      It's not just that. Consider the wealth of experienced talent BVB has to offer a younger player to learn from compared to Liverpool who are full of mediocre novices by comparison. Look at our best players and how much European experience do they have? How many times have they been involved in a title chase? A young player can learn a lot more from being in BVB's side and an experienced player has a lot more equal talent around him. Let's be honest, we no longer compete with the likes or Real, Barca, Munich, Chelsea, City, United. We don't even compete with Arsenal or Spurs, Athletico or Milan. We go after targets no other top club in Europe is after then declare we secured our marquee signing for the Summer. That's the FSG way of doing business.

      Although to be fair mate this current Dortmund team have hardly won much, a bit like ourselves.

      Lewandowski, Gundogan etc have all left.

      The whole idea was that the agents are pushing some of they're younger clients towards the German league in favor of City, Chelsea United or any of the big clubs in the PL because they simply have to no time to mature as players they have to hit the ground running or get booed off the pitch whereas in all but Bayern the clubs and supporters have a different idea and accept that youth and mistakes go hand in hand...why FSG would be part of this question as they are a part of every post you write is a question only you can answer but I don't think they have anything to do with the attitudes of club/supporters in comparing the PL and the Bundesliga.

      Here I thought Jürgen didn't like to spend tons of money to build a team.

      You know what - I'm sure we were lectured on that very subject buddy. Perhaps the experts got that one wrong. 🤔

      Laughably the club have got Melissa Reddy to put out a story that we were not interested when it's clear he rejected us for Dortmund.

      Pathetic we can't even attract in reality a youngster who has not done much at all yet!



      Yes what an embarrassment that a players chooses to stay in the country where he currently lives and joins a top team probably on a par with ours. Behave yourself, there was always a good chance that would be his preferred choice. Some of you guys really need to realise that not every player in the world is desperate to play for us.

      I thought we had cooled off our interest in Dahoud since the summer? Maybe its no great loss if Klopp has other options up his sleeve.

      Take it up with Klopp.
      He's the one who said it.

      I don't have  to take it up with anyone. I don't  have his personal number anyway so  I'll just say it on here.

      I never expected we'd be in a position to sign him with Bayern's interest being well known.

      I've seen us being linked with Max Meyer again, he could be our alternative? Yet another alternative that could be more expensive than our 'first choice' target :D.

      This policy of trying to convince us plebs that they are monitoring players is becoming a bit tedious eventually the PR machine will realise the mugs they are trying to convince are not that stupid.

      At this rate they'll eventually run out of 'potential targets' to pimp out..soon enough they'll be heading back to their favorite feeder club..I've heard Gabbiadini is running hot :)

      Let's see if it turns out to be true...

      Put it this way, it'd be the least surprising thing ever to find out Brandt has signed for someone else while we aggressively 'monitored' him.

      Liverpool transfer news and rumours: James Rodriguez to snub Liverpool for Man United?

      Liverpool have no chance of signing Real Madrid star James Rodriguez, according to the Manchester Evening News.

      The Colombian looks set to leave the Bernabeu this summer and has attracted interest from a number of English clubs.

      But the MEN say James will snub Liverpool in favour of a switch to Manchester United.

      The forward is also reportedly keen on a move to Bayern Munich where he could reunite with former Real manager Carlo Ancelotti.

      http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-transfer-news-rumours-james-10137133

      Speculation.

      But what is not speculation and is more so fact: we're no good at this transfer malarkey.

      I'd personally like to see a bit more of Grujic before we spunk up mega millions on other options like Dahoud or Meyer

      I read something on Twitter last night that we are trying to get Gerrard to come out of retirement because Hendo's injury is worse than initially thought. Surely that can't be true?

      Won't happen, the academy will sign him before we get him.

      April fool!

      Speaking of which a bit of talk of the club being put on a transfer embargo due to some dodgy dealings. Sadly for us that could become a reality.

      I guess for John Henry the prospect of a few transfer windows with him and the gang being unable to spend any money on transfers must be truly F***ing terrible for him.

      As punishments go that sounds about as awful for him as when Linda gets out her leathers for him.

      In that respect I hope fifa demand he pay at least £30m per player for the next 3 seasons at a minimum of 5 players per window. Then we'll see him squirm.
