      The fact that we have heard from the lads before the owners speaks volumes.  The players know what the fans deserve . . . obviously the owners don't.  As I've said before, the owners just want to line their pockets . . . this should not be tolerated.  The whole point of Fagan, Shankly, Paisley etc building our massive history was not for a pair of billionaire ignorants to come along and throw it all down the drain to put us in a shambles of a competition.  This goes for all the other English sides that have had a huge, trophy-winning history.  The fact that FSG wanted to do this and risk our history makes me feel sick and full of hatred towards them. 

      The sooner they're out of our club the better.

      Many on here have been stating this for years. It’s really quite obvious why we don’t compete on a financial level note this has come out. Various excuses have been made by owners and certain fans alike regarding our lack of spending when deemed necessary, but the bottom line is lining pockets.

      I read one good tweet -- Jose Mourinho will be the only manager ever fired from a team in the ESL.  Special indeed 🤣

      Loving the collective statement from the lads but also found this statement from De Bruyne which I found very classy.

      Well, now is the time for all those hypocrites to enhance their social standing by scripted messages about "how they love the game and the competition". Yeah, of course Kevin, you love it, but I guess if City would ask for a 50% pay cut you would not love it anymore, would u?

      Does spending 200 million in the transfer market yearly and then suiting up against the minnows of the PL whose wages are probably 10-15% of the Manchester teams' wages constitute "competing" ?

      I'm not a fan of all these players coming out with comments when it's over. We needed their strongest objection while it was a live prospect. Seems a bit cowardly to speak out now.

      Yeah it's easy to say after. Fortunately Gary and Jamie got their hand in first so credit to both of them.

      You follow the wrong sport if you expect owners not to be in it to increase their wealth. Maybe try cricket? WNBA?

      When FSG sell Liverpool the next big guy will come in with the exact same view: an investment.

      Virtue signaling at its best. And Pep's quotes crack me up, talking about competing when he has spent hundreds of millions in the defensive line alone til he eventually got it right. Yea, competition.

      Wow masters bark and the monkeys get a typing!!

      Similar type posts it's almost like you're F***ing amateurs at this. We seen it all before with shithouses claiming to be Liverpool fans to spin sh*t for H & G. You're F***ing fooling no one dickheads.

      It's also called being a former footballer and probably at heart a supporter!!

      That is exactly what is wrong with football, wouldn't you agree??  Where there's money, there is power and that is wrong.  Why must everything become a business??  We shouldn't tolerate arrogant b*stards treating our club like a guinea pig.  The fans keep the heart of this club beating.

      Wow.

      Giving what the players did an hour ago, this could get very messy.

      Genuinely expected us to withdraw this evening and whilst we will end up doing so I'm sure the fact we are still digging in now is just shocking.

      Pep is part of the problem with today's football, enabled by UEFA and FIFA turning a blind eye to his spending, of course.
