    And the other half suspended.
    If you're not sure what to do with the ball, just put it in the net, and we'll talk about the other options later... Bob Paisley.

    I asked you about us, our club, how much ?

    Seems you don't have a figure, or players, or positions to venture.
    Maybe I'll find someone who can answer these questions.
    Or explain how much more city needed to invest to prevent their dip.
    Geezer - not sure if you have noticed BUT just look at what City have won in the last 5 years compared to us. They didn’t perform at their best last season - were beaten by an unbelievable points total from us - but still came second - still won silverware and have been serial winners before and likely will this season too.

    Stop fixation with City. They are out and away

    Man City x 2 League titles
    Chelsea x 2 league titles

    Chelsea x 1 Europa League.
    Man United x 1 Europa League

    Arsenal x 2 FA Cups
    Man United x 1 FA Cups
    Man City x 1 FA Cups
    Chelsea x 1 FA Cups


    Man City x 4 League Cups
    Man United x 1 League Cups

    In fact Skye - everything won except our European cup and League title - in the last 5 years has been by clubs that have outspent us.
    1 PL - 1 CL - 1 SC - 1 WCC for us

    How do you rank the trophy returns with us in it ?

    I'd have city ahead of us as they will probably add a another league title this year and the domestic cups count for something.

    Would you rate Chelsea's return above ours ? I wouldn't

    Just the 2 oil rich clubs to consider, the rest have won nothing major.

    1 city
    2 lfc
    3 cfc

    Please mate - stop with the CWC - it is an exhibition tournament. You can’t even get the name right it is that big

    You are becoming desperate

    One of the benefits of the pandemic (if there is any) is the facts Suarez gets to wear a mask and saves on eating people.

You say that VVD was already lined up irrespective of what happened with Coutinho, but by the same token it could already have been known that Coutinho was going to be sold, and that the money received for him was going to be put towards VVD and Alisson. For all you know they could have earmarked other players to be sold to finance those signings if Barcelona had not paid as much as they did.

    If they had sold Coutinho and not used most, if not all of that money to bring in one or two quality/expensive players, they know there would have been serious unrest. They may be businessmen, and tight as ****, but they aren't stupid. They hired Klopp because of his record of being successful on the cheap. People like yourself can keep denying it, but there is more evidence to suggest that is indeed the case than there is to say that's not the main reason why they hired him.
    This is real life not fantasy football. They didn't sign Van Dijk because they sold Coutinho. Van Dijk was already coming on thing the rapping up issue. Fsg made Van Dijk a player who played for Southampton and Celtic the most expensive defender in world football because Klopp wanted him. Dag spent 66m on a keeper with 0 league titles and only a fluke champi0ns league semi final by Roma and they went and got the man. Ederson by the way was the most expensive at about 30m at the time. If that is not backing then....

    Jota cost 42 million and has only scored a handful of goals in the Premier League. 41 million. Bruno cost 45m just to give perspective. Werner with a proven record also cost about the same amount. That is backing.
