    To be fair that's exactly how Klopp built Liverpool, 1 or 2 key signings each window till they became a force to be reckoned with. Doing it that way stops the accusations of buying the title which will inevitably come our way.

    However as I pointed out before our squad is a canny age with not a great amount of resale value in it. I think we need 2 quality signings plus a quality youngster as a minimum per window.

    It's why in telling people to forget this crap about nunez and Paqueta

    Nufc are a 10 year plan

    Think more like Harrison and nketiah

    I'll be surprised if we announce any signings before June 10th. I fully expect an announcement on sponsors to be made last few days of this month start of next month. If Saudia are not the main shirt sponsor then I would expect a partnership of some sort to be announced once planning permission goes in for Newcastle airport as part of PIF's external investments into the region. From what I hear they want to turn NCL into a MENA Hub requiring massive investment into the airport.

    Mate have some faith: these guys are not here to tickle the tastebuds.

    Minimum spend or 100m coming up I guarantee it.

    And the players we sign are massive upgrades on what we have.

    PIF have not come to attend the show. They ARE the show!

    I would take N'ketiah mate. I think he would make the perfect understudy for Wilson. I seen the Harrison links today and ashamed to admit I've not seen enough of him to form an opinion of my own.

    You have to delve deeper into some of this stuff. See some of these targets through the eyes of an agent. Throw them to a CL club now and potentially let them rot in reserves or send them to a club with a huge project where they get first team football and if they get fed up move to a bigger club for a large fee in the future.

    There is also 2 transfer fund pots.

    Pot number 1 - An annual transfer budget.
    Pot number 2 - Big name player becomes available and PIF want them for marketing purposes.

    Don't make me dig out your posts about the new owners my foolish friend.

    I have them in your portfolio but I want to give you the opportunity to yield.

    If they didn’t make the changes then we would have been.

    Your not comparing apples with apples my dear friend.

    It’s all about relativity!

    Don’t be negative. I’ve turned a corner and rather than asking me yield you should he asking yourself where your faith is.

    Firstly I haven't even said anything negative I've given you a fair assessment of what's likely.

    Secondly you spent all of January complaining about the new owners
