Value For Money? £73.5m Chelsea Trio’s Stats Make Mockery Of Liverpool Spending Spree

Posted by
Cesc Fabregas Chelsea

Liverpool (65m)

Brendan Rodgers Liverpool

Mario Balotelli (0 goals, 0 assists)

Adam Lallana (0 goals, 0 assists)

Rickie Lambert (0 goals, 0 assists)

Lazar Markovic (0 goals, 0 assists)

The numbers make pretty grim reading for Liverpool fans, with their summer signings yet to make any significant impact in what has proven a difficult start to the season and life without Luis Suarez. The Reds have spent £3m more on attacking players than Chelsea have, and still have no goals or assists to show for it for any of these four new additions. In fairness, Lambert and Markovic have not been regulars so far, while Balotelli joined late and Lallana has been injured, but it could require some turnaround from this quartet to prove as smart signings as Chelsea’s new-boys.
