Wildly inferior... So dramatic

Just the truth. I'm over FSG. They just never have any ****ing money. They have done amazing but it's come to a point now that we cant compete with the Man City's and Newcastle's of the world.

You could say that the price paid for Haaland versus Nunez made Haaland wildly inferior but that isn't true. Completely the opposite. Also the money you've spent on others like Jota and Konate says otherwise for having to spend lots of money.

The whole woe is me about FSG is completely bullshit when you've spent as much money as anyone recently. But hey, facts are never something that suit liverpool fans.

As you can imagine, I’m taking this news really well.

Haaland's representation were paid a 35m agent fee and his wages are 500k / week vs 140 / week for Nunez. So nowhere near the same but facts were never your strong point.

Konate was 35m. That's peanuts these days - if you are going to use that as "spending money" you have failed hilariously. It's so funny because what you quoted proves just how tight FSG are.

And you still can't find another prem club that has signed just 1 midfielder since 2018. To suggest that Liverpool have spent as much as their direct rivals is laughable.

Oh and you didn't pay an agents fee at all for any of your players?

Let's not get onto spending again because it has been proven by everyone but Liverpool fans that you've outspent a lot of teams. You've just bought poorly lately. Donkeys instead of Race Horses. It is hardly every other clubs fault that you bought 5 forwards instead of 1 midfielder since 2020 (You might actually want to look and see that you bought Elliot in 2019 and then Thiago in 2020) . That's club mismanagement. No difference to Everton buying 5 Number 10's and no strikers under Koeman.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

The whole Liverpool not trying to buy Bellingham smells of snubbles imo. He's off to City or Madrid imo if his agent can convince BVB to sell.

Lol, you are so deluded. After Firmino leaves that will be 4 forwards that have left since 2022 but don't let the facts get in the way of your delusions. 4 forwards out. 4 in. Seems you have difficulty understanding the logic behind that.

Harvey Elliot was 16 in 2019, a youf prospect.

You including him as a signing shows just how bad your argument is. Might as well include any U23 signing based on your logic.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

You can criticise the Glazers for a load of things but spending money on transfers really shouldn't be one of them.

You spent over £200m on new signings this season, and well over a billion over the last decade. Glazers giving you money to buy new players isn't really the problem, it's more that with a few exceptions you've spent that money on s**t.

Yeah we are happy that Joel Glazer has been using club generated income and increasing club debt to finance shit signings and contract renewals in his role as DOF.

As previously discussed 2 of those 4 forwards barely played minutes. Both were even loaned out during their time at Liverpool. Facts you always seem to neglect. I'm surprised you're not including outgoing players from the youth team as part of your losses as well. 2 forwards replaced by 5 so far.

Harvey Elliott had made his PL debut prior to you signing him. Hardly a "youf" prospect given what you spent on him at 16.

Yes, FSG signing a 16 year old Elliott for 3m is proof that Liverpool spend as much as anyone else.

This transfer actually proves the opposite of what you are trying to argue.

Keita, Markovic, Fabinho, Thiago, Grujic, Arthur, Minamino.

You must be paying the canteen stuff a fortune, your wage bill last year was 4th highest in England and you seem to think all your players play for lunch money and an Argos voucher.

 

[Zidane98]

Keita, Markovic, Fabinho, Thiago, Grujic, Arthur, Minamino.

I'm not sure what this list is suppose to be. If it's midfielders signed since 2018 only Thiago fits in that category. Arthur was a loan and played 13 mins this season. Markovic dates back to 2014 and Grujic 2016 lol.

No, it doesn't. Not sure how you come to that conclusion but congrats on the mental gymnastics required.

 

[moomba]

Yes, once again. You can criticise the Glazers for a lot of things.

But this crying poor that seems to be getting more and more common amongst supporters of a few teams in particular doesn't really stand the test of reason.

Midfielders from 2018.

A loan is still a signing.

OK fine, but you've conveniently left out Minamino, Keita and Fabinho.

That well and truly debunks your "one midfielder since 2018" theory either way.

 

[Zidane98]

Facts aren't allowed.

The fact that Markovic was signed in 2014 obviously escapes your stunning logic.

Yet another fail.

No it doesn't. Minamino is a forward. Keita was signed in 2017 and Fabinho summer 2018.

There has only been one midfield signing since 2018. Thiago. 2 if you include FSG flexing their financial muscle to spend a whopping 3m on a 16 year old Elliott.

 

[moomba]

£51m transfer fee
£35m agent fee
£26m a year wages for 5 years

£216m. £43.2m a year, and that's with the Zidane98 imaginary wage figure.

What a ****ing bargain, and we'll make it all back if/when we sell to Madrid.

 

[Bradesmaen]

I already mentioned who was signed previously. Keep up gymnast. This is devolving into the same argument where Liverpool fans refuse to accept facts that they spend loads of money on players and the rest of us point this out to you. Why do people these days have to be so arrogant and unwilling to accept anything different to their own point of view?

You literally quoted a post that cited Markovic as an example. You are cooked beyond belief.

You can't accept the fact that Liverpool won trophies spending less money than your club in recent times.

 

[moomba]

If we're only counting transfers since 2018, our performances are a minor miracle against these moneybags clubs.

I quoted a post but never said I agree with it all, simply told him that facts don't belong in an argument with you. Again I provided you with a list of names but you've conveniently ignored this because it didn't match yours and you know you missed a player. So you attack the man instead.

This is the crux of the matter. You're so stubborn and ignorant that you think it's a vendetta against your club. Take pot shots at my club all you want, do I give a ****? No. I'm not that obsessive like yourself. They've made some incredibly poor decisions and it has made us go backwards, likewise Liverpool have done the same when buying 0 midfielders and a bunch of overpriced donkeys up front.

LOL that's a long way of you saying I was wrong.
