How Liverpool's Transfer Spending Compares
On the eve of this season, Liverpool manager Rafa Bentiez bemoaned his side's lack of financial power. However, an analysis of the spending habits of the ‘Big Four' since his appointment in June 2004 shows that the Spaniard has outspent Sir Alex Ferguson by £80m. Furthermore, when money raised through player sales is taken into account, Benitez' net spending dwarves Ferguson's by £95m and only Chelsea have spent more on player recruitment during the same five-year period.
