My take on this transfer business:

Everyone is assuming LFC hasn't done any more transfer business because they are waiting to hear from the FA.

Everyone is panicking because Teams X, Y and Z have announced signings A, B and C.

We have skirted as close as possible to the edge of the law with respect to transfers. I'm certain we are not the only offenders but we may be one of the worst. Accept that fact.
How stupid would we look, or have to be, to announce more signings before the transfer window officially opens, considering we are being scrutinised by the FA.
Klopp has told us a lot of hard work has been done. I imagine soon after the window opens we will announce some signings.
Just chill and wait a few weeks. All will be revealed 😎.

I don't think you are getting the point nor half of the people on this page. To agree a transfer with any club you don't need a window! Milan has agreed to buy 3 players from their respective clubs including medicals. It's absolutely fine! Window is just an official time frame for the clubs to REGISTER THE TRANSFERS WITH FA.

My worry by the time this WINDOW gets open and running the good players would have already swapped clubs!

Bernardo Silva will join City and I don't think you need a window to explain it!

Your sensible post will be in vain. Very well put though, and hits the nail on the head.

"Form fit and function" - I get the point, I RTFPs from ed002.

My point is to look at things from LFC or even FSG's perspective. Our club is being scrutinised. We have to appear totally legit. I would not be surprised if FSG have said "no more leaks or announcements until July 1st or someone loses their job! ".

We want our club to behave better in the transfer market. From my point of view - we are.

I have absolutely no complaints over FSG. They are in no way responsible for the mess we are in. I replied to you on the context of ". Window hasn't opened yet. " which has been ongoing on the page from sometime.
You just don't need a window at all mate! All you need to agree with the club and player! It's that simple!
We bought a lot of players in the past even before the window was open.
My only worry is the club missing out on first choice targets which has been one of the reason for our decline over the years!

Second and last time:

I know you don't need a window, the whole world knows that!

We are being scrutinised.
It makes sense for us to appear to be playing by the rules.
It makes sense for us to not make any announcements until the transfer window is open when we can legitimately give all the correct paperwork to the FA.

What benefit is there to announcing players before you can register them? Only benefit is it stops drama queens from having daily paddys about the club being left behind.

Quite frankly, the drama queens will have to get over it!

@ Form fit and function

We could already be working on a ton of signings that no one knows about. Just because it's not out in the ether, doesn't mean it isn't happening.

I will be happy if the club has completed the business behind the doors and are waiting for the window to open to announce. I am afraid that's not the case here! 🙄.

Well F, F&F to know that you'd have to be Klopp or Henry or Edwards.

Form Fit and Function

U have no idea. All the team at liverpool fc must be doing absolutely nothing then. Going into work every morning, just checking a few emails. Having a cup of coffee and then going home again.

Get a grip, they are working everyday to get deals done, just because we do not hear about it doesn't mean it isn't happening.

I'd rather we didn't hear about the deals they might be working on after recent weeks to be honest. might be stressful to not have any Colour, but better to judge the window on results rather than Rumours.
