But we don't have a naming rights deal in place.
Could you dig these figures out for me please?
Milner doesn't set the world alight but he's relatively versatile, and has a terrific attitude. And I think he has more strings in his bow than a number of our CMs, and I don't think he is injury-plagued.
But will do within the next 12 months at least.
Just google Deloitte money league.
As Milner well the only comparable CM we have is Dembele and it isn’t even a contest.
Well, we ought to, but at the moment we are spending a great deal less on wages than Liverpool. Maybe the stadium will even things up for us, maybe it won't. Liverpool still have global appeal that we cannot reach.
Do you mean that Milner is better than all of our CMs, with the exception of Dembele?
I am trying to cut you some slack here, I am trying to bring a bit of balance to the party. I am not calling you a moron, I have agreed with some of what you have had to say. I posted the figures I found. I think it is a poor show that you are refusing to do likewise.
Right,
Ossie Wembley
. I found the Deloitte stuff. We are using the same figures. Their revenue was about 20% greater than ours, but they spent about £80m more on wages.
I can only offer my own experience, but every morning I rise, stand naked in my front garden, let the sun’s rays bathe my scotum and read aloud from The Domesday Book.
Again we don’t know what our payroll is at the moment because of the impact of the new contracts we have issued. That is going to have a massive effect on this. Liverpool’s commercial reviewed may be greater than ours - whereas the NDP will easily outstrip match day revenues. It will balance itself out.
Jesus there you go - it just required a google search, not hard.

As for Milner - well he can’t be compared against Dier or Victor because he isn’t a DM. He is comparable to Dembele and there is no contest.

We have given a number of our players improved deals, but every club is doing that, including Liverpool. And they have signed players with big reputations in the interim, and are paying them very well indeed. Alisson, Fabinho, Keita and van Dijk are on big, big money. Wijnaldum is reportedly on £90k a week. Henderson (yeah, Henderson) on £100k.
And Liverpool have added 8,000 seats to their stadium, and if I am not mistaken, want to expand their ground even further.
And obviously I am hoping that our new stadium will be the great leveller, but we are going to be saddled with a heck of a mortgage.
I think Milner is a good utility option, and he pops up with some goals and assists, too. Dembele is always injured or highly compromised when he features, Wanyama is injury-ravaged. Dier is pissing a lot of people off, myself included. Sissoko also features in the middle of the park for us from time to time. And we needn't go down that rabbit hole.

We have just made Poch one the highest paid managers in the game and we are adjusting virtually all of the playing squad with new deal ( clearly to reflect the added capacity due to the new stadium) . No club has engaged in that level increase - certainly not within that time frame.
As for their additional 8000 seats - it means absolutely nothing. The revenue generator is the corporate facilities and we light years ahead of them in that area. They can expand the ground all they want but they don’t have the ticket pricing capacity that we have nor do they have access to the London corporate/commercial market that we do.
Again the differential between the respective clubs financial capacity is that great - we are both in the same catergory of clubs.
You didn't "defend Tottenham all summer" you vehemently attacked anybody who had a different opinion to yours. You just defended your idiotic idea of how things were going to pan out and now your delusions have burst and you're turning on Poch and the players, as predicted
Even still I don't think there was much controversial about his statement. Pretty much just said what every fan has been thinking
Try again, cunto
At least now you and your bird can finally enjoy that holiday together

Come on, Klippityklopp has been backed by FSG. Salah, Mane, van Dijk, Alisson and Naby Keita, they're spending left right and center and could afford to let Coutinho go (wasn't even their best player either). Not to mention they offer much larger wages than we do
And £60 million on a keeper. Tell me again how Poch and Klopp's situations are comparable
Son, Sanchez, Moura and Sissoko - Poch has been given funds to spend so let’s not pretend that he hasn’t that he hasn’t broken our transfer record twice. As for Coutinho well he was their best player - it’s why he joined Barcelona and cost them £140 million. The wages argument hasn’t already been done.
True. The only chairman to not spend a penny in a transfer window is very unlikely to pay anything close to 75m for a defender.
Net spend, mate
That discussion has already been had - they are not large net spenders.
