no one can possibly ever criticise the lovely Linda.

Now I don't want any bickering, but I feel that these are the areas we need to improve before we can win the title. I'm not interested in the phoney top 4 rubbish either, if we finish 2nd or 10th we still failed to win the title regardless.
Here is what we need to improve before we win a title.
1) A top class keeper. Mignolet or Karius fail to inspire the team.
2) Stop playing square pegs in round holes. Milner is not a defender, neither is Lucas.
3) Investment, our team is not good enough to win the title, we are short in all areas of the pitch.
4) New owners, FSG don't care about the club, they are just in it for the money. We had a negative net spend in the summer, nothing this window, they are clearly more serious about the money than trophies. Time to get rid.
5) Leadership. Nothing on the pitch, where is our. Gerrard, Keane, Adams, Souness, even Joey Barton would show more leadership than our bunch of prima donna's.
6) Anfield crowd, even Klopp mentioned it today, quieter than a library, hardly intimidating to the opposition.
7) Too many average players. How many would get into past great Liverpool teams.
8) Whining fan base that wets the bed everytime we lose or draw. That has no effect on us winning the league or not

I confess... I may have defended FSG earlier in this thread.
I don't know the technical details of the deal they struck, but I do remember the mess we found ourselves in with H&G followed by the embarassing court case, Broughton looking for buyers etc. Compared to that we've had a period of stability, investment in a new stand and a dream manager.
It may not be perfect and there may be issues but it could have been a lot worse.

How do you get rid of FSG, they are the owners of the club, would you mind elaborate?

We can't get rid of FSG.
They will carry on milking the club for as long as possible.
I believe they will sell up, but only when the constant bad decisions they make lead the club to fall further away from the top clubs in the Prem.
The latest bad decision will be not reinforcing the squad in the January window when our rivals are on the back foot.
Believe me, City, Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, Everton with new owners, will not all be in this state of flux in future seasons.
We will become a mid table team and eventually FSG will sell in 2020 onwards, but by then the damage will be done.

Theres no transfer money id say. We built a new stand for primarily corporate members and that cost a lot of money. They dont want to invest money because they dont give a f about the club thats just the reality. In order for us to invest that would require them having to invest their own money which they wont want to do because we're currently in the top 4. They only look at the now rather than the possibility of us dropping out of the top 4 which is still a possibility.
If klopp honestly believes we can carry on till the end of the season not signing anyone and after leaving us short last summer it would worry me going into next season. I wouldnt trust a word that comes from FSG's mouth. They show up for new promo deals and thats about it. Remember we missed out on Alli over a few quid as well.

They can say whatever they want its not always true. They cheaped out on building the rest of the stadium because we as fans were not prepared to be ripped off on ticket prices so the majority on new stands can accommodate more corporate seats which i agree with. 1 League cup trophy and 1 4th place finish is all we have under them in what 5/6 years now?
