Looking at our team & the way we are playing makes every Liverpool fan angry, I am surprised nobody has shown any discontent against FSG during our games !!!

What about now???? They saved the club from the worst owners, but they haven’t invested enough in the squad & this season we’re paying the price, when we fail to get top 4 this season it will another few years with heavy investment to try to get back in, look at Chelsea, City, United & Newcastle they have bottomless budgets for players & the Arsenal team is the youngest in the league & it will only get better !! They are making over 3 billion profit so they didn’t save the club because of the love of football, it’s a very profitable business

I am surprised some of the pink glasses fans are down thumb the obvious, take off your glasses and look , we’re 9th behind Brentford & Brighton !!!

The team is full of mediocre players on outrageous wages !!!, they give them a lot to avoid replacing them & pay transfer fee !!!

Agbogidi that's very funny... 😂😂😂😂😂😉😉👍

Spot on mate, inflated all future demands.
