The gap was created in the 2018 summer
No - if that was the case then we would have bridged in the gap in the summer of 2019 given that they brought no one in and we spent £130 million.
The actual gap is in the quality of recruitment - that’s been the case for nearly five years. Their scouting committee is well above ours at present.
We have only added one real first team quality talent in the time and that was Son in 2015. They in comparison bought Salah for £34, Mane for £35, Robertson for £8, Fabinho for £40 million.
