    It's the risk category that Klopp spoke about. That's where a manager gets a breather. You won't get that with buy-to-let owners who only care about the bottom line.
    Not sure a £75m player can ever be 'low risk'.

    Check out these big riskers.. Endo.. Minimino.. Chiesa... Davies..Melo...Kabak.. Thats' just (Chiesa apart) what Klopp needed to go fight City.
    Endo has been excellent and I wont hear anything different. Minamino scored goals in our Cup Double run.

    Davies, Melo and Kabak were absolute disasters.

    We would be better off keeping and developing Danns than spending money on this Greek lad who has only played in the second division in Germany. If he was that good, he would be playing for his parent club in the Bundesliga

    Depends entirely on the market. It was £64 with add ons BTW.

    You can believe what you like - I suggest that’s why you don’t work in the game. Endo did as well as he could when asked. A cheap as chips solution to an expensive problem STILL not addressed.

    Agreed. There's something about Danns. He reminds me a bit of Harry Kane, he's not particulary quick, strong or skillful but he knows where the goal is.

    The other thing we have to consider, which I mentioned ealier is the home grown quota. We only have space for new 2 foreign players.

    Danns has natural ability. His finishing is of the highest quality. Composed player. It’s true he doesn’t have blistering pace but I think he is strong for a lad his age.

    Do you work in the game?

    If Endo keeps having good games at what point does the opinion change?

    Whats the add ons for nunez if we win league and champions league? Could be a factor in any potential sale. Personally would love him to stay, playing a very different role nos to what he was signed for but works his knackers off for the team everytime

    That would be telling. Let’s just say I might have done. And I certainly know a player when I see one. Endo is a dependable worker but despite some great performances last term he was also - sadly - a factor in us falling off the pace last season.

    Not sure he fits any natural position. Too small to be a CB but that’s what he is - essentially. Great fella - not really the level for Liverpool FC.

    I really like him, but he’s here ONLY because we have buy-to-let owners.
