Clichy and Toure for under a million between the pair makes Mr. Houllier look rather dim, considering Gerard's supposed knowledge of French and African football (buying a few rubbish ones).

Ferguson was good in the market a few years ago, apart from saving a fortune by bringing up the kids, Solksjaer was only about a million or so. There's a strong case for saying that his judgement's got worse the more money he's had to spend, as he seems to feel the need to buy big proven players rather than canny buys for the future.
