Are Liverpool suppose to compete though?

Klopp doing a fine job.

Our club is being held hostage by Yanks. West Brom ffs have invested 100mil more than we have in the last 2 1/2 years.

That's net spend BS though. If you have better players you'll receive more in and looking WBA their departures are rather minimal both in player stature and fees gained. One of the worst measurements is net spend.

Yours looks poor because you've fleeced Barca for a massively inflated fee.

Since 15/16 Summer 130m in and 41m out for WBA
Since 15/16 Summer 373m in and 341m out for LFC
(all these are give or take btw as per transfermarkt [quick maths])

Their net spend is only higher due to recouping significantly less in sale fees.

Where is the money though? We are supposed to be the 8th richest club in the world but are making profits on transfers.

If we've fleeced Barca then we should be spending that money as well as FSG spending from their own pocket.

Sell to buy strategy + make profit on transfers = can't compete with rivals.

We're about 10th-11th richest now and still sell to buy (or buy very little), appears as though Chelsea are now sell to buy somewhat.
Arsenal sell a lot to buy.

If you're wanting to financially compete with Moneychester clubs then you'll be disappointed. None of us can.
To compete with them you need to be smarter. Smarter tactically, smarter with recruiting and scouting and smarter with buying players.

Hence spending heaps of €[URL='https://www.transfermarkt.com/jumplist/transfers/spieler/341317/transfer_id/1893259']€[URL='https://www.transfermarkt.com/jumplist/transfers/spieler/341317/transfer_id/1893259']€ [/URL]p[/URL]robably isn't that relevant. You could spend another 100m this week and still not be able to compete with them.
City have Mangala, Kompany, Stones and Otamendi already and will spunk a massive fee for Laporte so it seems. Madness.

I'm not asking for the club to go broke spending 150mil net every season. But -50mil over 5 windows is not good enough.

Surely we can afford to spend about 60-80mil net per season. That's like a 130mil turnaround. 2 or 3 good players.

To me our aim is to lock in top 4 but it looks as if we've sabotaged that this window. If we brought in Keita early and bought a good GK that'd be enough for me.

Whilst true, we are just way better than we have been in the past. We are building, maybe trophies will arrive soon. Who knows? But what I do know is that we are in a much better position to win trophies with Klopp at the helm than we have been in the past. Since Rafa really.
