Good read on the BBC site Champions League finalists Liverpool and Tottenham now worlds apart
It really is mind blowing how we were better than Liverpool just 2-3 years ago and the direction both clubs have taken. Liverpool have spent a Net sum less than or equal to us, and though that doesn’t tell the whole story it does show how mismanaged we have been to find ourselves 31 points behind after 21 games.
Liverpool used their CL final loss in 2017 as a springboard and showed the world they meant business by signing Fabinho, Shaqiri and Alisson that summer, while we did spend money I believe it was more stop gap or players we didn’t even know how to properly use, instead of signing players that fit a well defined system.
With some smart management and transfers can we bridge the gap or are we just looking at a generational team that will be impossible to catch even with smart transfers?
