Go fuck yourselves FSG

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

The summer we bought Jota we got £23.5m for Brewster great deal. More money in.

Solanke, Ings, Ward = £50m plus. Hoever’s part in the Jota payment plan? 
We all know money has come in whatever your thoughts on spending are.

Aren't our transfers done in instalments nowadays? For instance Jota is 40 million at 10 million per season I read somewhere.

A lot are paid that way I believe.

Surely we could afford a few more players on HP then?

I’d been broadly supportive of the ownership until a year or so ago, but they’ve pissed away most of the goodwill. I’m also sick of fans saying “ooohh, we only spend what comes in and the wage bill is big!” as though it’s perfectly normal for any club, let alone one of the biggest in the world, to have a negative net-spend over several years, LET ALONE during a period of huge success.

 

It’s fucking weird and absolutely not conducive to maintaining a spot at the top table. Another thing I hear is that “Klopp likes a smallish squad” which, if true, is fine, but if he likes one that remains in stasis and ages together to the point of impotency, then perhaps it was never going to work out long-term after the CL and title win. I struggle to believe he’s happy with the tools he’s been given since winning the title.

I think klopp quite likes a challenge. He's not stupid and knows if we bought good players it would increase our chances of winning. But I sense he's not against the idea of trying to be brilliant despite the boardroom contribution. 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Without player investment we won’t be playing CL football after the next few years.

[Harry Squatter]

Everyone says we will end up like Arsenal. At least Arsenal have actually spent some money despite being out of the Champions League for a few seasons. 

 

But qt least we've got a new training ground and the loans might keep getting paid to pay off the two stands they took 11 years to build. 

[Butch]

Anyone else thinking things are going sour over this mo business or lack of? Said it all seeing Jurgen sat down in the second half, he gave up don't blame him. If fsg don't sort it out with mo then we might lose Klopp too. The lampshade and couch scenario again. Cunts.

Thankfully for us! He definitely seems to be a glass half full type of bloke. 

[skend04]

We are the late Wenger version of Arsenal. Happy to get top 4 and anything else is a bonus. Heck just being in the PL brings in a shit load of money. There's literally no reason to splash the cash until it becomes really necessary.

 

And I for one minute don't believe that Klopp is at odds with the scenario. He's got enough credit for the turnaround in our fortunes to go out and demand players but it doesn't happen and even when we have done they're left on the subs bench for underperforming players. Tsimikas and Robertson for example.

[Paulie Dangerously]

Should have brought the anny road end extension on at half time.

In which case loyalty would be his Achilles’ heel; the thing that means he falls short of the likes of Ferguson and, for all the monetary privilege, Guardiola. *If* that’s the case, I think it’s a real shame because it means he’s blown an amazing chance win a fair bit more than he has.
 

Personally, I’m not convinced he’s happy with it, and just isn’t the sort of person to play hardball with his bosses, but I might be wrong.

No legs.

[Anubis]

I don't think Klopp will extend his tenure. I think he's serious about taking a break and I think he may want a fresh start in a different league afterwards. can't blame him for that.

 

The post-Klopp landscape will be interesting. With the current levels of investment in the team we'll be trying to scrap for third/fourth along with Utd, Spurs and Arsenal. Worst case scenario is that Howe keeps the Barcodes up and they start to do a City. Best case scenario is Howe fucks it up and the Saudi's go all in on Inter, while Newcastle becomes a portfolio club to buy players and loan them to Inter.

That is very optimistic, even if Newcastle crash and burn. I’ll be thrilled if we can keep up with the likes of Aston Villa and Leicester while spending like Huddersfield.

[Scooby Dudek]

I am no longer angry just resigned to the situation that we don't buy players and top 4 with minimum outlay is the sole ambition of the owners.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

He are the really good players we have

 

Alisson, Kelleher*Alexander-Arnold. Van Dijk. Matip. Konate* Robertson. Tsimikas* Fabinho. Mane. Jota. Salah.* debatable depending on your take.

Squad players taking into account age, injuries, transfers and current ability

 

Gomez*. Philips. Williams.N. Thiago* Henderson* Milner. Jones. Elliot* Keita. Chamberlain.

Minamino. Origi. * Again depending on personal take. Apologies if I missed anyone.

 

We all know where we need players, 3 of them minimum. Will we get them in the next few windows, without selling Salah and any others we want to keep or be able to move the dross? Something is going to give for good or bad. Summer will be crucial and I’m not expecting much. Hope I’m proved spectacularly wrong eating a huge slice of humble pie and wiping egg off my face for days.

They're going to get a rude awakening when Klopp fucks off then.

 

Watch us spend a fortune when we get another no mark in like Rodgers.

Loyalty is absolutely his achilles heel but also his greatest strength.  He hasn't sold a single established first team player that didn't want to leave (bar Benteke and Sahko). Essentially once you're one of his boys you remain one of his boys forever. He done an interview with a Northern Irish BBC journalist who's name escapes me and he spelt it out then. He prides himself on the lifelong relationships he has with his boys. Bobby, Ox, Sadio, Naby, the list goes on, these guys are not being sold against their will on Jurgens watch. It just won't happen. You leave when your contract is up, if you want to leave or if you rock the boat. Other than than that the contract is sacred.
