I'd like Klopp to get the odd extra player here and there as needed, of course I would. But the main issue he had at Bayern was that he was unable to hold onto his star players, which is something we have changed via upping what we pay and offering bonuses related to winning competitions, not to mention the deals we offer are a good length, so with luck he'll be as appreciative of the ability to keep the tight-knit Nature of the squad as much as some others might be more focused on additions.
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but given how out of hand the money has gotten in the game, I rather wish more owners were like ours - it's the likes of City's owners, PSG's owners, Real Madrid's etc that are the "real" cancer within the game, not FSG, flawed as they most certainly are.
He was at Dortmund not Bayern
