Broke the world record transfer fee at the time, got us called the Mersey millionaires by the press due to us outspending everyone for who we wanted.

Mate, Moshiri is great for us, but in compararitive terms Moores was a different ballpark.

Oh I know. I'm just not expecting much anymore because of what's gone so far.

We'll probably get a couple in but they won't be the required quality.

What is the required quality

Surely we improve the overall quality in the first instance, then in the second instance we improve again....I think you can see we're i am going

What did you expect, surely not the expenditure Chelsea and City undertook

Mate,

I get what you're saying but - and as I've mentioned - that type of (vile phrase that it is) MARQUEE SIGNING is out of our hands but NOT out of our reach. And that's the annoying bit really.

100% there are offers/have been/still are offers on tables for what would be deemed a higher calibre of player.

And the funds are available for wages for these players also.

But, whether we like it or not, we're just perhaps NOT the biggest draw to that type of footballer....yet.

Genuinely feel it'll take one biggy for others to go '...Ok, there may be something going on there after all...'

But until then it's a slow-build and I trust those at the helm NOW than the ones previous. And you mention what's gone on so far....well TBH mate I'm WELL impressed with GUEYE, boss transfer that...BOLASIE could be a masterstroke and certainly adds something else. WILLIAMS has got a gob on him which justifies the fee alone for me because we haven't had a shouter for....well....ages...and the STEKKLER is as solid as yer like so far.

And these TX's have all been done rather quietly too. Which I also quite like.

It's all gonna be lovely Dude, I tells ya...

He,s speaking for himself and you do not represent the club.

For someone who supposed to work in the media you next to nothing about validating half the stuff you think you know as a fact.

I haven't put anything forward as fact in this case though?

But anyway, I'll validate my opinion then...

Stones OUT
Howard OUT
Osman OUT
Pienaar OUT
Hibbert OUT

Bolasie IN
Williams IN
Stekelenburg IN
Gueye IN

Martinez OUT
Koeman IN

A fact is that the manager we have now has been better for most of his career than the previous manager we had.

We have only lost one player that was a starter for most of last season.

Said player brought in a record fee which we have used to add players that A) were needed, B) suited to the style that Koeman seemingly wants to play (fast-paced, high-tempo etc.)

Nothing has been out in the public domain has it, really? The ones that have been (Bolasie, Gueye, Stek, Williams) have been completed. In fact the only one that was widely reported that seems to have fallen through was Witsel?
