This is what frightens me about LFC. We’ve been after a player – Dahoud – for ages but are regularly told he isn’t for sale or would cost well over £25m. Now, when he just might become available, we seem to be switching our sights to Yarmalenko who would be significantly cheaper. Remember Dele Ali and Erikson, both of Spurs? We wanted both – with Dele Ali being a fanatical Reds fan – but we kept refusing to up our bids in the absurd hope the selling clubs would reduce their asking price and, on both occasions, Spurs jumped in, paid the full amount and got two of the best midfielders in the country! And here we are again, penny-pinching and about to lose Dahoud to Juve or anybody else who doesn’t count every penny.
Similarly, we almost got Begovic, from Stoke at that time, and he even mentioned in the press how he was eager to meet his new team-mates at Anfield. Then, a day later, Mignolet was signed for £2m LESS . . . and the rest, as they say, is history.
We’ve got to get out of this habit of watching every penny because, in just those three examples, we’ve lot some great players. Just imagine how high in the league we’d be with Ali and Co. in the team?

Forget it. It will never happen as long as Klopp is still wearing the same old pair of eye glasses.
