I think you've completely missed the point of Man City's spending. It's that they pay massive wages, massive transfer fees, for players that don't even get a game.
If we remove the ones who are on reasonably high wages (i.e. first team wages, not Man City type, just decent) we now have a list of
Agger (Injury prone)
Aquilani
Aurelio
Cole
Doni
Insua
Jones
Jovanovic
Kyrgiakos
Poulsen
Maxi
Skrtel
If we remove the ones that we have spent big transfer fees on, we only have Aquilani left, who we didn't even have to pay high wages last year because he was loaned out. As for people that you include like Maxi, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Aurelio etc, they all played a fair amount of games for us.
it's not even close to the Man City situation.
Sorry, but I haven't missed a point at all! I haven't said that we have the same problem as City.
The problem for us is that we're signing 2:nd tier players at the very best, while at the same time City sign the likes of Agüero!
The players I mentioned on my "out list" are simply not LFC material, if we want to be somewhere near the top 4 position, while City can show a triple bench that beats ours by miles! Squad players - hah!
We also have problems with players like Cole, who definitely hasn't delivered what we need and did cost us nothing to sign! But is on a massive salary! How do we get rid of him before his contract expires?
