If the dippers were to sign say Maddison, Mount and Gravenbach for the Bellingham fee then no question it was the right decision by them? We need the one big player hence we do the fee?

So basically there is no evidence previous to 35 years ago that supports Liverpool’s second rate player recruitment?
This narrative that Liverpool pulled out is funny. How do you go from articles on Jude's decision being imminent to pulling out....
Oh yeah they got told he wasn't going there
And now have to hold face because of the embarrassment of allowing the press for years to make out Liverpool was his preferred destination.

Agreed. There’s a fine line between the two sides of it.
Ultimately dippers can’t afford to pay the money on one player because they’ve fucked up their midfield so much by not recruiting properly for the past 4/5 years. Hence is makes total sense for them to reserve that Bellingham fee/budget and rebuild the whole midfield.
However we’ve done the opposite and have recruited perfectly and are in a position whereby 5/6 players can alternate between the 3 positions in midfield hence only need to spend on one player. Bellingham.
I think both of us will look at this as having good summer windows. It’s just we’ll have had the better one because we’d be getting a matured 19 year old player with the world at his feet because we didn’t need to rebuild.
If anything it just highlights the brilliance of the people higher up and Pep’s coaching and (as if we didn’t know it anyway) proves it’s not all about money.
It is a understood by deluded, upset and emotional Liverpool fans that….
And by bitter, clueless, guessing, click-bait, red shirt, shill, journalist.
As others have noted, has there even been a campaign like the Bellingham one by journalists to try and get him to sign for Liverpool, and then when that isn’t going to happen, to come out with excuses after excuses, and reasons after reasons why it didn’t happen.
it is absolutely pathetic and shows how much control LFC have over football journalists in this country.

I’d take Bellingham, KDB and Grealish over them 3 all the time. As well as Rodri and Foden. I’d love Gundo and Bernardo to stay, but it looks like they are going, sadly.

I don't think that article is necessarily wrong. It doesn't say what the "not right" move would be. If say, only PSG are willing to match Dortmunds asking price, perhaps he would prefer to stay there for another year?
I have no doubt we have a good chance. I doubt Haalanbd would be having anywhere near the season he is having, had he stayed another year at Dortmund.
