KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum are we all concerned by Chelsea?

Spunkly you are deliberately trying to bait people and being controversial for the sake of it. That has quickly become predicatable and boring.

No one can be that angry that long. You're a drama queen who craves attention and you are to be pitied in my opinion.

No I am not concerned about Chelsea as they have different aims and expectations from Liverpool Football Club, Chelsea expect to win the Champions League each season Liverpool just hope to appear in it, Chelsea expect to win the Premier League each season while Liverpool hope just to finish fourth in it, hope this clears it up a bit of why am not really concerned on what Chelsea do...

Well said spangles7 !!!!!!!!

Do you think Klopp wants to win the PL or finish top 4? I am sure he wants to win it and will do whatever he can to do that.

We will have a budget for next season, we will have so much if we don't qualify for the CL and that amount + allot more if we qualify for the CL, clubs have to plan around budgets else they go bust, I'm sure FSG are hoping for CL qualification as a realistic/achievable target, that means we get allot more income and that can be spent on the club, but I am sure they are dreaming of us winning the PL, but at the start of the season that was a hope rather than a realistic target, as business people they need to be realistic and not end up like a Leeds.

you make fair points, I agree with you that Klopp would like to win the League just like Eddie Howe and Tony Pulis do however I think it's a bit more complicated with FSG. What I mean is ofcorse FSG would take winning the league but I don't think they would like it if it means pouring about 100 million of there own money to do it, FSG would rather put about 30 or 40 million in and maybe qualify for the champions League than risk more for exactly the same outcombe.
Look at it this way last season City spent about 150 million on players just a guess and finishing 4th earned them 96 million while Liverpool finished 8th earned 90 million so you see the money you have to invest in winning the League is no where near worth the effort you get money wise in a return for your investment it's like risking a million pound on a horse to win 150 pound so that's why only rich clubs like Chelsea, United and City actually try to win the League they do it for glamour purposes...

Well said again spangles7...

Educate some of these plums on here ...

I don't think anyone needs to be educated to be honest, it's very easy to clearly see no person or business is going to invest in excess of 150 - 200 million pund in something that only returns 100 million and by the way there is no guarantee of winning a league which involves the richest Club in the World Man City, top 2 or 3 richest clubs in the world in Chelsea not to mention the biggest Clubin the world which is Manchester United. You wouldn't take that risk yourself would you I know I wouldn't. It's better to invest about 30 million each season and try to win the 100 million for finishing fourth each season plus the chance of more money by appearing in the champions League, less money, less of a risk yet still pretty big profit in return for your risk...
