    Imagine if we had some of the money floating about other clubs have.

    Are team probably would be sorted for 5 years all over, with quality younger players / mid 20's

    It's not that far off already, would be a incredible squad compared to the waste of other teams..

    Just come across this.
    Looking at the earlier days and even before Liverpool used to buy 6 or 7 players.
    Even 3 or 4 can make a massive change.
    In fact too much so.

    What is great these days rather than buy 4 £10m players or whatever price.
    Liverpool clearly target positions to be improved.
    Jota £44m for example.
    Instead of Rickie Lambert.

    I can remember a few January ago when people wanted a shit CB for 2 or 3 weeks costing maybe £15m.

    Then in came VVD at £75m .

    Liverpool dont just buy to buy. Its seen as targeted players to fit liverpool needs when a need because if age, style of play.

    Total transformation strategy since summer 2014 a shambles.
    Around £112m on average tbh.

    I think when you change managers too much you get a lot of change for change's sake. Sticking with a manager and plan allows you to build over time. We really needed to sign more the past few windows though. Can't believe origi is here that long!

    Best deals financially

    Ibe, Ings, Coutino Suarez. (The latter 2 also playing side).

    Worst
    Joe Allen, Carroll, Balotelli

    Top value
    Becker VVD Mane Salah Henderson Gini Robertson.

    Really disappointing
    Keita.
