The Sky Sports deal signed in 2018 (and coincidentally up for renewal soon) was for £595m over 5 seasons, with an additional £100m for all league clubs from the last Sky/BT Premier League deal as well. Some Championship clubs routinely have 25k+ gates for home games as well. Sure a £50k a week wage is likely the very top end of most clubs wages though.
Fans with very short memories. I can remember Hicks and Gillett and how close the club came to bankruptcy. And how poor our squad was at times too. FSG have always made us live within our means and helped with interest free loans to develop the new training centre and the stadium upgrades but fans seem to think that having some Middle East benefactor will suddenly make things better somehow. Klopp could always dip into the market, I don’t think finances are the issue. It’s getting the right player to compliment or improve the squad as it stands. Jurgen has shown time and time again if he can’t get the player he wants he won’t panic buy just for the sake of it. Yes he now sees a midfielder would be beneficial but not one who won’t be at least as good as what we have. What player will come realising that they’ll be a squad player, playing dead CL games and cups, knowing that as soon as Fab or Thiago is fit they’ll be right back on the bench?
It's the usual frothers that dont need any excuse - given ten Hag's probable 200m+ spend its got them knuckle dragging again.
Liverpool twitter is full of lunatics Rob. FSGOUT has been a thing for most of the past 4 years, despite us winning countless trophies and racking up 90+ seasons almost every year.
All it took was two wins and everything is suddenly alright again for the majority.Its because Liverpool have had such an awful couple of years.
How quickly fans forget how recently they used to be completely irrelevant.
I'm sure United fans will be the same if we get back to some semblance of what we used to be.
Really?? I don’t bother much with Twitter so wouldn’t be any the wiser had you not posted. that’s utterly mental. Every team has some proper half witted fans.
Yeah, Liverpool Twitter really does scrape the bottom of the barrel - the paddy power ad about Liverpool online fans was right on the mark.
It's mad I know. Unfortunately too many twitter fans are more concerned with signing players than winning football matches, that coupled with the fact that there's loads of completely incorrect info being spouted regarding how much Liverpool pay on transfers and wages, leads to these children going mad on twitter.
Palace are built to play to Zaha’s strengths. He failed in a big way that one season at United. Why does anyone else think he will succeed anywhere else where he’s not the main man? It’s like Grealish. Big fish, small pond at Villa, now a normal fish in the ocean at City and not exactly impressing.
Think a DM should be our priority. We have players who can cover the right in Saka's absence.
Ticket prices - yeah, it's high. It's a side effect of not having managed to move to a larger stadium, and goes to the point about FSG having us remain in our means. We can't spend what fans want us to spend, keep within our means, and not try to maximize revenue if the demand is there.
