One player I am sure would have improved our squad is Payet and he is going for 25m I think. Marseille who are nowhere near us in terms of financial capacity are going for him.
So a guy that is desperate to return to France for family reasons and has downed tools in an attempt to force this move through? Under no circumstances would I want a player at LFC like that! What Chris said. And just because he's not from Marseille doesn't mean he's not going for family reasons. Why would we want payet, he just downed tools to,force a move. A one season wonder who is nowhere near as good as he thinks he is. Only his set pieces would improve us significantly, how many goals have we score from freekicks lately and have you seen our corner takers? The point is not about Payet but players available who could improve our squad. If you think Payet or other available players wouldn't improve our squad, then you should be happy with the situation. Great, let's wait and see, maybe you are right.

There are always reasons why a player moves, family, wages, bigger club, more opportunities, manager, club wanting to cash in etc. The point was whether there is better quality than our squad available on the market and the answer is definitely yes. Schneiderlin IMO is a better central midfielder than Can and I have mentioned only 2 players I have seen playing in the EPL alone, there are tens of other players in the world that would improve our squad, but I don't watch that much to know who.
We have scouts, a director of football and a manager whose jobs are to find those players instead of finding excuses. Anyway, they have opted not to reinforce for whatever reasons and no way I will condone this unless as some said, FSG is not providing the funds, but I have seen no proof of that. It is simple to me, they are not doing their job correctly. I cannot be happy with that even if others find it ok, I don't.
So basically what you're saying is that you don't trust Klopp that he knows what he's doing? Maybe we should reunite Rodgers and the committee to see if they can do any better?

If we want a player just for set pieces why not go for that Swansea feller Siggurson or something, he's as good if not better at free kicks and corners than Payet or maybe that Mahrez feller from Leicester.

Only an idiot would want a player just for set pieces, however, we do not have any good set piece taker. I don't remember when we last scored from a set piece and most of our corners are just wasteful. We are though experts in conceding from them

Never said that but I think he is making a big mistake by not improving the tean IF he has the funds. I might be mistaken and time will tell very soon. If I am right and he does so again, then yes, I would think he is not the right manager for us, but still early, we have only been knocked out of 2 cups. As I said before, our squad is so thin that I am sure there is quality out there which will improve us.

And what if he's right and the right player isn't out there? After all, as I've said many times, he's a lot closer to the market than any of us and where as it might be hard for us to imagine, it could be very true. Also, just ask yourself why nothing big has gone down until now and don't come back with the usual excuse that the others are stronger.
