Yep. And I don't give a fukk who signs or identifies the players we buy as long as they're good enough. Agreed let's remember under the great days if shankly and Paisley and into the 1980's the great players we signed were the result not of the managers but the team work and quality of the backroom staff Geoff twentyman not a name we often speak of but him and the likes of Ronnie Moran and others all played their part. Here's to the modern equivalents whom I hope Klopp identifies
IF YOU WANT TO BE HEARD SPEAK SOFTLY - BOB PAISLEY

Think the backroom staff needs to be changed then. If Klopp has final say, what good is it when he has to choose from the likes of Aspas and co.

not convinced. am pretty sure brendan didnt want mario. I cannot imagine that Ayre is lying in public, if Rodgers goes public and says otherwise, then maybe I will have a doubt, otherwise, noway. Coming to Mario, I rather think that Rodgers had spend the budget he had on Lallana, Markovic, Lovren etc for 100m, so not many players were available for 16m.

What Ayre is saying sounds right. But some of these players were forced on Brendan. I'm pretty sure there were a lot of trade offs from Brendan and other committee members which meant no one got all the players they actually wanted. If Brendan agrees to a player he doesn't want then the committee may be more willing to sanction players chosen by him. In other words, if he says yes to Balo, Moreno, Markovic then the committee would give their backing for Brendan to sign Lovren, Lallana, Lambert.

Why would Brendan start a public argument with his former employer when that is totally uncharacteristic of him? Even at his spell at Reading when things turned sour he left the club with great humility. He could have blamed people but instead he thanked the club, he said he learnt lessons from the experience and even said how exceptionally well his replacement had done. You can laugh at it but a lot of other manager wouldn't have done the same thing. And whether you thinks he a bad manager or not he should be respected for the way he conducts himself.

If Red is right then Bren had no issues in saying 'I do'
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

It certainly wouldn't be the first time someone has lied in public. As for using up the budget, why not take Remy at half the price of Mario?
