They must have spent about £400m this summer on transfer fees, lol.
Good time to spend after not spending much last few seasons and the league looks winnable in the near term given City's decline so it's a great chance to win some more titles. A lot was made back in sales as well.

The Wirtz signing concerns me though. With Isak and Ekitike coming in, it might have been better to just get a workhorse Reijnders type player for 50-60m to add some quality midfield depth rather than splash out on a #10 who might disrupt the balance of the team.

Would be epic if Liverpool go trophyless after the spending they had. They had a summer on the level of state funded clubs. Never again should they complain about City.

Their net spend is currently at 120m Euros for the past two summers.. and one of their players died.

Not quite the same way as state backed teams have spent over the years.

Liverpool have actually lower net spent than Arsenal this summer, because they sold a lot.
Plus, they spent close to 0 last summer, so there is nothing scandalous there.

Actually, Arsenal have a quite HIGH net spent the last 5 years or so, where Liverpool is relatively low:

The average age of players brought in is 22.5 by Liverpool also.

While we have Barca giving out big contracts to players in their mid 30s that never get anything back for and cant renew them to free up FFP.

Nuno sacked by Marinakis, Big Ange to replace him.

Not sure about this, it's like Pep taking over midseason a team build for Mou.

Data shows just FOUR full-time clubs are ‘Regulator ready’ - Brighton & Hove Albion, Cambridge United, Carlisle United and AFC Wimbledon

Almost half the Premier League and EFL clubs have just one month’s cash reserves

In what is a huge wake-up call for the football industry, the 2025 Fair Game Index published today (September 10) also paints a potential financial doomsday scenario as almost half of the clubs across the top four leagues are ‘running on empty’. The research shows that 43 clubs have less than one month’s cash reserves to cover their operating costs.

Based on the findings, Brighton & Hove Albion are the only club from both the Premier League and the Championship to be considered ‘Regulator Ready’.
