Would have could have should have but didn't zero big buys I rest my case  Please do rest your case as it makes no sense, as myself and a number of others have pointed out. If the selling club doesn't want to sell a player then there isn't a lot we can do, look at Barcelona and Coutinho, we just refused to do business. So using your logic that means Barca weren't prepared to pay which they clearly were? Then why are we trying to buy then if we know they don't want to sell ? Our suits should know if the player is available or not that's there F uking job is it not ? Why did Barcelona try and buy Coutinho when they knew he wasn't available? Van Dijk wanted to join us, he wanted to play for Liverpool ahead of Chelsea and Man City who were also keen to sign him! When a player is committed to joining us we should match that commitment, unfortunately someone in the club screwed up which meant we had to withdraw our interest. I choose to believe that wasn't a deliberate act of sabotage which you seem to be inferring? Van Dijk has a long-term contract with Southampton, same as Coutinho with us, its the holding clubs right not to sell their star player, it really is that simple.

So using your logic that means Barca weren't prepared to pay which they clearly were? No Chris. It’s all was all a ruse to try and fool us silly fans. Ok but why is it that none of our bids for tcp ie vvd lemar or anyone else we have bid in the bracket gone through to a purchase and if there not for sale which our suits should have known ! why do we mess around with players at 50 mil plus who the club knows there not for sale as our suits should have advised there not for sale end result as always no player bought As for the 50 mil magic number it's not magic it's just inflated from 30 mil a few years ago and it seems that is the fee for TCP's these days ? ie vvd lemar naby blah blah blar I didn't make it up have a look out there tell me then how much top class players go for ? If that figure is wrong ? Like Chris asked, why did Barca try and buy Phil when he wasn’t for sale even at well over £100m? The simple fact is that epl teams no longer need the money so no one will be “for sale” as such. So if you want a player it’s much harder to acquire them. But you still have to try don’t you?

Did they waste the whole transfer window Feel free to answer any of my questions as oppose to ignoring them, I guess that's because you can't answer them? However I'll do you the courtesy of a response and perhaps you'll do the same. I don't disagree that our transfer window was poor, and I've posted a lot about how we missed a massive chance this Summer. However I believe the intent was there to strengthen as we made serious bids for Van Dijk, Keita and Lemar, albeit the Lemar one was late in the day. Klopp clearly prioritised those players as players that could come in and make a difference in the first team.

Did Barca buy any other players over 50 mil
I don't understand why this is relevant but yes they bought Dembele, who in my opinion was hugely over-priced after one season at Dortmund. I don't think he's worth anywhere near what they paid. Barca also signed Paulinho, the guy who completed flopped at Spurs, would you have been happy if we'd signed him? Because I wouldn't have been!

It's not upsetting but just based solely on conjecture on your part.

Based on spurious reports and your love of a conspiracy don’t you mean? It’s funny how you see something that isn’t there in most things yet don’t get on board with numerous reports from numerous media outlets.
Anyway, maybe Barca didn’t really bid for Coutinho? I think they were just trying to make it look like it eh?

Yes it all happened. But despite multiple reports from multiple media outlets, you can’t seem to bring yourself to think we tried to buy VVD, Keita (who we have signed) and Lamar. There has to be a conspiracy to fool us stupid fans. If there was just one report from an unreliable source I’d agree.
You also seem positive that we won’t sign Keita stating that there must be clauses for him to get out based on absolutely zero. He has spoken of his desire and pleasure for signing for us and playing for Klopp with no mention of any competitions we might be playing in yet this is still not enough for you. I’d suggest that if tat was the case there would have been no announcement about his signing.

The only one talking conspiracy is you wilks all I'm saying is why does this 5hit keep happening it's either totally unprofessional or deliberate
As I have said many times everyone knows you don't win deals by matching your rival bids you beat them if your serious right but we didn't ?
How come after months of talks between Barca and us our suits didn't know Sanchez was only interested in going to London and was never going to sign for us
Why when everyone at Lfc is very aware of tapping up after the youth fiasco did someone leek stuff to the press when they knew what would happen as they work in the industry imo they were very aware of the ramifications
Why when we had 75 mil in our hands from Suarez sale did we even contemplate buying mario and lambert ? As I said we're either stupid and naive as a club or it was intentional IMO If we need to offer more then why did Ox accept a reported £40k a week less from us than Arsenal or Chelsea? Sometimes players want specific things other than money. And I might be talking conspiracies but you’re the one making my them. Deliberately chasing players with no intention of signing them. Leaking to the press to get out of signing them. Conspiracy theories and all from you. Not me.

I’d suggest that if tat was the case there would have been no announcement about his signing. No I said if we don't re qual for CL I doubt he will sign and re the clause I'm assumiming naby has some common sense as if it were me I would not want to go to a non CL club when other teams in the CL would be After my signature, these are not silly comments wilks they are valid points ! You and some others just don't like hearing them as you don't subscribe to the point of view and I'm not saying I'm right just expressing what I would have put in the contract , also as lumbar said too if we don't get the CL money next season he could see fsg adding that clause too ? Sorry you don't like my opinion but it is my opinion Well the deal is done. He’s signed up for next summer and don’t you think we’d be just as silly not to protect our investment as he would to not have some mythical clause? Do you have any kind of proof that he has a clause? All I heard from his side after the announcement was how he was looking forward d to the move. No mention of any competitions we may or may not be in so why does there have to be a get out on his side?
