Couldn't it actually be as simple as Klopp being aware of what he has to spend and choosing to wait for the right player rather than go splash it out on someone he's not as committed to? After all, if he blows 35m on a player and gives them a 7m 5yr contract that's a 70m commitment.... maybe, just maybe, he's keeping his powder dry to bring in the player he thinks is the absolute best in the position he wants to strengthen.. which, for me, is absolutely fair enough.. yes, i realise the impact that could have on the season but i've bemoaned the fact that we haven't given managers the players they want in the past so if we've got a manager thats holding out for a particular player (or players) and is willing to back his management of the current team through the season while waiting for those players to be available then so be it.. god knows what it would be like had he brought in this fictional 70m player i mention and he flopped.... and then didn't have the cash to go buy his 'right' player to replace him.. all of which goes back to the owners i suppose and us not having the funds to properly compete and/or being able to cope with having a flop.. we basically have to get virtually every signing right..
