No comment on that. But i do agree salah proves me wrong. When he first arrive, i was like wtf, why are we buying him? A chelsea flop!

I think the first one was mane? Someone from southampton. Then the trend goes on with salah, then jota (when everyone were raving another wolves attacker Adams traore)

cannot like this la...
list of players LFC signed from lower divisions can go on and on...
anyway...Cunha was a replacement for Jota...
so no reason for FSG to go for Cunha.
Isak i feel is quite inconsistent... maybe cos Newcastle also quite stupidly inconsistent...
Mbuemo is ok... but wtf do we need so many up front anyway...
priority should still be another CB and also LB like Kerkez...
and another no8 or no10...
Isak is gaining consistency now. But he hasn't shown he is capable of staying injury free for a long period of time, so dun think we should be signing him.
Mbeumo will be a brilliant signing to replace or eventually replace salah. Chiesa may be gone as well next season.
Signing a left back looks like a certainty already

Not about lower division or not la. Its the quality of players. There are rumours slot want to sell diaz, nunez and even jota. If 2 of them go, then we need 2 more players as replacement. We playing with 3 forwards, so we need at least 5 forwards in the squad.
Actually, not only CB and LB. We need to have a total squad revamp. Many of our players are at the wrong side of 30s already. Core players no need to say la, all >30s. If we didnt buy more players in the next 2 years, we gonna be like city, unable to sustain.
City planning is damn good. They already start to plan many years ahead with their purchase this and last year. Look at the players they field up last night. Doku, nico, josko, all aged 22/23. Khusanov and savinho 20. Just 20! Savinho and doku overrun our fullbacks so easily.
How many players we have in the age of 20-23 that able to play like them? Only ryan and szobo. The rest of our first teamer is late 20s to 30s.
City planning is not good la actually. If their planning is good then we won't see this season decline. What makes you think they are good is bcoz they have money to burn, so whatever flaws they have with their planning they just cover it up with money. If doku fails they just buy another one until he comes good (and so far I haven't see anything to suggest doku has been a successful buy, stats wise) Comparing to our struggle two seasons ago (which is very similar to city) klopp wasn't able to sign anyone mid season, but city spent 200m last month.
