      Only one of quality out of your list is Mac Aliister and you are not getting a WC winner for less than £70M

      I would go all out for the likes of Barella and Caicedo but would mean we don’t get Bellingham as I doubt we spend that much.

      This is purely on a selfish level and I make no apology for it , but I’ve been supporting this club since circa 72 and my old man a long before that , I’ve seen the barren times , my old man dosent have a great deal of time left to watch us play , and my wish is for his last memory’s of us playing are of joyful times , on that basis I want our owners to deliver the goods and a team that can fight for it all , if that’s £150 or more so be it , selfish maybe but watching the reds play has been one of the constants I’ve had with my dad , if I had my way I’d have the owners break the bank and have a last hurrah for my dad to watch , maybe that’s why I get so pissed off when I’m told we only have 30 bob to spend .

      You don’t have to make apologies


      I have never been focused on how much is spent more about the player that arrives


      It never matters if we spent £1 or £150mil - as long as the players arriving are what the club wants


      I remember when we bought the likes of Mane , Gini and even Jota and people dismissed the signings because they were only £30mil etc but they were exactly what the manager wanted and that’s imo key for me

      Let's not forget how unimpressed many were when we first got Gini, who then turned to the reason we struggle in the middle is because we never replaced him.

      I haven’t mentioned the owners - you did , I’m talking about signings and yet you bring the owners into it

      I wonder why...maybe because our spending is directly tied to the vision of our ownership. Don't be so obtuse.

      We can get 3 players of quality for under £150mol

      Where do you keep getting this number? Do you have a direct line to our owners and what they are willing to let Jürgen spend?

      Apart from Gravenberch seen the others at least half a dozen times and the likes of Neves, Tielemans
      dozens of times.

      So you think the following players are not quality players



      Rabiot - still in his prime , World Cup winner , played at some of the biggest clubs in Europe


      Neves - for years has been a quality player in the Prem and also a main stay in the Portugal team

      Palhinha - been one of the best midfielders in the league this year


      Gallacher - last season was outstanding for a palace side that did well , no surprise they are struggling


      Tielemans - another still in his prime , a regular international

      Would also add Fofana as well from Monaco

      All would be under £50mil and some for a free

      There is prob a lot more that the scouts have looked at


      Europe has lot

      Rabiot and Tielemans are be the type of signings that would allow the club to throw everything at Bellingham.
      That's surely something the club is looking at.
      I think Rabiot would suit what the club needs better and allow space for the likes of Elliott and Carvalho to develop.
      After that, if the money is there for Bellingham great, if not Caicedo and/or Mac Allister should be the players Liverpool are looking to sign.

      Within that are the options to add 2 to 3 midfielders at the club.
      For me that would be an ideal Summer.

      Keita, Ox, Milner - Out.
      Bellingham, Rabiot
      Caicedo/Mac Allister, Rabiot
      The club should be all over Brighton for Caicedo and Mac Allister.

      Haven’t seen enough of Caicedo tbh he was impressive in the game against us

      Been very impressed with Palhinha just a bit concerned that he is 27

      Caicedo is only 21. Mac Allister is 24.
      Rabiot on a free is 27.
      That's short and long term security for the midfield.

      It all looks good to me


      Only issue would be I think we need to have one HG player in there because of losing Ox

      HG players could a problem, but we have quite a few good lads coming through like Bajetic & Morton to bolster the squad, although they are u21s so possibly don't count as HG yet if memory serves.

      That’s actually not a bad call racer. Wont cost 150 million either.

      Morton will count but not sure Bajcetic will

      Bradley may also be added


      It’s why players like Gomez and Jones won’t be going anywhere

      And also why Milner May get an extra year

      If the following players leave:
      Adrian, Matip, Keita, Melo, Ox, Milner, Firmino.

      I don't see where the HG issue lies.
      Elliott, Carvalho and Bajcetic will get an increasing number of minutes.

      We are on the edge in regards HG , if we loose both Ox and Milner they both need to be filled


      We have spaces for the Non HG but only if we fill the HG ones

      I read Klopp wants Milner to sign for another year, is that the usual social media bullshit or true?
