Never known a fan base in World football that obsesses around the dreaded phrase "Net Spend" like Liverpool fans. Our Summer revolves around it, the success of our dealings are seemingly gauged on it. It is the f**king bain of LFC forums & social media.
If we get rid of players who don't want to be here, & bring in players who improve the squad, who honestly gives a flying f**k if we spend £1 million or £101 million net? I couldn't give a sh*te! On the face of it, we've got rid of that little shitbag, brought in some genuine class, some genuine experience and some genuine depth. Looking forward to the season.
I totally get your point, I've read so much about it.
However, doesn't that at least mean the fans are kind of sensible and not impatient brats who want everything right now? Although, that attitude is allowed within all the being realistic, measured and knowing there is a way to build up the finances that may be more gradual than most of us want to see.
Every fan of this club knows or wants to see us win things (not the Europa though with some fans?
) heck, even fans of other clubs from around Europe/the World wants to see us fighting. To make things more spicy, I have family abroad who follow Liverpool and sometimes I feel bad because we haven't performed as I hoped we could.
It'd be nice to feel proud of a season like 2 seasons ago, just so we don't come across so meek... like a shadow of our former selves. Things go in cycles (not spokes) so who bloody knows.
Only thing is, it needs full backing and not giving up on targets. Also a manager who is capable of winning things.
Maybe Brendo will learn he is a winner this season.
