"How the money is generated is irrelevant" Well thats quite an astonishing statement and is really the crux of our differing opinions. Because in my mind it is not just super relevant it is ultimately the difference between breaking the rules, cheating in fact or playing by the rules. If thats what you genuinely think then you are basically saying theres nothing wrong with financial doping!! Thats actually exactly what you are saying which is why were never going to see eye to eye. Liverpool's purchase of Allison and vVD were paid for by the sales of Coutinho and Ward alone, with money left over. So as "f*cking amazing" as BB finds it i consider that completely bona fide and shows financial accountability. They had to weaken themselves in order to reinvest. City's financial report for 2017 shows 220m quid accrued from 'other commercial activity'. How many barrels of oil is that out of interest? 1

Seriously mate, why shouldn't City be allowed to lead the way in financial doping? What are you on about now? Financial doping? More uneducated accusations. So come on then, you know the format on this forum, back up/substantiate your comment or be viewed as making idiotic statements.

Who are you accusing of breaking rules? If it's City (no doubt it is, can't help yourself) them stump up the facts if you are to be taken seriously. Your comment that refers to me seems once more to be a misunderstanding of my earlier comments, which were, i have no problem with liverpool or anyteam spending but i resent the outrage on here when we buy a player.

Nice try to keep talking about City in here and then we get accused of talking about City. More than happy to continue on the City thread should you wish

Swings and roundabouts. How the money is generated is irrelevant. The net effect on the market is the same and trying to justify it by saying the money came from previous player sales is just giving yourself (not you champs) an imaginary comfort blanket.

Bredbury Blue Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 Actually Wilia I'd like to the glory for stimulating the action on here these past few days, with my post accusing some on here of hypocrisy by puckering up to liverpool while always criticising City. Your welcome.

We won our first game of the season 5-0 aeay at Leicester following on from that. What a sport! How did you get on v Dortmund?

Do I have to do it differently to that? Actually, I WANT to do it differently. I would even do it differently if I COULD spend that money." Klopp asked about the Pogba comments that have been recirculated recently. "That's the problem with press conferences....whatever bullshit you say gets remembered" 1 3
wilai Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 LFC 1-3 BVB....Van Dijk with our goal. Two late goals cost us. Controlled the game but Solanke, Ojo and Moreno all missed sitters in 2nd half. Matip off injured early doors. Karius looks like he isn't even trying! He has to go! Pulisic was BVB's best player by a street.

Pulisic was BVB's best player by a street. we're nowhere near full strength but it was still a bit sloppy to concede the two goals we did. i'm really not bothered about pre-season matches, particularly commercial jaunts to places like the US, but it's nice to see keita looking lively. and no wonder klopp wants to sign pulisic.
