The FSG model.

[Marko121]

Effectively, we have.

Well we're certainly not in the business of winning trophies anymore. Not about the actual football for FSG

[Moo]

Who have they sold other than Suarez? Bearing in mind they managed to get another year out of him when it looked like his head was out of the door.

Torres, Reina, Suarez, and probably Sterling, in probably less than 5 years. Who will it be in year 6? Skrtel? Coutinho? Sturridge? Ibe?

[moof]

Yeah, Torres leaving is probably the best bit of business we've ever done and Reina was finished.

 

Where have they 'supported our tactic of selling our best player every year'?

[Mr T]

Fairly obvious now that when Rodgers let slip about his par comment this is also endorsed by the owners. We are now a 5-7th club and that's OK by the owners. A bit shit really.

[MokTheAfflicted]

We won't win anything with Yanks in charge. We are now a feeder club for Europe's elite all thanks to fucking Americans and the parasite David Moores

[Duff Man]

They are fucking clueless and not arsed anymore either.

 

It's getting harder and harder not to come to that conclusion.

[RazorBack]

They don't make us very happy. Probably they'd do better if they knew or had people who know a thing or two about running and managing a football club. Probably everyone who is responsible can fit into this description. 

 

How they make me feel:

 

Ma nabijem i njih na kurac šupićko materino, bajo moj, jel to jasno?

Vrlo jasno.

FSG could do a lot of things better (Step 1: Sort out the fucking transfer committee, Step 2: Bin Ayre, Step 3:.....) but to wish for Hicks and Gillette is just dumb and weakens whatever other valid points you may have.

The on the pitch stuff seemed to work under them though, Im simply pointing out that even them running us into the ground behind the scenes it wasnt affecting or holding as back as much as fsg decisions and policies. Thats how bad they are, we had a similar spend budget each year as we now do and competed with the top teams, the chelseas and so on maybe up until the last year of their reign when things seemed to spill over. Only when they empowered purslow to run his train of bullshit over rafa as pursestrings were tightened due to the financial noose of remortgaging our debt or their debt closing in.

Its not a preference for one or the other, both are awful american owners one on the pitch one off it. Dellboys in suits with no idea about the game thinking theyre so smart.

[VladimirIlyich]

Could the stadium redevelopment be affecting our playing decisions,if,as many are hinting,these owners are not putting their own money into the club?

[waddy78]

Possibly, I don't mind  the Milner transfer he is a good reliable player, but Bogdan on a free is a bit desperate and this Trippier from Burnley is shite the transfers if they are true look worse than last season so far.

 

Although Kovacic would be a good buy.

[Section_31]

Anyone else get the feeling FSG might be looking to sell soon? 

 

The stadium expansion to add some quick, easy value (the equivelent of getting a new fitted kitchen), not plowing any new money in, Henry not even turning up for the Rodgers debrief, seemingly no spends without money in first. 

 

The whole Rodgers things, particularly the way it's been handled, feels pretty half arsed. 

 

FSG have fucked up in the past, but they've always at least seemed to want the best for their investment, everything in the last few months feels like they're just not that bothered. 

[TheHowieLama]

Or their investment is kicking ass where it counts.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Stadium upgraded, rest on tick over. Even the stadium upgrade is corporates glued onto a past-its-best structure. It's all half-arsed.

[Liverpool lad]

I am going to glory hunt. Going to support another team and geg in on their success

[Grinch]

The stadium upgrade is a sham.  It's simply not enough seats and will still see us lagging behind a number of clubs.  Paying a fortune to expand when we know it's not possible to ever get Anfield as one of the best stadiums about is just setting the club back years.

 

LFC needs a new stadium, Parry & Moores knew this in the 90's, nothing has changed.

Expensive tick over.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Expensive tick over.

I doubt FSG will go hungry from owning us.

[Denny Crane]

Milan sold half their club for more than FSG bought us for.

 

Milan don't own their stadium and Italy has fundamental problems that they are trying to resolve.

 

So there are buyers out there.

 

One of the conditions of the sale by Berlusconi was that a good size transfer kitty be made avail by the new partner.

 

FSG will at least double their money for sticking an extension on and a bit of paint.

[Megadrive Man]

At least we will finally get to see a rock solid defence.

They certainly didn't buy us to keep, I think they probably have been shocked and disappointed that they haven't nailed down a CL spot with the money invested, They have been behind the curve since they took on the club and out-spent at every turn by City and Chelsea, With Utd's resources and a resurgent Arsenal and to some extent Spurs they are further away from the top 4 elite than ever, I'm sure we're for sale at a price,   

[Cardie]

I doubt FSG will go hungry from owning us.

 

They're not raking the money in either, lots of effort to break even.
