In an ideal world we'd have a CB and striker/AM, but within reason and a budget, we've had a great window.
City's squad is clearly much better, but we can match them 11 vs 11 and we do have some quality depth, if not in all positions.
If 2-3 key players avoid major injuries, I expect a real title challenge this season.
Spurs are sticking to their yearly budget of nothing, Mourinho's a spent force, Chelsea aren't looking too hopeful. Mourinho came 2nd last year so hardly a spent force

The title as Klopp intimated was a trophy not the prem title! Foreign Coaches especially German consider a trophy as a title. Are you on another wind up Spangly? I see you're especially voracious on the anti Liverpool and pro Neverton today...Pickford 100m ha ha ha ha ha

Think we are in for a very interesting season ahead especially for herr Klopp. I have maintained for a long time Klopp is not fit to manage our club as I think the man has a losers mentality and will never fit in with what the club is about.
In the past I have said I would be happy with a top eight place and a League Cup or FA Cup win each season whilst leaving the big clubs to kill each other spending stupid money trying to keep up with each other.
However after the summer spending spree that goal I set out has now changed...Klopp has to deliver either the League Title or the Champions League...no beaten finalist....no second place a point behind the champions...he has to deliver....if not the man must be sacked immediately after the final game...
All you fans have defended him saying other clubs are richer, other clubs spend more Money etc...etc...well guess what, that ship has now sailed, he is in with the big boys now and should be treated accordingly....
FSG...good or bad have given Klopp exactly what he has wanted this summer so Klopp has to keep his side of the bargain and deliver what FSG want which is the title, he can't spend nearly 200m and then at the end of the season say " here you go here is a League Cup or and FA Cup " it's just not on and FSG will say the same thing...
Just for the record I am hoping Klopp is a man of his word when he said if he can't deliver a title after four seasons he will walk away, wel guess what that will be next season, having said that the man tells lies anyway as he said after United signed Pogba for 90m that when that sort of money becomes the norm he will walk away and here he is spending 75m on centre half and 70m nearly on a goalkeeper....
Interesting season ahead for herr Klopp... I think 75 and 70 are below 90...

Pickford is only the England keeper as we have poor keepers atm.
England played half decent teams at the WC, so not like he was really tested.

Tbf he is a good keeper and the one I wanted before he joined the bitters.
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Mourinho came 2nd last year so hardly a spent force Fair enough, however, he won't win the title there and he seems on a downward spiral. He generally spends money quickly and gets short term results before falling apart. I think he'll be off after this season.

No way Chelsea or anybody would pay 100m for Pickford with Oblak having a 100mEUR release clause. But I know, you only watch English games so you won't know.
