Why after everytime we fail or things go to sh*t, they come out with these stories of new sponsorship deals? Or some new partnership?
They have to be seen to make liverpool competitive and still a big team. Unfortunately we have fallen to absolute sh*t under FSG. They wouldnt brake the bank for sanchez we ended up with balotelli. Theres always a less cheaper option whos probably Home grown and young. Thats the way FSG think.
Put henderson, lallana and allen up against players from another league in similar position to us in the league and they are mediocre. The thing of buying English players needs to be looked at. Personally, if we were required to have a minimum of 3/4 i would only have 3/4. The lack of technical ability and footballing brain shows in Europe. Im not saying all english players are crap. But theres only a few who are worth considering and they are all playing for other teams.
These rumors and stories are fabricated 99% of the time i completely agree with u. I dont actually believe we have signed a player until they are in the kit at melwood kicking a ball around for the media. Unfortunately, the player or players kicking the ball around arent good enough for liverpool and nowhere near top 4 level. FSG learnt from their mistakes of buying predominately British players a few years ago. I'm not sure if losing out on Sanchez was FSG's fault. Rodgers said Sanchez wanted to move to London so if that was true, and it was also reported in the media at the time, you can't blame FSG. Apparently we offered Sanchez the same as Arsenal. Like you say, he wanted London and Arsenal and never once was it reported he wanted to come to us. We should've moved on from him instead of keep chasing him and that's all we did wrong in that deal for me.

FSG bought Firminho and Benteke last season, most of us thought Firminho transfer would fall through if I remember, so they will pay when required, I have no doubt they will back Klopp. The Euro's will delay allot of transfer as international managers will not want the distraction, like the Vardy transfer, problem is if a player has a good Euro's their price will massively inflate.
We have signed what appears to be a decent keeper and centreback already, so 2 of our problem positions have been/on the way to being solved, it looks like a LB is on the cards, so that's the another major position to be fixed.

Considering Klopp wants pre-season to start in the first week of July I'm concerned that things are not going as expected behind the scenes.
Surely he knew who he wanted very early and if it is a German bias then we shouldn't be having this much trouble wrapping things up quickly. I mean who has he pencilled in half the Bayern team? I doubt it so we should have been an attractive proposition to teams his targets play for now.
It could still end up being a good window but it is worrying.

It could still end up being a good window but it is worrying. Pre-season usually begins at clubs at the start of July. But our best players are playing tournament football this summer so they won't come back until a later date so even if we signed someone playing in Euro 2016 now they wouldn't join the team in training until later on so there isn't much to worry about right now I don't think. And just think other top clubs are in the the same position.

To see who can be out injured the most in a season.
