What a truly pathetic league the EPL is.  If any other league was spending like they are, their fans would be getting on their high horses like they did when Real/Barca were the biggest spenders 15 years ago.  But now it's okay, apparently. 
Not only is it okay infact, it's seen as a positive.  And taking the piss out of 'broke' Barca is the staple diet of the day. 
It's akin to a Thai hooker in a expensive fur coat, standing next to her old, rich, foreign John, taking the piss out of the girl working hard at McDonalds.
