We are the world class club that players want to come yo its just unfortunatley in the past certain people have taken to long in pushing the transfers through. Ronaldo is a prime example of that. Tommo left Melwood one day with the understanding that we'd just signed Ronaldo for £4.2 million ( I'm probably wrong with that figure) only to almost choke on his cheerios the next day to find that Manure had signed him for £12.8 million ( I'm probably wrong with that figure also)
Players want to come to us and always will. Anybody who thinks otherwise is very naive to think that the name of Liverpool FC doesnt have any pull.
For sure, those same people were slow to give macmannaman a contratc, slow to give owen a extension that resulted in us loosing owen for cheap. I rember thommo saying he lost ronaldo because at the time LFC didnt feel Ronaldo was worth it. That slow guy i suspect was Parry, and even Rafa had a bust up with Parry.
Liverpool has pull alright, but if you a player that wants to win the title, at the moment you wont choose liverpool, unless liverpool are going to blow huge money on a squad transformation that will put our squad in terms oof depth equal to the chelsea and Scum.
