      CB is a serious concern of mine also...really the only one I had going into this window once Salah was done.

      As others have said, it makes no sense as to why we did not even try to bring in a younger CB to groom while we waited to try again on VVD.

      Only the manger and a select few will ever know the answer though.

      Thought I'd add our net spends since FSG took over:-

      2011/12  +£39m
      2012/13  +£54m
      2013/14  +£23m
      2014/15  +£47m
      2015/16  +£32m
      2016/17  -£5m
      2017/18  +£42m (so far)

      Liverpool average: £33m per season

      Compared to our rivals' average over the same period:

      Man City: £93m per season
      Man Utd: £88m per season
      Chelsea: £31m per season
      Arsenal: £27m per season

      I bet Michael Edwards' wife tells him to go the shop to buy some milk and proceeds to scans the shelves, buys a tin of beans, cereal, bread, some fruit and veg, pays at the till and leaves the shop...forgetting the milk.

      Well to be fair, we haven't got the money like Utd and City so it seems appropriate?!

      In all seriousness it is, people need to realise that we simply do not have the financial muscle of the Manchester clubs. I'm still pissed off we didn't get a CB though, even one on loan would do.

      You're making out we had a tenner. Don't care what they've got. We've got sufficient funds.

      Have you looked at the clubs books, how do you know what the budget was beyond reading tweets from ITK's?

      Where is all that TV and CL money going if we supposedly lack the funds?

      You have mid-table clubs and Premier League minnows smashing their transfer records and signing players for sums that were previously unthinkable for them, but a club of our stature can't even afford a top class CB?

      Bollocks. Bullshit. Brickleberry.

      I find the "bring a young CB to groom" idea a peculiar one. With plenty of talent in the youth department, isn't that where we groom already? Any CB that was going to be brought in needed to be a starter, and immediately better than anything we have. That cuts down the options right there. I'm frustrated this Van Dijk deal didn't come off, but I'm not sure just grabbing whatever slapper was keen at 4am in the club is the right move either.

      Just not to aware of talent at that position in the youth set-up...we have not seen any taken on tour nor touted (not counting Gomez btw)...just think a fella like Tah at Leverkusen would have fit the bill as a decent Sub and someone you could build with along with VVD.

      A good OP, some interesting figures, but I don't see the point, with all due respect.
      And that's only because I have a bit of tunnel vision when it comes to these things.

      My only concern is "have we improved the team/squad".

      To me, the answer is yes.

      And putting it another way, a net gain, perhaps in more than monetary terms with Sakho gone.

      I have a hard time believing he's that bad, but apparently Klopp thinks he is, and it's his team, so there you go.

      I enjoy Klopps role; he has the power, and apparently, he's not afraid to use it.

      To some it means everything Swab....I just posted it as a way to look at what the clubs I consider our biggest rivals in the top spots accomplished.

      Think City massively overpaid on FB's, while I think Spurs once again managed to keep it's spine intact and got a helluva deal on Walker.

      Yeah, I know, and if I fail to understand it as a way of expressing quality in a team, that's my issue, no one elses.

      I think about signings, but not in terms of cost, rather in terms of contribution, and I think we're doing well, and catching up.

      One of the reasons I think Spurs have done so well as of late is they're ability to keep the team together and only lose 1-2 players a year and integrate the new players into a system that is already functioning well as a squad.

      You can lose 1-2 first team players a year and be fine if the rest of the squad is a cohesive unit...its the massive turnover that burns you.

      I agree though we are catching up.

      Net spend is bogus when taken in to consideration in isolation.

      Anyhow...

      Sold no one of significance and added to our squad - a positive.

      Still needed a CB - a negative.

      Still positive we'll be in the top 3 at the very least. Our attack will cover for our defensive deficiencies but for next season that has to be addressed 100%.

      Now let's talk F***ing footy and not numbers for the love of Christ :D

      Let's look at one window in isolation; not too shabby; eh? 😂😂😂

      "Ah but... ah but... I'm only giving you the info. Not trying to twist anything"

      Spending £500m on [value for money] mediocrity or £500m on top talent: there's the difference. "Next year"; right? 🙄
