Why not mate? It's not your money, it's not mine. That's the market for top players and we need top players.
Given the net spend under Jürgen has been very low they can afford it.
We put ourselves in very tricky situations where we have to raise the outrageous wages of players just to keep them. Coutinho, Mane, Salah, Firmino, I'm sure, did not come here with the wages of superstars and can be kept here for reasonable money but when the player you're signing earns more than anyone else, I don't think it's a good thing. I don't like Liverpool playing this game of who as the most money with the likes of Chelsea, Man U or Man City.
For example, I read that Ox would get as much money as Hazard if he signs, it's ridiculous.
But if we're getting Lemar and keeping Coutinho, I'm very happy.
