They spent over 200m on players last year and spent a fair bit the year before so theywont spend that again this summer obviously.

They brought in 2 of the most sought after young players and will give them a chance in the first team like what more do fans want?

They haven't really done anything extraordinary. They bought a distressed asset for peanuts, and screwed around with Hodgson and Rodgers before lucking into Klopp because of the type pf personality he is, no other top managers were looking at Liverpool struggling to make top 4 and thinking that's the club for me.

That redevelopment of Anfield was part of their purchasing agreement that they would commit to 60k fans either in anfield, or what was supposed to have been moving to a new stadium. I'm happy with staying, but they are only doing what they should be.

They spent that money because of player sales, just like every time they've spent any real money it's been on the back of sales.

After a season where our stock has never been higher, and with the opportunity to add some desperately needed top class to our squad because our midfield is good, but functional and lacking in creativity, and most importantly we have no real replacements for the front 3. They made all the promises post CL final, and then...nothing.

We've taken an inexpensive, moneyball punt on a couple of kids. I wish them luck, but there's no way in hell we get the same points as last season, or finish 1st with our business this summer.

Finishing 2nd to city is absolutely no crime, but finishing 2nd, getting record revenue/profits, then sitting on their hands all summer is about money.

That 200m potential nike deal is because of Klopp and what he's done with limited resources, not FSG. No Klopp, we're fighting around 6th still and nike aren't knocking on our door then.
