Would you take back Steve Walsh?

[Nymzee]

Same for Robertson. Maybe we would have got Robertson that played for Hull. Klopp for me is the reason he looks so good now, he gets the absolute max out of everyone.

He was good at Hull? Hence Liverpool bought him. The reason he’s better now is because, strangely, players can improve through age and experience. Shock horror.

 

[evertonarntwe]

tbh i believe him

i remember saying we should have signed robertson when he was at hull and salah when he was smashing it in the europa league and champions league for basel

i also thought adama traore would come good and he scored 2 against man city

and that's literally the only 2 goals he's scored in 18 months isn't it?

 

[MikeH72]

And where are we now in the league?

Your statement only works when Brands' signings perform.

100% of our best players are Brands signings.

He was decent at Hull, but lets not pretend he ever looked like he could be THIS good. It even took over half a season for him to get a game at Anfield.

You will find its a very common trend with every single player under klopp.

Salah would be on five a season here because we créate so Little.

Or because we’d ask him to play as a winger in a 4-5-1 and track back whereas they essentially play him up front.

Not really.

Reminds me of how Wenger went on about almost signing Ronaldo and Messi for Arsenal.

Football is a huge game and every big club knew all about Haaland for years. How can Walsh claim he wasn’t backed? I think he gets let off for the “Koeman” signings. He wanted Rooney and the others.

Even if he didn’t want those players, it stinks of lack of control and gravitas to be in the DOF role - something Brands seems to have in spades.

not backed.... ha ha ha ha f-ing ha! he spent hundreds of millions on dross that hung around our squad like relegation-whifing millstones. He is a clueless moron. Should we ever need a picture for what DOES NOT represent Nil Satis Nisi Optimum - its him!

Stll be waiting for a lb if he was here

Results don't lie tho. We've got worse under Brands. Time will tell.

Erm, litterally every single first team player they have fits into what I said

Klopp is - unfortunately - obviously a very good manager. You're going slightly overboard there though. There are plenty of players he's had at Liverpool who haven't got any better, without even looking further back in his career. He buys players who fit his system and he's very good at making that system work, which can in turn make some of the components look better than they actually are. It's basically what Moyes used to do, only supersized.

David Walsh?

Well yes, and you have proved my point tbh.

How confident would we be of koeman doing with Robertson what klopp has?? Or sam, or silva, or anyone!!??!!

makes this whole, look who we could have had story a pointless waste of time, imo of-course.

Yeah absolutely, i'm not disagreeing, just pointing out that Klopp is only a very good manager, he can't turn water into wine.
