It isn’t the act of spending a lot of money that made most of our large transfers successful… It is the fact that we were prudent.
There were players we were willing to push the boat out on… And so far it doesn’t seem to be the case for Lavia.
Do you think the club wouldn’t spend £50m on a midfielder if we thought he was that good? We’ll see how things unfold. If we do bid 50m it will be because we think Lavia is worth it.
If not, it will be because we don’t rate him that highly.
It seems to me that most of our deals during the Klopp era have either been confirmed by the reliable sources or officially been confirmed by the club on fridays.
