KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Should we buy a training ground in London?

Yes, and why stop there?

Even more people live in the US, so why not even move to a new HQ in N.Y.?

To be able to pull that one off we need new owners who aren't afraid to sign top class players for astronomical fees and put them on silly wages to keep them happy and in place.

If you look at City they had to pay twice as much money to compensate there players to come and play for them because they were no longer a top side, big Yaya came in on excess of 150k a week and David Silva bit more, them Guero on over 200k a week so if Liverpool fans think FSG are gonna do that think again.

I think playing home games in the City you started in is coming to the end, for a start the really big Clubs have owners who have no affinity with the City or people who live there so why would then want to play games there if they could make more money playing somewhere else and at the same time enhance the franchise and create a bigger profit.

If John Henry decided to do that who else would he be really upset besides about 16 thousand or so Liverpool fans who are local to Merseyside and would be put out or inconvinienced about having to travel further away....

Yeah Sixties, I'm totally with you there.

And that's why we need new owners who don't get bothered by digging really deep into their own pockets to get those tcp's signed!

why not .

So how many players have we been in the market for where London has been the key determiner? Sanchez and I have my doubts that was the crux of it. There are a handful of WC prima donnas we aren't even in the market for, who would consider this the prime motivator, not the length and breadth of pros!!!

Ever more reason for us to have a manager like Klopp then. I haven't given up hope he will build us a team of hungry players who are capable, and not base their career move solely on location.

He hasn't had one window yet and I am reading this rubbish.

Some good points, I think players will want to sign for Klopp and one or two players could sign because there grandfathers have told them we were once a great club and a big club from years ago. I think the London thing will play a major contributing factor when the situation arises when we are in for a player with one of our rivals like West Ham, Spurs or Everton we are all in similar situation team wise, all with fantastic past history some a bit more than others and all in that second batch of teams behind the massive clubs in the top four Arsenal, United, Chelsea and City, that's where the London factor and new stadium side of things will be the deal breakers and why London clubs will have the edge over clubs like us and Everton...

EXACTLY!

London might be better for Sturridge or future players like him there is more to do on their time off

exactly
