As Brian says, You don’t always need big name players to reach your high achievements, Klopp has never done so in the past at clubs, so y would he change now! Besides, u don’t need a better example than Leicester City, all you need r players who believe in you and have hunger and desire. YNWA

Again, nobody mentions buying a team of super-stars as we’ve already got the basis of a very good team but two or three GOOD purchases now just might give us the push we need, the impetus, to make up the gap on the SEVEN teams currently better than us. I don’t care if people pull, push, ride on or blow-up the bloody train, I just want us to make a difference to next season so other teams are at least wary of us . . . after they’ve spent their £100m budgets. That ain’t gonna happen if we’ve got a team full of mad-keen twenty-year-olds with pictures of Thomas The Tank Engine on their shirts! Sod bloody trains! I’d sort of hope that giving somebody £100K every week might just make them willing to play with passion for the fans and the club . . .
Teams need a balance of youth and experience and we could cope with another couple of 25-year-olds at the peak of their footballing powers NOW!

I’ve double-checked what I wrote and there is definitely no mention of buying useless players or wasting money. I sort of expected people to think along the lines of spending money wisely and frugally on the best talent available, be it players at the peak of their powers or young players just coming through.
The comment about “need to know what you’re buying” is rather strange for two reasons. Firstly, I’d assume the person choosing the new players had a decent footballing knowledge of who or what he was getting and, secondly, it is harder to know what you are getting with young players, many of whom look good as prospects but don’t do what is expected of them. Buying potential is always a risk.
With twenty-odd relatively poor seasons is it wrong to think about buying two or three players currently at the peak of their footballing prowess – such as Hector and Higuaín – to give us a chance of a trophy before I fall of the perch?

In reply to RED PHIL. You can spend all you want but you need to know what you're buying. The proper fresh ingredients bakes the perfect cake and you don't find it in a butcher shop now do you!

In reply to RED PHIL. Having the best players does not mean or always bring success. A few seasons ago Real Madrid did just that and failed dreadfully. We need players with talent,desire,hunger and a willingness to build and achieve a life long legacy.as Klopp said help push the train not ride it.Most players have proven their abilities where they are and can go no further. Remember good young players are coming through .

Of all the teams in the world, it happening to my LFC. Since the day come to know football, my love has been LFC. have been wondering how we managed to fall from grace to grass and all this time, the owners and management of LFC are satisfied against the wishes and hopes of the supporters to frustrate the team eternally. If i had the flair of Lionel Messi, the effect of Ronaldo and the efficiency of Lewandowsyi, and at the same time Liverpool fc has been my boyhood club, there is only one thing I would do in a time like this when the team is at least having one of the best football coaches in the business. And that will be to come and play my best football and send the club back to Champions League if that is where i feel they should be. Lewandoswski's condition to the team and the coach he claims he love is compared to a boy friend who tells the girlfriend ''i will marry you now if you become the queen of England''. If he really loved her, why didn't he told her ''i will marry you and together we will team up to see to it that you become the queen of England? Can somebody tell me what love is?

So that’s how it is, you’ll only join us if the current squad of players gets us back into the CL, so that you can come in a take the place of another player who helped us to get back in… Glory Hunters not willing to help you get to the top…

If his one condition was that I had to sell my wife and children into slavery I’d be bundling them into my car – with the wife no doubt gagged to stop her moaning – and speeding towards the nearest slave auctions but, sadly, us getting into the CL might take a little longer! As mentioned elsewhere, on this subject, IF we sign superb players like Hector – who was, once again, superb against Poland – we can make the progress necessary to ultimately bring about our signing of players such as Lewendowski but, currently, I don’t see that level of commitment by the owners or management.
I’ll be disappointed if we spend less than £100m this summer, as the other top teams WILL be spending that much, and they will be buying players like Pogba, Griezemann, etc. and not players the vast majority of LFC fans, if they are being hones, have never heard of or know very little about.
This club is HUGE. We are certainly in the three or four top-supported clubs in the world with a fan-base spread around the globe. To prove that look, on YouTube, at the 93,000 LFC fans singing YNWA at the Melbourne Cricket Ground a few years ago, I’ve ever seen such support even at Anfield! A complete sea of red shirts and scarves. Brilliant.
We’ve got to catch, and then overtake, seven teams this coming year and we won’t do that by being tentative in the transfer market. We need to lay a marker down to tell the rest of the football world that LFC mean business this coming year . . .
Getting rid of the players we don’t really need would bring fifty million to the already huge transfer kitty. Let’s spend it!
