Another factor (or another way of saying it) is that for heavy metal football you need young guys. You need amazing fitness (and all the help you can get!). So the physios and docs and training regimen comes into play. I remember once Neville and Keane saying that a big ‘secret’ of the 90’s SAF days was being fitter than the rest. I was struck against Real how much Pool ran out of steam. The 50/50 balls suddenly went from Red to White, even before half-time. . In the end Modrich was embarrassing a guy half his age. That’s a serious problem for Klopp. More patient styles like Real have a longer shelf life. Jurgen needs a new challenge. Liverpool need a patient rebuild in a different model. Klopp just burned them out. It’s in his face, his tired smile.

Yeah Van Dijk and Alisson weren't cheap but they both went to higher levels once brought in and you'd happily pay significantly more knowing how they'd worked out. Like I said, virtually every signing worked. Mane, Salah, Robertson, Wijnaldum even TAA wasn't a signing but you don't see him playing now like he was then. Not a single Lukaku, Pogba, Grealish, Torres (to Chelsea), Felix, Maguire, Coutinho (to Barca), Andy Carroll, Hazard (to Real), mega money signing that went wrong. Hopefully Nunez will prove to be an Andy Carroll and a return to the normal levels of 'luck' that clubs experience in the transfer market.
Naby Keita was a big signing and he's been shite even before he started getting injuries. Back in the 2017 transfer market £50M+ was huge money for a midfielder.
But yeah generally speaking their recruitment has been good but they've had their fair share of luck as well. Klopp wanted Brandt, only to end up with Salah instead on the DOF's recommendation at the last minute. Klopp wanted Werner, only to end up with Jota instead due to the club being broke and Jota being the cheaper option. They've also been seriously interested in the likes of Thomas Lemar, Nabil Fekir and Donyell Malen in recent years for big money and they've all been big flops at the clubs they actually ended up at. Maybe in some instances Liverpool weighed the risks and smartly decided against the move, but mostly I would think it's just been a case of them being priced out and counting their blessings afterwads having dodged a bullet.
The bit I loved, with his “book your tickets” shit in mind…..was the Turkish Airlines logos all over the board behind him
"Who decided we should play this late on a Saturday night? It disrupted our flow. This is so not right."
He didn’t actually say this, did he?
Fourth blank they’ve drawn in front of goal in their last six league games (scored v the submasochists Everton and v Newcastle).
They’re actually not playing that much worse than 90% of their games in the last 2-3 seasons. The amount of times they produced putrid hoofball but spawned a goal from nowhere (all the while opponents missed absolute sitters) was simply preposterous but now the goals have dried up, they’re being exposed big style.

Give him a break. His team faced the mighty Real Madrid and lost, confidence was at all time low and then they have to travel to Crystanbul, the scousers slaughter house.
Not yet, allegedly.
It sounded exactly like something he would say. Props on having him down to a T.
All washed up.
Looks like he could do with one.
Someone post that weird face he made.

Total snide cnut in his interview again. Vile specimen.
Shows how little interest I have in Liverpool now that i didn't even know they were playing tonight
That's great
What’s the twat saying now?
Some shit about Palace not having a shot on target as he learned tonight hitting the bar doesnt count or some shit. And that this type of game is typical of them. He’s a classless passive aggressive piece of shit and he needs to be called out on it more.
Redknapp convinced they get Bellingham even if they don’t get top 4. He also thinks they will get top 4 anyway. Big claims
F’ hell
They could end up having worse season than ours last season but the scouse media don't want to show that
Bellingham has definitely let it slip to someone that he’s joining Liverpool. Too much noise from ex Liverpool players for it not to be true. Spunking 150m on a teenager who’s had one good season in the German league, feel free!
I kind of agree. Palace are the type of team to get banged up by Southampton or West Ham but turn up against us, Liverpool or City. They are one of the ultimate game raisers.
If we give em a thrashing by Sunday I'd say it's worse already.
So what? It’s on him to find a way to beat it. Unless teams play into his hands his cries like a little bitch every single time.

Say nothing, say nothing, say nothing...
Hey, Klippety…
He's doing that open mouth stare into space thing more and more since around the end of last season
Is he OK? I swear he never used to do it
The thousand yard stare.
I dont know it works but he does look like that
Side effect of the teeth job?
believing their own hype.
If they spunk all their money on 1 player again it’ll be hilarious tbh. Bellingham is good but he won’t turn this around alone
If Bellingham did agree to go Liverpool last summer he must be watching them this season in horror.
Would fecking love pounding them next week leading to klopp throwing it away. After ole and Mourinho, it would be perfect revenge with 10 hags
