Ok I’ll bite. Not a lot to spend? Are you daft?
Our commercial, tv and match day revenue combined will likely eclipse the 500 mil mark for the second year in a row this year, while our wages(players and staff) is still well below 300 mil a year, and the only other significant operating costs we have are probably the 25 mil a year we are paying to our owners interest free for the main stand expansion. Add to this the 52 mil we made from player sales, and only spending 1.2 mil on Sepp van der Berg, it’s clear there is still a significant amount if Klopp chooses to spend it.
The good thing for you lot though is that we will likely not spend anything in January bar any injury.
Klopp doesn’t buy for the sake of it, he waits for the right player, unlike some clubs we know...
With the nicest will in the world mate, if you're a kopite you're not really in any position to be calling anyone else daft are you? You are by far and away the most inept, ridiculed and foolhardy fanbase in the country (hence why the whole country can't stand you).
I'll deal with some of the substance. You will have to let me know who the 50 million pounds worth of sales are. I have Mignolet at 6 and Kent at 6.5. I know Kopite Maths might give you 6 + 6.5 = 50. So try to spin to me where the 50 million comes from (without adding in imaginary loan payments or the 20 million for Ings that would have been allocated last summer).
I have listened to Liverpool supporters all summer blabbering on about all these signings you are going to make. I have been quite consistent and said that will not happen. And surprise surprise, look who's been proven right again? This is like the last idiot on here who made out Naby Keita would be the bets player in the Premier League. I stated he was about the level of Gana Gueye. He told my I would be proven wrong by September of last year.In fairness I was proven wrong but not in the way he had envisioned, Keita has proven to be a very poor imitation of Gana Gueye. At £55 million arguably the biggest single waste of money I've ever seen in football history him. For your sake you ought to be thankful United are throwing money down the drain to avoid that title.
The broad point in all of this, is dealing with the continual sleuth of rubbish, is rather tiresome. I do my bit to try and educate you reds as best as I can, and the few brighter ones amongst you do show some signs of progress, but for the most part it floats over you.
I'll give it a go though. Your wage bill is already substantially higher than Manchester City (you know the Manchester City you say are cheating to buy the league by having a smaller wage bill than yourselves). That is before substantial bonus payments are made on the bank of winning a trophy. FSG are known to have heavily incentivised contracts and there will be both wage increases but also substantial 1 off payments to go alongside this. The pot is now empty. Record incomes mean you can just about break even. However a wage bill of over £300 (and perhaps considerably above if you factor in new contracts) are hard to sustain (it's questionable whether even City could sustain such a wage bill).
I wouldn't worry too much though. You will likely be able to sell Salah for £150 million soon, maybe Mane for £80, Van Dijk for £150 and that will allow you to replenish your squad again, which FSG have proven very adept at.
Either that, or you keep deluding yourselves you'll be paying £300 million+ for Mbappe in January. All the best soft lad.
