KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum FSG and lack of ambition

I don't think its lack of ambition I think they just don't have a clue what they are doing. Awful signings for big transfer fee's, willing to pay large transfer fee's but not wages to attract quality players. Money has been spent but spent badly. I have no doubt we will amonst the biggest spenders in the transfer window again this summer but I doubt we will be seeing a world class players coming.

The older heads on here remenber when 2nd place was a disaster for Liverpool FC. Now 4th place is the height of our ambition.
If we dare to question this lack of ambition we are told to be realistic and that money talks now in football.

I am grateful that I got to enjoy our club in the days when winning trophies was what we were all about.

The younger fans may laugh at us sentimental old fools but they will never have our memories sadly.

I said the exact thing that our problems run deeper than the manager the other day on here and I was just told I had not clue what I was talking about.

Now shanks says it and it must be true.

Are you for real,people have been saying that on here for years.

I said that the other day and everybody said it was all down to Rodgers. Just saying.

It's not all down to Rodgers, but he is a huge part of the problem.

FSG in my book they have been owners for five years and club going backwards and with the relaxaion of FFP we are going even further behind

With FFP being relaxed, that should help us don't forget they said they can compete financially with anyone

Well I don't think any of us will be holding our breath

No one knows yet what the changes to FFP will be. All I have heard is that the fines are likely to be reduced (which would of course render the whole process totally pointless). They might go down the route of point deductions instead, which would probably hurt clubs a lot more than being hit with a fine.

City knew they were going to be in breach of FFP but went ahead with their spending so that they could 'unfairly' win the EPL whilst other clubs respected the rules. They knew that a £50m fine was worth taking if it meant being league champions, qualifying for the group stages of the CL and benefitting from the additional tv revenue and sponsorship that they would like gain. Would they have happily cheated & broke the rules if it meant having points deducted and missing out on being champions, or qualifying for the top4? I doubt it very much.....
