How much did Liverpool spend?

How much have United wasted?

How much have Chelsea wasted?

I know what you're saying.

So many of your points are valid, but the billion pound spending is not one of them.

That is a team that's way better, Gary.

They can't create any wealth within their squad because when Arteta first took up, they took up the team at Arsenal.

They had a squad full of 27, 28-year-olds.

This is what Edu said as a sporting director.

27 and 28-year-olds who don't win.

And the reason they didn't win because they weren't good enough.

And the reality then is that Arsenal couldn't sell any of those players.

They couldn't generate any wealth.

Liverpool have spent 400 million on a tight winning team and they're not even going to finish in the Champions League places.

So the money reference doesn't add up to me.

All the other points you make certainly do in terms of the style of play.

Okay, fair enough.

While everyone's obsessing about the Christmas season, you've got a different season on your mind.

One where red noses come from shouting your support in the crisp, cold, pitch-side air.

Where the roaring fire is in your belly, not your sitting room.
