Interesting bits.
Ward negotiated Liverpool’s £44m signing of Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven in January and is continuing to work on potential deals for the summer window before he steps down at the end of May.
Liverpool’s search for a new sporting director is ongoing as they continue to consider the merits of a number of external candidates.
I couldn’t plan training sessions as we didn’t know who was here, so yes. Player side, positive. There are talks, but no decisions. We are busy as you can imagine."
Good to hear anyhow
One Jude Bellingham
Hmm, so not @Sweeting 
Let’s hope FSG aren’t really pulling out from Bellingham’s deal like a bloke trying to not get his girlfriend pregnant at the last minute…
Or we just wait and see what happens this summer. Look I’m not the biggest fan of them but going after Bellingham for crazy money is not the smart play IMHO.
Maybe not, but the smart play would have been realising that at some point over the past 3 years, rather than waiting until the arse fell out of our team
I have no idea how some thought we could both afford and attract all of the following: Bellingham + 2 more midfielders, a CB and a goalie.
Simply unrealistic at this stage where we’re at. And in most seasons for us.
Huge collective failure from FSG and Klopp.
Sometimes you need to take the good along with the bad. The owners are not football people and up until the last moments of the summer window it seemed like Klopp wanted his 1st choice or to stick with what he had. It’s not the owners job to interfere with this.
This rebuild is going to take time. Quick fixes more often then not don’t work (see Chelsea this season and ManU over the years). If we are going to trust Klopp then we have to accept there are going to be mistakes and periods where even he gets things wrong and then afford him the time to get it wrong.
I’m confident Klopp will have a budget to improve things. Will it be the highest budget… I’m doubtful, but it should be enough for us to compete smartly like we did before - if we get our transfers right.
This is the part I’m most worried about… I’m really not sure about Ward (and his replacement). Not saying Nunez and Gakpo are not going to make it but if either of them had hit the ground running we would be many places above where we are now.
This summer we need to get our transfers right. But critical to that is getting the right person in charge of those transfers and I don’t know who is the best man for the job (besides a return of Edwards).
I don’t really think it’s a matter of Budget, it’s a matter of what makes sense from an investment POV.
It’s why I’ve never doubted that if the club really want Bellingham they would stretch to a circa 120m fee. The lad is 19 years old and you are potentially looking at eight years of service before recouping a lot of that investment if needed.
The problem here is that it’s not just Cheaty now. It’s also Sandcastle and the London plastics while United may up it a notch under Gutterari slavers and Arsenal are getting their shit together.
Yes, I’ve never even hinted at being ‘FSG out’. Been a pleasure to be around for most of their time in charge. Just a collective balls up recently
I can’t believe how many people are losing their shit over something that has no basis in fact.
Despite it almost always happening this way 
? Who needs facts?
You’re right, should have rephrased. How many otherwise reasonable, intelligent people would be a better way to put it.
If I hazard a guess, our starting midfield next season will be Mount, Tielemans and Fabinho with Cameos from Thiago ,Kante and Hendo.
With that huge backing from FSG in terms of quantity, spending just 70 million odd pounds , FSG should think that LFC could stand a high chance to do the domestic treble next season! Failure to challenge that, I would expect Klopp to be sacked by FSG. 
This is the amount of faith I have in FSG now as I think FSG themselves can direct the sporting affairs with their baseball moneyball man given how there is absolutely no movements for a “soccer” sporting director.
