It would go to far to say I'd welcome a transfer ban, but if it happens, it gives a greater chance to our young players.

The collective group-think about spending vast sums just because our rivals do is flaky logic. Rather than a short-term tactical view let's have a long-term strategic approach where we innovate and not follow the herd in lemming fashion.

It's worth remembering that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different result; my view is Liverpool's future would be better served taking an iconoclastic path as that way is more likely to bring long-term success.

Naturally there's zero chance of it happening because of the external maelstrom of pressures from media and fans, but peer pressure is not the best foundation on which to make decisions.

I've seen enough of our LONG TERM tactic for development. Let me tell you this: it does not work. We aren't competitive. We are mediocre.

Why do people think our youth players are destined for greatness? The majority won't play more than a handfull of games, I can't remember the last player to come through the ranks and be a first team regular. Could argue Sterling but we bought him at 16 I believe?

Innovate, lemming, iconoclastic, maelstrom?
Not a clue mate.

Name me a team on the last 20 years bar one anomoly that has not spent money and won the league? Off course we would all love to see the next Gerrard, Fowler and McManaman coming thru the ranks and ripping it up in the Premier League but we would be fortunate to get one, never mind 3. I think you are living with your head in the clouds, possibly best to follow the rest of us lemmings mate.

Liverpool spent money when we dominated. We were one of the h8ghest spenders.

There a difference between good and bad spending though.

Its not about only wanting to soend 3 mil on a young cb. We can spend 40,50 and 60 million. Its just got to be on the right players.

We were paying 6o mil for vvd and united got a top quality cb for 30 mil.

There all out there. Good players who will really help us, a lot of money and not alot.
