As for chelski, well the largest ever loss for a football club, they better hope Abramovich don't get investigated, assets frozen, yachts and penthouses seized, and Stamford Bridge gates locked by the baliffs oh well stranger things have happened

By the Summer we could have up to £15M to spend (total guess), largely
funded by Champs League run.
Not sure what we got last year by winning it. I think we only get a small cut of the TV money aswell as we "qualified" after the top four.
I'm sure someone could clarify this?

We already have now around 15 to 20M to spend. And by the summer assuming we get inot the semis we can lok to recieve another £20M. From start to finish of the Champions league you get £40m at least which is what we got last year.

stu_the_red wrote:So Luis Garcia is a better player than Kewell, Gerrard, Alonso or Joaquin (or any other class right winger)? No!
Or even Fowler or Crouch? No!
No he's not. Should we break up one of the best back fours in the league?

I assume then you've only been following the team since about 1992.
Don't get carried away, this current side is still not as good as the 1990 side, which was one of the poorer Liverpool teams to win the league.
We have the nucleus of a good side and fingers crossed, this is the second coming, the start of a new era. But really, we are MILES away from any of the great sides of the past.
what a stupid statement................this team dosn't compare with any between 74-89..........but its heading in the right direction and the champions league win was a bonus.

We're in a really strong position now, the re-signing of Robbie was imo a great move and the right move. It was an improvement on what we have already for the right price and i genuinely believe now we're one right winger away. If we sign a good player like Bullard we'll be a hell of a team, if we signed Joaquin... well, i think we'd be one of the best ever Liverpool sides.
Joaquin into the first team and drop Luis Garcia to the second string and we'll be in business.

Perhaps not, but I think the opposition that Liverpool has now in England is much stronger than the one they had back then? In local leagues through out Europe , including the Spaniard, the "other"teams have improved and are more competitive, seeming that the big ones like Liverpool or Barcelona are not that strong.

But to suggest that we can't become one of the best ever Liverpool sides at present i think is underestimating whats happening.
Gerrard and Alonso would simply walk into every Liverpool side since time began. Fowler would walk into most.
We're already a solid unit. Before we signed Fowler we lacked a goalscorer and a right winger with class ability. We've now got a goalscorer.
