I want to play now!

So what is going on with Fenway ?

They've been punting Liverpool on the open market for some time, bit over priced as i understand.

Do you think Klopps on his way out ?

Salah is only a matter of time, come on lets be honest for Fenway it is all about the money.

Try again Ifarka. Nonsense as per all of your articles 😂. At least do a bit of research before you write.

Klopp has another season after this and I'm very confident he'll last longer than Loletino who, despite spending over £200m still hasn't addressed the gaps in your squad.

If Saudi are willing to offer £150m now then no reason that they won't offer a similar amount in Jan.

Not for sale, ok that doesnt mean the club have not been punted.

The club is not for sale because the Fenway could'nt get the price.

The story did'nt just arise from nowhere

Well nonsense articles, you are entitled to your opinion, but im not writing for the benefit of you and your board

Yes agreed about the point that if the Saudis are happy to offer now , they will offer in Jan, but i will suggest the figure will not be what it is today.

Klopp, well its only a matter of time imo

Addressing gaps, the only gap im frustrated about is the out and out striker position, but Lukaku has been part of that issue, and the injury to Nkunku is unfortunate.

But tbh , i and most Cfc supporters are very happy with this squad.

Take out the FFP compliance pressure, i think that the club have done very well, not 10/10 , but i would say 8/10.

You cant have everything!

Im happy the the new ownership are backing the club and players

whats games is he going to play in?

Most games. Have you seen our attack? Broja, Nkunku and Mudryk injured. We’re left with Sterling, Jackson, Madueke and now Palmer.

An addiction, no definitely not , your reading red tops mate

The squad is a full 25 man with cover in every position.

Only top six sides will have this type of structure

It is short an out and out goal scorer.

light in experience at the top level.

But it is only a 25 man squad, we have three players to move on, sale or loan, C HoD, Cuc, and Chalobah.

Better than Jackson ???

Err not sure about that, Jackson is a nice footballer

I hear you but at some point shouldn't the club play its own teenagers instead of spending huge sums on other team's teenagers

at some point, ?

I think that is really about how you/ we believe how the club should operate:

I don't think the ownership look at this way


I think it must be understood in the context of how the owners intend to run the club & what the reality of the clubs situation is ?

Cfc traditionally in recent history post 2004, have adopted a strategy to trade players to bring in pure profit. FFP compliance and it helps the club to compete with the clubs who have bigger stadiums, not necessarily to play in the first team.

I think we can agree this has been successful

The new ownership are investment bankers, i think it would be reasonable to suggest that they intend to continue with this strategy.

Their transfer dealings illustrate this.

Imo, i think that they see the academy players as revenue stream first and potential first team players second, as a bonus.

The club seem to have shifted it approach under the new ownership and are now acquiring young highly rated footballers who represent significant potential , not highly priced finished article footballers, as under Roman was the norm.

It is highly risky strategy, as it adds huge pressure, particularly as the club have undertook a total rebuild.

Unfortunately since they took over they have backed themselves into between a rock & a hard place situation.By loosing the C/L revenue and status.

This has FFP implications, over the entirety of the amortization period, next 5 years as the club seem to have currently maxed the amortization figure allowable / permitted within the clubs revenue ability.

Do you think that if the club had focused of academy players over the last 20 years, the club would have enjoyed the success it has?

Personally i doubt that very much.

I believe for this new ownership , it is all about the money, they are investment bankers after all.

But for it to work, they need success.

They are putting their money where their mouths, as supporters it is the best we can hope for imo.

All up for sale:

Gallagher -50m.

Chalobah-50m

Maatsen- 30m

He will leave on a free after seven years of not playing a single game, just as Chelsea go under.
