All the latest news and analysis from Anfield on the Liverpool Echo's dedicated LFC Facebook page“Liverpool fans have been desperate for Liverpool to spend real big money, maybe like we've seen Man City or Chelsea in the past in one summer,” he said.“Everyone was excited in the summer, but it didn't feel Liverpool-like to me, or certainly over the last ten years and how they got to the top under Jurgen Klopp.“It felt almost Real Madrid – go and buy the best players for loads of money.
