Not that much lately. They are in it b/c they have the best manager in the league hands down.

Gonna have to disagree with you there. They were negative 45 million pounds in the transfer market including the late Mata mega-deal, which was not a deal they needed to get in order to fund the purchases they made four months prior.

And they were negative 80 million pounds the year before. Any time a team can buy Hazard and Oscar in the same year, they are big spenders.

True, you're aren't spending 150 million pounds and then 140 million pounds back to back like ten years ago, but lets not pretend you're not in the top two of the league in spending.

Most accomplished? Check.

I am 99% certain that if he took over Liverpool two years ago, we wouldn't be leading the league right now.

There are one or two that, given a couple of more years, will likely challenge his status as "best" (not that he'll still be at Chelsea by then) - and from teams with much less financial resources. BR (of course, since I'm a Liverpool fan) and I'm very interested to see what happens with Martinez.

Is there anything sadder than two cities fighting to see who gets to be little brother?
