Actually I think it's more like £36 million as he's now our most expensive purchase!
If this £36m can get us top four or win the league, then that's money well spent. Nobody would complain by then. We're cautious right now because of players like Benteke, Carroll etc. and that's perfectly understandable. But this is a Klopp signing so let's give him a chance. You think the TC would propose a £36m player? It's a Klopp signing. Deffo.
Klopp must have wanted him badly. The premium you place on a purchase is a reflection of your desire for it. Klopp would never take players who think that they've "arrived" and have lost desire in improving.
Hopefully he has a good season and by then "get in" would be the most frequent post. None of us can prove if he'll be a success or a failure at this juncture. Like it or not he's our player. So let's get behind his back for now. Fingers crossed, hopefully we'll be right in the mix come the end of the season.
