Our front three are all world class so hard to be better than that, he is not better but he is 4 years younger and good enough to replace them. I would say he is better now than any of our front three were when they were his age. Anyway, onwards and upwards.

Mane is the most consistent but the other 2 can disappear quite often for weeks at a time. We keep playing them no matter how out of form they are and regardless of how fit they might be because the alternatives are still worse.
Werner would have been a good fit for us and with the way klopp works new players in it would be a few months before he was a regular even from the bench. If it were up to klopp then I firmly believe he would be here.
Plenty of clubs will lose money during this current climate just like every household out there. They are losing gate receipts and match day revenues but not as much as some other clubs that have smaller grounds and bigger debts. We don't suffer like that because we pretty much get the most money from the league have a bigger stadium and no debt. We have just signed a whopper deal with Nike as well and somehow we can't sign a player like this without citing another poor excuse.
Klopp deserves an award for being the best manager in the world for what he has done with us in the last few years.
Anyway there is talk that he hasn't penned for them yet so hopefully we can still pull something off. He would make us better and that fee isnt extortionate either for a lad of his calibre.
