Liverpool FC widely regarded as the 2nd biggest club in the world I think would expect to be safe from relegation in Europe and winning the odd trophy.
My point is that these ridiculous transfer fees for ordinary players are the main reason we cannot bring in the quality of player we need to prosper.A player with a £35 million pound price tag is not gonna earn peanuts for wages so when signing on fees are inflated so are wages.Its not Mr Whelans fault L,pool spent silly money on Henderson,Carroll,Adam while Chelsea spent £50 million on Torres etc etc but it is the likes of Wigan who dont have the resources of most who feel the knock on effect.Every player suddenly thinks he,s worth his weight in gold and we struggle to get them to come to our club.
Just on your reply Edinburgh,what did the 55 mill spent contribute to Liverpool winning the CC ? Once Bellamy came on for Henderson L,pool were a different team and didnt Kuyt score within minutes of replacing Carroll? I just think that paying obscene amounts of money on ordinary players just because your club can afford it is having a real bad affect on the lesser clubs.
