 Only reason

Naby Keita, Oxlade, Salah? There are more reasons to think they have more ambition than us.

And isn't Ox in a similar boat to Barkley? Ala young player who stagnanted under poor management. As for Keita, he's another one covered in the Coutinho cash, for Salah we can say Rudi. Liverpool are doing things exactly like we are, if not tighter, the only difference is that they have invested better (this season).

Good news but he also said “They’ve not made contact with me, so if they’ve made contact with someone else I don’t know about it.

The year before we invested better and won the league while they scrapped 4th by the skin of their teeth. If we have a better window this summer does that suddenly make us the more ambitious of the two again?

Come on Tomo. Liverpool are definitely showing more ambition than us. Barkley and Ox draw some similarities, but they’re both good transfers. Keita is a top player and as good as Rüdiger has been, Salah has been on another level or two. The point is, do you really think the board are capable of reinvesting the money as well as LFC are right now? When we’re targetting dross like Carroll, have signed average players like Zappacosta or Drinkwater or even Bakayoko who has a lot to prove? This is the problem. The club’s been signing dross for ages now. What the hell is going on?

Your arguments are always based on ifs and the past. This is why I once said that you are like TY from Arsenalfantv.

Ofcourse Salah's been better, but in the summer both were considered similar profile, which just brings me back to the point of they are investing better.

No, but the point is the moneys there but we are not investing it properly.

Thats funny because you made an argument against Tuchell based on  "the past" aswell, not double standards atall. And like i how  replied to your patronizing/condesending dig at the time, if im sounding like Ty on here, it says more about the state of this place than it does me.

He is not managing a team right now.

You are trying too hard Tomo to defend the indefensible board. The facts are we need a striker and we are after Andy Carroll. We needed a right back and we signed Zappa. We needed a left back we did not sign anyone. Also even if have made some good signings, it has been too long since we signed any top top player that other elite clubs are after too.

I have just said they aren't investing properly, so you seem to have some strange notiion of what "defending" actually means or was it just another attempt to be a patronizing git?
