The 2020-21 season hasn't started but the banter has started early among the managers.
Chelsea has been the most active club so far in the 2020 summer window. The west London outfit have spent over 200m pounds so far with likes of Hakim Ziyech, Benjamin Chilwell, Malong Sarr, Thiago Silva, Timo Werner have already joined the club.
The season will kick off on Saturday 12 of September 2020. Although Frank Lampard side will pay two days later with a clash against Brighton Hove Albion on Monday night at 8pm.
Liverpool manager, Mikel Arteta Jurgen Klopp has slammed the transfer deals of Chelsea following their means of spending in the market so far.
The German head coach told BBC Radio Five Live: "Clubs are in different situations and we are living in uncertainty in the world. For some clubs, it seems to be less important how uncertain the future is because they are owned by countries, owned by oligarchs and that is the truth. We are a different kind of club.
"We reached the Champions League final two years ago, won it the following year and won the Premier League by being the club we are, we cannot change that overnight and say 'now we want to behave like Chelsea'."
Klopp has won four trophies as manager of Liverpool since he came on board from Borussia Dortmund.
This summer, the Reds have only signed Kostas Tsimikas from Olympiacos for £11 million ($14m) last month.
He added:"We always want to improve the squad but there are different ways - one way is to sign new players and the other way is to work together, improve the things you were good in and try to nullify the things you are not good in. That is football. No one wants to talk about training and only about signings."
