      What fsg want is for the club to be self sufficient, the problem is that means we are doing it let’s say ultimate hard mode to compete

      For example the stadium improvements and so on prob came out of the revenues of the club or will do eventually which could have been used for players

      The owners I believe of a club can also put in 30-40m (cannot remember exactly) of personal wealth which would make a big difference if we could have that every season like other big boy clubs

      It’s going to be very difficult to complete with clubs spending 40-50-60m extra per season than us

      There is no excuse for us to be mid table in terms of spend though. Fsg won’t put funds in, it’s as simple as that, they want the business to generate everything which simply is going to be very difficult unless we work miracles which we did prior.

      It’s why they’re looking for investment, so we can improve the squad

      30m per season makes a big difference and you can bet the reason we are spending less than half of the league is we have owners who won’t invest whilst 7-8 other teams will do

      However, eventually it will catch up to them, look at Leicester and wolves for example

      I believe Arsenal and Chelsea will be struggling in a few years time but still the owners should be investing 30m per year as they have a multi billion pound investment ffs

      We have probably the best manager on the planet who has unequalled  skills and knowledge of the game, the owners no doubt were advised of this vital information before paying a considerable amount to retain  Jürgen Klopp's services.

      Unfortunately the only conclusion to be reached regarding a failure to back the manager and ultimately the club financially is FSG's sole priority is market values and financial thrift.

      Hopefully we have turned a corner after last season's disappointment
      and people have seen the light, Thuram could be the catalyst.

      probably isnt it the lowest for of wit?. Its the truth FSG are still hurting because the EPL and UEFA won't enforce their own rules but when will they wake up and admit they are never going to. Surely these smart business people must at some point realise we will never create enough money as a club to compete with City, UTD, Newcastle, Arsenal and Chelsea the one thing they have had in their armoury which has allowed us to fight above our weight is Jürgen Klopp.

      Looks like a fun prospect, who knows if he’s actually a target or not. I suppose if we buy him he is a target, if we don’t get him we’ll be told he was never one of our preferred.

      as the great man once said.
      "Directors don't come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques."
      the full quote is of course
      ā€œAt a football club, there’s a holy trinity – the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don’t come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques.ā€
      Seems this dosent apply to the usual devotees of JWH

      Came on here to see if there’s any updates on us signing Kephran Thuram and all I get is more negative opinions about JWH and FSG.
      Isn’t there a devoted thread for all that sh*t 🤷ā€ā™‚ļø🤷ā€ā™‚ļø
      Would be nice to read some info about the actual player 🤯

      Doesn’t say anything. It’s just an internal discussion. We want to see us discussing with the sellers about the purchase and with the player about personal terms.

      I’d have been really surprised if we’d have signed him as well as Lavia.

      Seeing Ā£60m valuation for him vs Ā£40m valuation for Lavia. It’s pretty obvious who is the cheaper option, and having sunk in the funds for two midfielders already.

      Long shot.

      Don’t think it had anything to do with who costs more, we have a greater need for a defensive minded mid.

      Don’t need another 8 at this point.

      Have to agree with that at this stage, as long as Mac and Dominik can be the creators ahead of him.

      Still love to see Thuram here as well
