Liverpool's first team of...Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Aurelio, Maxi, Mascherano, Aquilani, Gerrard, Kuyt and Torres still comes no where near that figure. You could still even chuck in Skrtel, Kyriagkos, Insua, Lucas, Benayoun, Riera and N'Gog and still fall short of that figure.
Bojinov, Benjani, Caicedo and Jo we're all bought pre - takeover. Tevez was around £26m.

Santa Cruz was one of the reasons Hughes was sacked. His medical records showed that he still had a problem so the transfer was initially rejected at board level. Hughes eventually got his way and Santa Cruz repaid him by being constantly injured.
