Well dones should be reserved for when we sign players who complement the likes of Coutinho and help to create a great team of our own.
F*ck this blithe acceptance that we should have to fend off the interest of other clubs when we sign a player who threatens to become world class!
We didn't win five European cups only to be a feeder club to Barca and Real, yet at times it feels like our own fans are being brainwashed into accepting the inevitability of losing our best players, because who could resist the lure of blah blah blah...f*ck off and do one (how do you EVER build a successful dynasty with that Arsenal-like mentality?)
This is it isnt it? hooray, we have managed to keep a player who recently signed a new 5 year contract with us, good on FSG!
Our transfer window has been sh*t, I applaud the glass half full folks, I do, but to me, its all pathetic. I was all for letting him go for that ludicrous bid Barcelona put in for him, the only thing holding me back from wanting to sell him?
WE WOULDNT BLOODY SEE IT.
That money would go straight into their pockets, not on new players, not improving the squad, simply on paying for that next bottle of champagne at the next meeting, chowing down that caviar to make those meetings worthwhile.
However its not being a feeder club that bothers me, its the lack of ambition we have all around. Klopp has ambition, we have ambition, the board? not so much.
We tried to sign players, but failed, no backups, no second choices, we failed to get the main targets and so hey ho, lets move on.
I especially love the Man Utd arguments, well they never got their targets either! No they didnt, but they still bloody spent money on improving their squad with alternatives didnt they?
So lets celebrate that FSG have managed to keep a player under a FIVE YEAR contract, lets celebrate the fact that once injuries and fatigue hit our team we will once again be fu**ed, lets celebrate this fantastic board we have in control of our club, failed on our targets but managed to keep a player here who is under contract....
Fecking YAY.....
