Not just the transfer fee when buying players. What about the silly wages a lot of them now demand.
 
Not sure why people are moaning about the money?

It's the new era of Premier Cash League.

Money hardly matters <laugh>

'SuperMane'

Said this on saints board. Whether it's 30m or 35m makes no real difference to me personally, unless that extra 5m stops us from getting another target.
 
As long as you are streaming and not buying a mane kit no it doesn't matter.

If you have to buy a kid a kit or go to games or pay for sky TV its a bit of a waste.

I suppose if lfc said right thats it now we've spent our lot everyone would be happy?

I mean we started out <10mil for 3 guys who might be decent then blow 36 mil on this guy... like... he improves us but i can think f quite a few for half that that would have improved us.

Like who, that are realistic?

Klopp clearly thinks he will and is worth it, that's good enough for me.

Plus the window is still firmly open.

Like who? for 36 mil

wow i get asked this a lot... and every year i seem to do it and point to the next guy who's huge.

in 2014 i said greizmann. At the time it MIGHT have been realisitc if the wages were right. I also begged for erikson. he's not bad.

So 2016... who would i buy... moura for one. filipe anderson (both would be the same price though)

Karim Bellarabi will be joining dortmund to replace mkhitaryan.

I mean fine he's 36mil and the worlds gone made ok but we've already been linked to 2 or 3 croats for example who could be cheaper.

Cheaper but any better? Seen Markovic struggle when coming in, he was cheaper. Lallana was cheaper as wel.

Yeah ah we can all point to people that will be cheaper but does it mean they will be better though?

Our whole scouting system seems to need an overhaul to be honest, far too lazy at identifying targets before they have played in prem or for a big club. But Klopp has a decent enough transfer record and if he's given green light for mane at a high price then h le obviously rates him well enough.

I'd rather we try to add a very good player like mane than take another couple of risks on two 20 year olds for £15m each who both might flop and we end with no one decent.
