We're both shite. I think his point was your transfers this season haven't panned out, which is true. Our transfers (for the most part) have been excellent. We both are struggling tremendously on the defensive front and until we address those areas we can continue to expect WTF results occasionally. Also competing with Chelsea and City this season is going to be very difficult if not impossible so w're fighting for those last two champion's league spots.
Should be interesting.
This guy gets it.

I agree, but I think you guys are just writing off everyone as a whole. We have a very different mentality when it comes to transfers. Markovic and Can were players who we bought with eyes on next year. From the beginning no one expected them to hit the ground running. Lallana has been excellent. I'm astounded how wrong I was about him. The two fullbacks have also been terrific buys.
You have a point with Loveren, but I called that from day one. Dude was a terrible buy and for an even worse price. Origi will be brilliant, but again, will be one for the future, like Lazar. Ballo has yet to play with a strike partner outside of Spurs, where we won 3-0. Studge's injury has killed any chance for his success and I will reserve judgment until Brendan plays him in the way he should to be played.
Whether you agree with the transfer strategy or not (I personally don't), most of these guys were never intended to light the league on fire from day one. Its comparing apples to oranges.

The transfer policies were apple and oranges, you guys went big on a couple of WC players and paid way over the odds on a couple (Shaw/Herrera)..
edit: not saying they are bad players
We went for youth and depth and did pay over the odds for Lallana & Lovren... and whiffed on our big target, Sanchez...
IMO.. we needed to bring in more ready to play guys... And a fricking DM.. I think most LFC supporters have not been sold on BR's transfer policy since he's been here..
