Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has defended their lack of transfer activity this summer.
Liverpool's only summer signing remains central defender Ibrahima Konate, bought from RB Leipzig for £36m.
The club has focused resources on securing the future of key first-team names, while rivals Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United have spent significantly more on new attacking players.
"We cannot spend money we don't have," said Klopp.
Asked if he was surprised other clubs were spending heavily, Klopp said: "I'm not surprised because these clubs don't depend on this kind of thing, I think.
"We all know the situations at Chelsea, City, Paris St-Germain. What's happening at Manchester United, I don't know - I don't know how they do it.
"I'm never surprised about the financial power of City, Chelsea or United. I've been in the country long enough to know they always find a solution to do these things.
"You cannot compare to the other clubs, they obviously don't have any limits but we have limits and we were quite successful given the limits in the last two years."
He added: "For us, it's our way. We keep the team together, that's important as well.
"I know it's not as exciting as signing new players. People think that if you don't sign, you don't work - that's not the case.
"I know it's not as exciting, but if you're a real Liverpool fan you're excited about the news the club delivered in the last few weeks."
