Pacho would do for me at CB though I would love Inacio personally
Emerson for DM but I would take Varela too, not keen on Koopemeiners personally
Nico Williams for LW all day long for me stand out possibility for that position
Maybe give Bakayoko a go at RW, would rather get someone now to shadow Salah than wait for next summer when he actually leaves and there isn’t a great deal of choice!

You do realise who our owners are?

Which means what exactly? Firstly, FSG does not make the player purchases, LFC does. Secondly, last summer LFC bought 4 players for over 150 million. No reason it can't be done again or even exceeded, given the new coach and contracts ending?

Spot on ArAy, a common misconception that FSG select / pay for the players and the clubs record of buying players that grey want and who want to play for us has been very good in recent years. I think there is another misconception that the more you pay for a player the better he is - personally I don’t think that’s the case.

But lads, have you considered "FSG bad"?
Ah.

Where did the "FSG out" crew disappear to?

There is no chance Nico Williams joins Liverpool this summer. Absolutely none. He's waiting for a move to FC Barcelona, where he'll get to play with his new best pal Lamine Yamal
Other than that, and in case Barcelona are skint, some ridiculous wages will be required to bring him to England, and it doesn't feel like the Liverpool way at all. More like Man City or Chelsea bound if he ever comes to the Premier League.

I'm still waiting for the guy who insisted we'd only sign free transfers and cheap players whilst selling off Gomez and Kelleher to balance the books, cos that's what an ex-pro who he couldn't name told him, to show up again, Flash.

Barcelona remind me of myself when i've had a couple beers and I fill my Amazon shopping basket with items I can't afford.

"they paid £150m last year no reason it won't happen again"
That is exactly the reason it won't happen again. We aren't united or Madrid and have limited budgets, klopp has twice had to have less than £20m budget. Maybe next year we spend that but I expect this summer will be fairly quiet.
As for Nico I wouldn't expect him unless we are willing to make him the highest paid player. His agent pushes for very high salaries, the number I heard in passing was 300k euros per week.
{Ed001's Note - that's not true. Klopp never 'had to have less the £20m budget' at all. He chose to spend less, there has never been a 'budget' as such.}

Exactly, Ed01. The club have said that if the manager wants a player and that a deal can be done then they will do all they can to get it done which they did countless times for Klopp. You know, like they did with Caicedo?
I see that Klopp4pm asked if the OP knew who our owners were sarcastically. I think it is him who needs to educate himself on who our owners are. Sarcasm, of course.
