Reminder that over the last full 10 years... we are NINTH in transfer net spend: Man Utd €1204.19 mil Chelsea €1047.05 mil Arsenal €851.76 mil Man City €837.32 mil Tottenham €657.38 mil (despite a stadium move...) Newcastle €571.51 mil West Ham €549.02 mil Aston Villa €443.64 mil Liverpool €418.65 mil We're currently 5th in wage bill with a huge gap to 4th: Man City £3.88 mil per week Man Utd £3.57 mil per week Arsenal £3.31 mil per week Chelsea £3.25 mil per week Liverpool £2.48 mil per week We got 21.5 mil worth of annual wages off the books in Thiago/Matip/Adrian/Carvalho/Van den berg whilst only adding Chiesa... The year before... Fab/Hendo/Milner/Keita/Ox/Firmino wages all off the books (£45.4 mil in annual wages) replacing with Macca/Dom/Endo/Grav (£24.4 mil) We could afford to bid 110 million for Caicedo. It wasn't finalised, then we only spent 50 million on Gravenberch + Endo. Forgetting everything else... That leftover 60 mil by itself... is enough to give Salah, VVD & Trent a £128.2k per week salary increase EACH, for an ENTIRE 3 year contract each... Where's the money, John...? Why doesn't someone actually explain to us fans the specifics... if we're GENUINELY in a tough financial situation. Without a detailed explanation, you cannot expect us to look at the situation as anything else but us being cheap. We're not asking the club to spend what Utd have spent... but we're being absolutely DWARFED by Arsenal, and are behind spurs despite them building a new stadium. Just make that make sense please
I'm getting a little sick of spending £1,000 s of my hard earned money on tickets, travel, hotels,merchandise while continuing to watch these owners run this club on a mid table level budget and 3 of our most important players at a stage where they can leave for free its unacceptable when do they start realising this is liverpool football club
Is it really that hard to give all 3 players contracts ? We came to the point where we don't want new signings , we just want to keep our current players...
I always backed and respected FSG as our owners since they bailed us out from going into administration and you can't deny what they've done for the club, but this is getting absolutely ridiculous now, not backing Jurgen when may be 1 or 2 additions to the squad during his tenure could've won us more titles and even now with slot, practically signing no new players in the summer and the contract situation. It's appalling and not acceptable at all. If they can't invest or don't want to invest, just sell the club.
FSG cant seem to reward players for consistently playing there best. reason why we have done well are due to the likes of salah van dyke an trent. FSG seem to only care about saving money most likely to place in there pockets.
If Salah's name was Messi they would beg him to stay and give him everything. His name is Mohammed Salah so they don't appreciate him as much as he should.
We are top of the league top of the champions league you'd think I'd be happy but with this never ending bullshit with two legends still not been signed up I aint enjoying the season at all Hughes Edwards and fsg out
We must not allow them to get away with any longer my friend 👍 we must rise up and show up 👆 and let our voices be heard loud and clear then they will have no opportunity than to stop been stingy.
I seen this kind of comment last summer if we don't make our feelings known now and if we only panic in the last few days we will only get loans like Arthur melo
FSG need to sort Virgil and Mo out within a week. Get the league won and see what happens in the champions league. Trent demanding to be skipper is just wrong
Enough is enough Craig. Time again for the "Where's the money John?!" thumbnails again! Btw, I read an article from June 2024 where John W Henry gave a rate interview and was asked about the Boston Redsox, wherein he moaned about lack of money and fans need to not expect a trophy every season. He got so much criticism from fans and American sports journalists that Linda stated she was suffering from anxiety because of all of the criticism. FSG OUT!!!!
You do realise that the £18m you keep banging on about is under a single year of Salah’s current contract, right? So has little to no bearing on the contract negotiations?
what are you on about...? That 18 mil was money being paid to matip + thiago whilst we were ALREADY PAYING SALAH TOO 😂 So that is 18 mil that can be put towards the INCREASED wages for Salah... not his overall base wages + the increase too lol. And it's not even just 18... it's 21.5 (plus adrian, carvalho and van den berg) and that was just for last summer, when the summer before that we got rid of fab, bobby, hendo, keita, milner, ox who were ALL on wages of well over 100k a week. And we also bid 110 mil for caicedo... which we then only ended up spending 50 mil on gravenberch + endo (where's that other 60 mil mate...?) The money is ABSOLUTELY there... we are just cheap
@@Thereallenin76 do ME a favour... and try and actually use your words to explain how it's "clownery"... I just explained to you that the "18 mil saved" was money we stopped paying thiago + matip, whilst we had ALREADY been paying salah his recent wages when thiago and matip were still on the books... so you saying "it's less than a year of salah's current contract" is utterly irrelevant. do you get that now...?
Arne Slot said 6 months he was happy with his squad and repeated this recently and yet so called Liverpool supporters hang on the every word of a foul mouthed ignoramus who probably wouldn’t be able to find Liverpool on a map.
