Leave you anti and pro FSG feelings at the door.

But I want to know, what everyone feels is wrong with our club, in contrast to others.

In particular with completing transfers.

Every single transfer we are involved in, ends up longer than a Viking saga? For example the length of time it took to complete the Salah transfer.

This window the VVD and Keita transfers which will last all summer.

It frustrates me to hell and it must frustrate the selling club as well.

Man Utd, in a matter of days will sign Lukaku for 75million.

Everton signed Keane, no problems or sagas.

It baffles me why it happens at our club.

Even with Ian Ayre gone, we still get the same lethargy towards completing transfers.

It's a combination of the selling club hearing our name and adding an extra 20% on the price (compared to say Everton) and our owners being business men rather than football fans, so they try to drive down the price, which results in a lot of back and forth.

That's my opinion anyway

I'm neither pro nor anti FSG, I just criticise them for their actions and/or inaction, which makes me look like an anti FSG poster, because virtually everything they do stinks, hence the continual criticism.
As for the transfer saga duration, that's just another in a long line of ineptitude that's the hallmark of these owners, one hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing. The manager wants top quality signings and is prepared to compete at the going market rate, the committee obviously doesn't know what it wants, and FSG just wants cheapie young moneyball signings, but none of those three entities seem to communicate with one and other, hence LFC looking like the proverbial Ass between bales of straw - it doesn't know which way it wants to go, so it stays put! And there you have it Welshie....from the horses mouth...

I have to concur with you Herc, it is just so dysfunctional at our club, with everyone pulling in opposite directions, it really does make you want to pull your hair out.

Makes you wonder how much Keane would have cost us if we would have moved for him, Everton got him for £30 million, I reckon we would have had to pay £40 million.

I still think he would have been a good buy and we will regret not getting him for £30 or £40 million.

Why can't we just wait to see who we actually buy before we all pointlessly expend energy ranting about things that haven't even happened yet.

Because that doesn't suit the anti FSG agenda.

So strap in shaggy old boy as there's two more months of these shitty posts.
