In my eyes Kenny's signings / Comolli's overpaying is the reason we are at this low point.
Agree for our position and results last year but not this year. KD finished 8th and was in 2 cup finals winning 1 with the crap he bought. BR spent between 20-30m to improve the squad. So we cannot blame the former regime if we decline over last year.
Most of the teams above us spent big amounts. Spurs and Arsenal spent a lot of money, but they did have the luxury of selling their players for a lot. And United, Chelsea and city all spent a lot of money without offloading many players or making a profit. While Everton and Newcastle didn't spend to much. While we did spend more than Everton, Newcastle and Arsenal. We probably spent bout the same as spurs but they brought in much more quality because they had money from sales to spend, while City, United and Chelsea spent big dollars.
So it's not like we were the only team strengthening, others were too, and more so, because unlike us, they could sell their players because they were actually quality and sought after, unlike us, we couldnt get rid of any of our players except for Adam. By the sound of it we tried, but no teams wanted the [oops] that Camolli blew last years budget on.
I don't actually blame the owners, why would they waste money like that again. It was down to Kenny and Camolli to make the most of it, and they made one ugly mess of it. Which is costing us now.
It's not like we were the only team that spent money to strengthen, Rodgers had a battle from the go.
