Yeah that's bullshit. We've got a better manager and already improvements in the first team.
Liverpool have lost their best player and haven't replaced him so far.
Liverpool 2014/15 | WARNING: Contains strong amounts of Scouse nonsense

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Liverpool have lost their best player and haven't replaced him so far.
I disagree. They have sold their only world class player and replaced him with average squad players - they have weakened. We have upgraded the manager and signed couple good players, without loosing anyone that important - we have strengthened.
Also with LVG doing so well at the WC I expect most of our business to be done late. Pool don't need to wait for anything, so it looks like this are the kind of signings they are getting this summer.
Edit. @KM beat me to it.
We still need a top level midfielder or we're not getting top 4, doesn't matter how good the manager is, CM and LB last year was where we conceded most of our goals and Herrera's a huge improvement but with Carrick out injured you reckon a Herrera/Cleverley midfield will take us to the top 4 next year?
We don't know they're average squad players, Lallana could easily be class for them and Markovic is meant to be the best young talent in Europe. And we still have barely improved CM, as we bring a good CM in our best one gets injured so now we need 2 more as Carrick's getting old anyway so he'll need a good replacement and we'll need a world class CM to take us to the next level.
There's still loads of time for market to go. I'm positive we'll sign a central midfielder in the window. As of now, our window hasn't been worse or disappointing at all. Liverpool's window has been worse because they've lost a world class player.
How on earth can people say we've had a disappointing window when we've had a managerial upgrade and have signed two first team players.
I'm not trying to argue if we have a better team or not. My point is that they have weakened and we have strengthened, so you can't say our summer has been worse.
Exactly!
That's true, we have a lot of time but I'm just going off what's happening at the moment. I think it's almost a certainty that we'll sign another CM now as Ducker's saying we want to offload Anderson.
I didn't say it was disappointing I just said it was worse than Liverpool's, although I thought they'd signed Lovren and Moreno but apparently they haven't yet so they haven't actually improved their weakest point.
A creative player I reckon. Sanchez/Isco/Shaqiri/di Maria or that sort of player. Strike 1 on sanchez.
Can has a calf strain.
pretty sure you're getting Reus
Reus 
Doubt Reus will leave till next Summer and even then he'll be one of the Spanish Giants' new toy.
Can't see that either. Real and Barca both have world class players in his position already.
You've had to watch us lift 13 Premier League titles over the years. Watching you participate in the CL for one season will be a piece of piss.
When has that every stopped them?
Ouch.
Normally true, but in this case Ronaldo plays in his position at Madrid and Neymar at Barca. They obviously won't be replacing Reus with either of them.When has that every stopped them?
If he leaves Dortmund I do think he'll come to the PL. Just not Liverpool.
True, however this is a liverpool thread if I'm not mistaken.
I can see him staying at Dortmund when he realises that no one better are in for him.
No player at that level will drop down to play for Liverpool. A player like Sharqiri could be realistic. But apparently he is off to Roma.
No you aren't mistaken, actually, but if hadn't been thinking of a snarky little clever remark you'd see that I was simply comparing the windows us and Liverpool were having, someone said their's has been poor and I was pointing out that ours wasn't the best as we are 3 players short, was that so difficult to comprehend?
Not looking that great against mighty Preston.
Yep, it's the Suarez effect.
I'm lucky enough to have it live over here!
It's too harsh (not to say positively foolish) to label the likes of Markovic and Can "average squad players". They're very young and has plenty of potential to become much more than "average squad players".
As I've said before, if Brenton's system works, these players could be very astute signings.

You'd have said the same of Ozil and Arsenal last year.
Not the same. Arsenal have been consistently in CL for the last ten years.
Played like it was a pre-season friendly. Despicable.
And we're not a Big Club™ etc and the merry troll round can keep going from there.
I really wasn't concentrating. Hard to tell who was even playing as there were no names on the sheerts.
Ibe, Rossiter, Coutinho and Suso were all really good.
Of course you're not. One major trophy in a 24 years clearly shows your not. Add in a lack of CL football for half of the time since it formation in 1991-92 and you can see why Liverpool aren't regarded as major players anymore.
Spoken like a true wishful manc.
Please god not another 'big club' argument. As tedious as "RVN vs Henry", or any "is so-and-so world class?" threads.
Facts as your once great manager said.
United fans stating facts about Liverpool is hardly trolling.
Ofcourse you're a big club, but I don't think unless you pay top wages or play in CL consistently, top players will join Liverpool.
So i know there's still time for more possible signing to come in(surely need a few defenders) but what do Pool fan's think their starting XI will look like next season?
It's a good transfer window for them, all in all, so far. They've added a lot of depth. However, there's still a lot of work to be done there. I don't think their stating XI is any better than last season and their defense is far from impressive.
However, the biggest question for them is which Gerrard will turn up once the season starts. The 2013/14 (2nd) best midfielder in the PL or the embarrassment from the WC. If he can't replicate his form from last season, I won't be bothered one bit even if they sign all the strikers and wingers in Europe.

Something like:
Mignolet; Johnson, New Signing (Lovren?), Sakho, New Signing (Moreno?); Gerrard, Henderson, Lallana; Sterling, Sturridge, New Signing
