If we beat Boro on Sunday and if we win the final qualifying round for the champions league proper then and maybe then we should start thinking about quality signings no point in counting our chickens before that however if everything works in our favour and we do have champions league football next year could we rekindle our interest in Jonas Hector or someone of his calibar for our lb position with Milner as back up no disrespect to young Robertson but if we are to make moves in the right direction surly we have to start buying quality players to strengthen the 1st team were it's needed, Robertson imo is not much of an upgrade on Milner and someone in the same vain as Clyne who himself is just not good enough to be 1st choice rb it just seems to be the same old same old just settling for mediocre players which will do nothing to solve the underlining defensive problem that has haunted us for years now come on FSG if we seriously want to start challenging for things it's time to start buying quality players now not kids with potential for the future put your money where your mouth is, don't forget Klopps net spend in the last 3 transfer windows has been less than £10 million time to get the warchest out and back Klopp big time in the market if we habour any ambitions of challenging for things on a regular basis in the near future . Rant over!

Would agree with u Adamski that we can't wait till the end of August I just wanted to point out that calibar of player we need to be going after has to be ready made to improve the 1st team not constantly buying kids with potential I'm quietly confident that we will win Sunday qualify for the Champions league 3rd round and hopefully win that to get us in there proper I just think we need to be aiming higher when it comes to getting quality players in to bring it up to the next level .

I checked. The OP was entirely, completely, one sentence. Now I'm imagining saying it without pause, with one breath only. LOL.

Notsozippy - it would make it a lot easier to read if you threw in a fullstop every now and then.
Regarding your original point, I haven't seen enough of Robertson to judge but I agree that we need to buy players to strengthen the team.

I have seen Robertson play a few times, he has a very good left foot, is strong, 23 rs old, can score a goal, very rarely misses a game thru injury, seems to be very level headed, he has a great engine, ticks quite a lot of boxes, including already settled into the Prem, and a really good price, I can see him being very solid . Sign him .

Disagree, Reforever. Robertson is not who we need as there are better LB's out there that we can get. We are interested in Ricardo Perreira who can play both RB and LB and has more quality end product in his left toe than Robertson possesses overall and Porto are willing to sell. I have seen him play and he is just quality would add to our squad and improve the first 11. Robertson is not even better than Milner and the only way that he is better is that he is naturally left footed, which means absolutely nothing.
