Klopp's history is he likes to buy and develop players, to suit his style and improve them, so he doesn't usually buy many 'ready made' galactico type players.


I just hope Klopp doesn't become a Wenger when it comes to transfers, developing young players is very commendable but for a club like ours this cannot be the main thrust or we'll just end up as Arsenal after enjoying a great period at the beginning of Wenger's reign.

Klopp has however broken the record of buying the most expensive defender and GK, he will need to keep it up whenever we can afford and we can improve the team/squad, that's the only way to win things regularly and keep a significant fan base which allows for big sponsorships


Klopp does seem to spend the money when it is what he wants/requires, like with VvD & Alisson, he broke records as he knew he needed them, so he doesn't seem as stubborn as Wenger was.

I think Wenger also got caught in the financial doping stance he took with Chelsea, so spending big then would have made him look hypocritical, also the new Emirates stadium cost a huge amount, I think Wenger and Arsenal underplayed the impact publicly, saying there were funds available when maybe there wasn't.

I think we need a little of both.

We need to buy young and cheap. Develop them and then sell them on later for huge profits.

With that money we can afford to buy expensive, ready made top class players.

So in our squad there will ideally be a mix of those 2 categories of players. Just as it is now.

It is important though that the tcp's we buy fit nicely in with the rest of the group - just like Allison and VvD.

But I think there will be no problems in that department, since Klopp will see to it, with his skills in handling players and pick the right ones for the club.
