There is money. We’ve spent money over last 3 years?
The wider point was that we’ve brought players in and spent money. But we haven’t sold anyone really. A few players here and there to add a bit of money but by not moving players on (for one reason or the other) if you just kept buying you’d end up in a situation like chelsea with 40 first team players trying to squeeze into a 25 man squad.
Net spend is important to the health of the football club.
Im sure if you compiled a list of money spent over last 10 years we’d be one of the highest behind the usual suspects. But remember we’ve also only had 1 manager for last 7 years. That makes a huge difference in transfer spend.
High manager turnover means each manager goes out and spends X amount buying their own players. They get sacked, new one comes in and says I need X to transform this team.
Weve had Klopp who has added slowly and the odd player each season so not to cause too much change.
Everyone knows what we need and I think like milk says, if the owners don’t put hand in pocket to land 2 big midfield targets this summer then I’ll worry. But to say they’ve not spent any more isnt true. It’s just they’ve spent much more wisely
Net spend means absolutely **** all. Unless your another in looking forward to the parade for the net spend trophy.
How much money the club generates should be used for how much we can afford, we generate a stupid amount but spend a fraction.
Why havnt we sold anyone?
Because the hangers on are worth noubt, but fsg are still trying to squeak out an extra few million. They'd rather keep a crock on the payroll absolute ****ing useless then go out and buy a replacement.
This comes to a head this summer when we've got multiple contracts up all at the same time, we could of quietly let ox, keita et Al move for a couple of million or even free to give us some space, but no, we demand over the odds for ****e, then wonder why our only fit 11 are constantly ****ed.
If they've spent wisely explain why our midfield consists of players who look like there running in cement? The 2 best midfielders we've got are kids?
Why our attack is only now starting to cone together mid-season.
Why yet again we are swapping matip and gomez about hoping one if them will be less ****e than the other.
How you consider that wise is beyond me.
It's been coming for years as well, people who are defending fsg have been saying its been coming, with nothing done. Yet they still somehow think there good for the club.
Every bit of success we've had is down to klopp, nothing to do either fsg, more despite them.
