Because

the the the squad will be on its knees and that is almost too much to do.

So I think those two footballers at his right where they wanted, doesn't Tims have been able to negotiate.

But I just think

I think you're talking about six hundred grand across the two players.

That for me just felt

Really, really astronomical fees.

Not to say they're not good footballers and not to say I wouldn't have offered them new deals, by the way.

I'd have wanted them both to stick around, but probably not on the money that they end up getting.

Because I think that what that does is put you in a situation where you feel obliged to try and fit them in somewhere and play them and have them in more involved more often than not because you're paying them so much dough.

there's almost an expectation.

But if you're paying some off 300 grand a week

You better be fucking playing more often than not.

Otherwise he's just sitting on the bench on 300 grand a week, and that doesn't feel hugely sensible.

So I think that's where Liverpool have got themselves into some tricky spots where they've felt that they've needed to do stuff because of other poor decisions that have led them down a certain path.

And I think when you think about last think about the summer.

Of last year when obviously um you know, Salah comes out and starts having a bit of a pop online at people talking about, you know

certain exits and certain players coming in and replacing them and talking about upgrades in that context and salad biting back a little bit and almost saying have a bit of respect.

Mm-hmm.

You'd almost do get a sense that what Liverpool were doing in the boardroom was not necessarily landing very well with the playing squad.