What Im surprised is that we would rather have cheap owners to jerk us off like this, then rich owners like Elon or those Arab guys. Now listen, I am not fan of spending money like other clubs are doing. But ffs can we at least keep our best players? How long will the monopoly of Real Madrid be present?! And I see people bitchin about Elon wanting to buy us! I don’t care who the owner is as long as he wants the best results for THE CLUB!
Craig were top of the league in both Premier League & Europe , we're never in any danger of breaching FFP rules , and we're being run properly , FSG saved us from Hicks & Gillette Craig , they've built the AXA which moving forward will serve us well , we are seeing the results already pal , look at the youth coming through , they've built the Main Stand , New Annie Rd stand , broken world records for a GK & CB at that time , rebuilt our midfield which is now the envy of the League , there's no FFP issues as we're being run properly "the manager is brilliant , the players are brilliant you said , it's FSG that brought the players & manager ! The contracts are going to be signed , they're all smiles and producing the best football losing only 1 game all season ! It's my opinion mate ❤
Well said, this is what Craig struggles to get his head around, paying fortunes in for players and wages doesn’t necessarily mean success, look at Man Utd
@@David-f5d mate , were never mentioned in the same sentence as FFP , only that we're being run within the guidelines, FSG have given us a new Main stand , new Annie Rd stand and state of the art training complex that is delivering , we're top of Premier League and looking strong favourites to win the league , were top of Champions League , semi final of the League Cup , the difference with us and other clubs is that we do not panic buy imo , yes the 3 contracts should've maybe been sewn up by now , but it tells me that they are going to sign extensions, all 3 of them are smiling and are major cogs in our Juggernaut, I believe we have great owners , just because we're not buying 2 or 3 players every transfer window doesn't make them bad owners , they are shrewd and with the transfer team we have , we're in good hands they've more than steadied the ship , delivering a title , a champions league trophy , and every other club trophy available. Look at what Chelsea have spent !!! And we're above them !!! FSG for me know what they are doing and yes they are going to have ppl have a go at them , they've even invited fans to join in on the boardroom discussions to give us all a better understanding of what their intentions are....we've achieved greatness and breached nothing 👏 imo
You probably said the same last summer, "Oh we're top of the league, Klopp doesnt need to be backed, what could go wrong?", and then we bottled the league because you would rather win nothing just so FSG can save money because that's all you care about. You keep harping on about transfers we made 7 years ago and for them "saving us", why do you think they were the only buyers? And they didn't buy anyone, they didn't exactly use their own money, Edwards had to sell to buy. Tell me why the Red Sox fans who knew them longer than you, turned against them? So going by Chelsea & Utd, we should never spend again because if other teams do it wrong, Liverpool will do it wrong too.
We are Top of the League, in a fantastic place as a club over the past decade, with a great managers in Klopp and Slot !! STOP MOANING. you are becoming delusional. I use to watch you on a regular basis, but just can't listen to someone who projects negativity constantly!!!!You speak about toxicity, look at the content you put out on a regular basis. When you have respectable guests on like Darragh MacAnthony you don't say a peep. Stop with the self righteous garbage please ! would love to hear your thoughts on this Craig?
You seem to forget what the owners have done to help turn our club around. I for one believe that having smart businessman as owners of the club is better than just spending willy nilly. Do you want a club, that in 10 years ends up with overpaid dross, like Man Utd? I hope all three players stay, but if the conditions are not correct for the club, then whatever happens, we will move forward as we always have. And on a final note about your final comment. They've bled the team dry of talent??? Are you smoking crack? Do you remember the days of Ricky Lambert, you absolute wally? Shall we take a look at the squad real quick? Salah, Van Dyke, brought in AND KEPT by them for years. Trent 8 years of service. Allison, Konate, Robertson, Gravenberch, Sobozlai, Elliot, Jones, MacAllister, Jota, Diaz, Gakpo, Nunez, Bradley, Kelleher, Gomez. None of these have been/still are top players in your mind? Stop talking absolute rot!
Why do you shills always get the idea that we want 300 million spent every window? Or that we should spend like Utd? Where do you get this from? Funny how you brought up Ricky Lambert, who were the owners back then? Oh that's right, FSG.

@@Ice-tc5vn You realise we bought 4 new Midfielders last summer right??? I've been a Liverpool fan for the best part of 40 years, and I'm a football fan in general. The amount of fickle and forgetful fans out there astounds me. As Liverpool fans we have been blessed with a rich history or glory. It can't always be the case, and believe me, the years where all players jumped ship, leaving Gerrard as our only real World class player hurt. Now we have stars all over the field, we have exciting football, week in week out, and we compete every year for the biggest trophies. Take a step back and realise that if nothing else FSG have brought us to this point, and maybe show a little faith.
Pathetic video/clip getting boring now talk about players contracts and transfer from your bedroom Top of the league had one of the best half seasons in history and moaning like a arsenal/Tottenham fan
What about next season? As always it looks like we will have no consistency because a good season is followed by a bad one because key players aren't replaced.
