Moyes seemed to find Lescott for around 5 million, Ferdinand costs United 30 million. In my personal opinion it's better buisness by Moyes. Truth is, doesn't matter how you dress it up. Money doesn't win/lose a title. You can have all the money in the world doesn't mean you'll win the league
Lescott hasnt won the league title Ferdinand has. Money does matter, Chelsea needed a lot to get the title and no one here is denying the simple fact that chelsea are a force because they have the money to buy what they need. Utd have signed quality players but they also needed to replace there team of the nineties, they still havent done that, when scholes retires they have to replace him and it will take a massive amount to do that, just like it will us to replace Gerrard.
