Hi Eds
Lots of people on here angry about lack of new signings despite financial position being made clear by ed2. Put simply - Klopp can buy if money is made available through sales. My question is why do LFC overprice our players leading to no sale and eventual loans. Surely 15m x 4players with some of the money made available for signings is better than trying to get 20m and ending up with nil and no signings. Just seems frustrating to me.

{Ed002's Note - It does indeed make it difficult.}

Is there a single team who prices players fairly?

It's a simple rule of sales you always try to get as much as you can.

Every club overprices I dunno why everyone highlights Liverpool doing it as though it's unique to this club.

well said Nevada I don't know who we have over priced £20m for harry Wilson not long turned 23 got 7 league goals from 31 games from out wide in a struggling team and 15 goals in the championship the season before. If we was buying him the price would be more than £20m yet you would get people like 2AJs saying just pay what they want. I don't know how many people on here are just pretending to be Liverpool fans to put the club down in here. Same as when we bid £10m for the Norwich fullback people saying just pay the £20m now it sounds like his going to Newcastle for about £13m a lot closer to the £10m we bid than the £20m the fans wanted us to bid.

Spot on, Nevada. This is a common ploy in business, as a whole. No wheel is being invented here.

Spot on Grino, Norwich Sly Sports correspondent called the £10M something like the biggest insult he had ever seen and they have since accepted £13.5M. Fair enough ours was too low to accept but it should have been enough to get a back and forth going.

rule of business is money in hand is better than money projected in times of crisis. If we sold them for 15 million each, we would have signed players we need or desire by first day of pre season and have a settled squad.
In no world is a player not wanted by club worth the money club thinks they should get. When you are desperate to raise cash its the buying clubs terms more often.

Sometimes decisions need to be made keeping club, football, player at mind. Its not always about business and even if it is atm liverpool are playing the cards wrong.
