When you analyse the last 3 years as many have, our net spend is around 180 million. A high point in net spending for Klopp.
We've lost players on frees or for a pittance in Manes case. This costs us in our ability to invest, but it seems Klopp was happy enough with that scenario.
But I find it hard to accept this idea that all good is Klopp and all bad is owners.
Working within the known constraints of the owners, financial. Its been like that since he arrived.
And the various people employed at the club, Klopps got his charm and hotline to JwH.
So for me the mismanagement has a big Klopp factor.
Only when it comes to midfield recruitment. We could argue that he wanted Touchemani, who had apparently agreed terms with us and then choose Madrid.
The owners model has been outpaced by the increase in the market valuation of players. There model only works with us consistently selling players at optimum prices and acquiring players at reasonable market rates. The market rate has shot up. We can't generate enough money from sales. Where has all the other money gone? Stadium and training ground devs have been funded by loans.
