I too think we should have signed a few more players over the last 3 transfer windows or so.

But on the net spend issue, I think it's a bit unfair. We have sold Coutinho for a lot of money, which skewes the comparison to some other clubs who have a higher net spend than us.

Since 16/17 we have the 6:th highest gross expenditure. City, Chelsea, Manure, Arsenal and Everton are above us.

Oh, and over that period we do have the 2:nd highest income from player sales, only behind Chelsea.

And over that period we have had I think the 2nd or third highest income of the EPL and we are not building a new stadium

No we were building and extension to the main stand and now we're building a training facility.

Too bad our owners want that outlay back so soon.

I was ok that we didnt go for a brand new stadium as I knew it will cripple us financially, preventing purchase of new players and argued a lot with SP on that, but I never thought that a stand will prevent us investing in players.

It's because our owners don't have the financial muscle and it's holding the club back. They got lucky with klopp but that doesn't mask the underlying limiting factors
