James Pearce: “If Van Dijk and Salah sign extensions, less business will need to be conducted this summer, but those contracts would still put a dent in the funds available for transfers.
As the rumour mill starts to crank up again, there needs to be a dose of reality. Liverpool recently posted a £57m pre-tax loss for last season and had the second-biggest wage bill in the Premier League at £386m per year."
[The Athletic]
The excuses coming out already. So, basically either renew the contracts or get new players and if we get new players, expect us to not have the clout to actually sign them.
So, it appears another dead summer is on the horizon. If it happens, FSG needs to go.

Just found it amusing that on an article that had no other fans or anything to do with another team, Term was still biting about the luck thing, despite luck obviously being a contributing factor in some capacity.

It was copied and pasted from the Athletic article, how thick are you?

I even said right at the start that’s what it was. I was just providing a fuller picture of what Pearce was saying than the op was willing to.
T-BAD has had a shocker here

Fair play, I didn't go and search out the article and I didn't read your comment in a way that you were directly quoting the article

Yeah I mentioned Asensio weeks ago.
He’s no world beater but he can play 8 or 9 and has bags of experience. He’s also an athlete. Could have helped manage Szobs minutes no end.
But noooooooo.
Team with 22 players in the squad runs out of legs for the second season running shocker
Who saw that coming. Crazy.

Elliot can be used to rest Szobo.

Exactly. If we had 24 players instead of 22 we wouldn't have run out of legs and we'd have won the quadruple.

If Kash had read the full article instead of going full conspiracy crackpot he’d probably have agreed with it. In it Pearce states there is much work to do with the squad.
Goalkeeper situation is good.
A new right back needed if Trent leaves and a worry over the reduction of creativity.
Another centre back needed perhaps even if VVD stays.
Another left back needed.
Replacement for Endo who he stated back home in Japan they want him to leave.
A midfielder if Elliott isn’t going to be given more game time.
A striker, with Nunez potentially recouping some of the money back.
A replacement for Salah if he leaves.
A replacement for Chiesa if he isn’t going to be given more game time.

I mean standard beIlend reply as usual but yes, having a full squad would have helped to manage the minutes. Obviously.
But then I have to remember who wrote that. A person who described the first leg vs PSG as a defensive master class

Terrible under FSG, I mean:
1x CL
1x Premier League
Numerous finals
A few domestic cups
World class players
Oh for the Roy H days eh!!!

Pretty much agree. I’d like to see what Danns can do if he’s with us next season. And Bajcetic as well. Liked him before he was loaned out and he’s getting some praise in Spain for his performances

Yeah I liked Bajcetic also. Would also like to see Dowk given a chance but looks like he’s gonna be sold.
