Moore:

maybe naive but I'm not looking at my competitor - let's call City a competitor - spending this, therefore I need to spend that regardless of the quality of the players? That makes no business sense to me. I trust Michael implicitly to do a value proposition of a particular player, based on the data analytics we have on them.

<wah>

So its michael edwards handing klopp

Keane, clichy and salah or someone like mahrez on the grounds that his 6 year old speadsheet says so.

Mark my words.... come august there could be hugely unhappy lfc fans when city and utd have hugely improved sides and we have signed what amount to cast offs.

As i have said many times i have zero faith in this guy and my only hope is klopp will tell them to get lost instead of walking himself.

Scout? What are you smoking.....

Edwards never scouts. He types fm style stats into his spreadsheet alongside cheap wages and comes up with an answer.

Hes rejected van dijk once already at 10mil you know.....

Nah you're wrong MITO, Edwards bought in all the gems

Coutinho, Sturridge, Can, Matip, Mane

All the flops were bought by brenden - balotelli, markovic, mignolet etc etc

There's no fool proof way of buying the players you need to win the league. Even Chelsea with all their dosh, who can get just about anyone they choose, don't buy win the league every year.

I would say we did win the league when our dosh was sloshing around but alas this is no more. We have been splashing still but compared to City and United we are paupers
 
We've been very hit and miss over the past few years. A combination of poor scouting and dysfunctional backroom partnership.

We now have a manager and a group of scouts who are fully aligned. Last summer, you can argue that it was a success. Let's hope for even better this summer.
 
But would you agree that you can still get anyone you want?

If you mean would they come to chelsea, i think we can get 1 or 2 targets. If you mean by can we go out and buy who we want with unlimited money, i think Roman has put a stop to that and if either City, United, Real go bidding, they would outbid and outpay us
