Am I the only person that gets sick of so called supporters slagging off potential signings before we have even bought them or seen them in action? let's take a brief look at our history when we rules Europe.

Kevin Keegan signed from Scunthorpe, hardly a champs league team, Ray Clemence coming from the same club.

Mark Lawrenson coming from Brighton, Ian Rush from Chester, more recently Sami Hyypia from Willem II or Dan Agger from Brondby.

These are all players that started out lower class teams but became legends in their own time.

I will not slate new players brought in, they have been identified for a reason and I will give Klopp the chance to make these players identified and bought into the club the chance to prove their worth to us.

I just get annoyed when I see a player slated before even kicking a ball for us in anger, yes we are all allowed an opinion, but for Christ's sake, give them a chance to show us what they have before writing them off.

Gini Wijnaldum has not even signed yet, but some people are seeing this as a disaster.

Lets take a reality check, we are not the pull we were years ago, we have no Euro football to attract anyone and those we do sign will have come to get us where we want to be, not where we are now.

Just give them a fair chance is all I ask.

Rant over.

So £27m for a player who couldn't be bothered last year and is in a position we're well covered for is good business then?

Difference is Grinchy that all of those players you mentioned were players that were widely accepted and recognised as being highly talented and could succeed at the highest level, Wijnaldum failed that test last year, he was really poor.

If klopp thinks it's good business then I support the decision.
