LoLz. You cunts wouldnt know suffering.
You’d hope that lads that have won every trophy going earn more than lads that have a Charity Shield medal.
Only if their club does right by them.
You earn your reward after you’ve won it all. You don’t hand out tens of millions to Cavani and his agent to drift towards retirement
Just a shame the club wouldnt reward them.
True. I’d agree with FSG and their measured approach. There’s far more satisfaction winning without spending mammoth money. I’d imagine it’s a very hollow feeling for the elite coterie by comparison.
Now FSG have been very fortunate that Jurgen Klopp was available in October 2015. He’s papered over a lot of cracks with his shrewd management. Realistically we’d barely have played in the Champions League during this period without him, never mind made 3 finals in it. Apparently Jurgen Klopp has spent a fee on just 4 defenders since his arrival in 2015 and two of those have been Robbo (€8 million) and the Greek Scouser (€12 million). It’s staggering what he’s achieved considering this.

He also tried everything to pull the plug on the Salah deal for some shit German player instead.
He got desperately lucky and seems to have no eye for a player.
Why was he lucky? He agreed with Edwards and they signed Salah.
I don’t think they were really that close to signing Julian Brandt but if they did realistically Klopp would have transformed him into a fabulous footballer too. He’s an excellent coach.
He has no eye for a player alright. Only plucked the two best full-backs in the league (2018-2022) from the academy and Hull for €8 million. Then you see the development of players like Sadio Mane, Mo Salah, Firmino and Jota under his tutelage. He’s a genius really.
Robbo was free because he was essentially swapped for Kevin Stewart. Greek Scouser won us the FA Cup. Unreal

He’s talking jibberish. Klopp hasn’t an eye for a player apparently. Same fella plucked Kagawa straight from Japan for €350,000 and Lewandowski from Poland for €3.5 million. It’s a pity that Man United ruined Kagawa.
this is the correct wage bills here, LFC is understated as its still not clear if the staff that the Government were paying during Covid are back on the payroll

managers/coaches don’t sign players you dolt
They definitely have a major input in the signings. Do you think Pep just takes whatever players the scouts suggest to him? In any case Klopp transforms these rough diamonds into gems.
didnt he spent world record fees on a keeper & a defender?

Phil Coutinho windfall paid for those two.
