What was it? £65m on a keeper, £75m on a centre back and £100m on two backup midfielders in the last year.

Yet all I heard was Everton have spent this amount, Everton have ruined the transfer market etc.

Used to be a massive moan in the media when chelsea and City spent those amounts and we're copping it too.... They get a free pass as per
As the previous poster alluded to which i replied to, his post showed the net spends of both clubs being low.

Those 2 signings you point out were bought from the funds they got from Coutinho, if they were not then why is Klopps net spend at £50 million since he's been there when those 2 players cost £75 million and £65 million which is £140 million combined.

You do understand that Chelsea and City spent that money with hardly selling anyone, do you know that City's net spend in the last 4 seasons is, over £500 million, Pep's net spend alone in the last 4 transfer windows is almost £400 million when he bought 2 GK's 5 defenders Gundogan Mahrez Bernardo, with hardly any players of value sold.

United in the same time span is just under £500 million with Mourinho.

Abramovich first transfer window in summer 2004 when Mourinho just arrived they spent around £250 million net signing Cech, Robben,Drogba , Carvalho, Duff, SWP, Kezman, Ferriera, Makelele.

I hope you understand the terms of net spend and financial doping now mate.

When do we get a yawn response on this forum?

The RS are whiter than white. The whole club from top to bottom including supporters.
 

Its barely £100 mill, but lets not let facts get in the way.

£142m with add ons......


His net spend is £93m...... the money coming in to offset that spend of £383m was for players like coutinho, Benteke, ibe, sakho, allen, Danny ward...... players who aside from coutinho weren't even first team players but went for a total of over £220m..... at some stage these players did cost the club money..... the timing makes pleasing reading for klopp..... he effectively moved I to a club with a shed load of saleable assets from other managers spending.
.. I hadn't even included the money for skyrtel etc.... those players were sold and it didn't even dent the first team......

We have had to buy players to replace the likes of osman. Hibbert, Distin, Gareth Barry, Pienaar, ashley williams who went for a sum total of £0.00

5 previously first team players who were past it..... so obviously our net spend is going to be impacted...... lukaku and Stones the only 2 players who bought in significant sums to balance the books.


That's why the whole net spend spin doesn't wash with me.

So what you basically saying mate is the rs are sell to buy yeah - sell Coutinho = Alison and Dicky yeah?

When Dicky leaves for big money it'll be interesting to see who they get won't it.
 
Tommy Fleetwood lol
Just said he hopes Man City win it.

Also his Caddy said today that he loves Liverpool, then added, the City, not the football team haha

Tommy had a pic taken with my brother at the Open... brother had a t shirt "Tommys a toffee"...... I know that Finnis- the caddy is as big a blue as they come..... hates Liverpool... gets stuck into the tour players who are kopites..... loves it. Snodin was there with Tommy... off for a beer after.
 

No surprise as they both have a studious analytical approach to recruitment and both at present are punching above their weight and now contending a CL final at the same time.

I should also add Atletico who have the same approach and were unlucky to lose both finals against Real Madrid after conceding late equalisers in the dying minutes in both finals. Southampton are another club who also have the same analytical approach.

When you have such a recruitment based on analytics of signing players, net spends will be low as you sign players that go under the radar of big spending clubs.

Erikssen , Alli , Son, Mane, Salah, Robertson, Henderson, Coutinho, Firmino, Rose, Walker, Vertonghen ,all scream as analytically bought under valued players for a pressing style of play.

Both clubs got the right managers in perfect for that recruitment approach, signed the right players fit for their way of football, who's stats stuck out like sore thumbs for defensive metrics, running distance, pressing, sprints per game, and how good the players are in transition and both clubs are bearing fruit now.


Ffs get off your high horse...... klopp moved into a club with a garage full of dusty multi million pound footballers to sell.....all within a good age.

The Rodgers before him spent £300m on 33 players!!! He sold £190m worth including players like Andy Carroll who never showed as a negative against his spend but a positive in his sales.... being a Dalglish signing.



Liverpool have stockpiled some players and Klopp reaped the benefits from selling other managers players and inheriting some decent ones left over..... it's what happens when a club has continually spent 100's of millions chasing their first title in near 30 years
 
€142m, not even close to the full amount they'll receive.

Barcelona have put together a package worth a basic fee of £106m, plus a further £36m in variables, of which £26m should be easily met. After the £105m basic, an additional £17m would be payable for the first 100 games Coutinho plays for Barcelona, £4.4m per 25 games. A further £4.4m would be paid for Champions League qualification in the first two seasons with a £4.4m bonus for winning the competition.

Also FYI, it is £142m. And not €142m.

And eitherways, they bought him for £8m something.
