I think FSG deserve credit for the change in transfer strategy, we are now competing for top players and I kinda feel like the perception of LFC has changed a bit with the purchases of VVD, Keita and now Alisson. It tells other top players that we are here to compete as an upper echelon club with a top manager and the ability to bring in high quality players. However, i'm still concerned about the depth of the squad. We were literally running on fumes for the latter part of last season. two quality midfielders have come in with Keita and Fabinho but they have effectively replaced Can and Ox. Obviously the upgrade at the goal keeper position was an absolute must but returning to the issue of squad depth we have only technically added One outfield player in terms of numbers with 2 out and 3 in so we could quite possibly find ourselves in the exact same position this season, particularly if we make some progress in the domestic cups. It does worry me that we were in for a player like Fekir who was a clear replacement for Coutinho but since that feel through and The big money went for the keeper it seems now not to be a priority. I don't believe that Shakiri was brought in as an alternative to Fekir as they are very different players.
