Embarrassing focus from FSG, but no surprise.

Wasn’t arsed when he was getting £145m for Coutinho from Barcelona in the dodgiest transfer in football history was he?

That one very dodgy transaction was what started all this with over inflation of the transfer market, for who was a fairly average player.

How Liverpool and Barcelona weren’t investigated over that transfer dealing is a mystery. Coutinho wasn’t worth anymore than about £35m yet went for over four times that in a deal where Barcelona didn’t actually pay out any money for years yet Liverpool raked it in from it.

Are there not any rules for fair market value?
 
I haven't read the article but this is the headline.

Liverpool fans blast the Met Police over their response to 'tragedy chanting' heard during 1-1 draw with Chelsea after making just ONE arrest​

Did Liverpool fans blast GMP for not making any arrests when their fans filled cups with coins and injured a teenage girl when they threw one of these cups at her head?
 
You can taste the pain :)

It wasn’t Chelsea, Newcastle or Manchester City that led football down the closed shop of the Premier League and the quest for more tv money. Liverpool, United, Spurs, Arsenal and Everton were the culprits back in 1992. 15 percent for them and 10 percent for the rest of the league on Tv money, only way a club could bridge that gap was by having an owner with big pockets.

Jack Walker at Blackburn, John Hall at Newcastle, Alan Sugar at Spurs, Steve Gibson at Middlesbrough. They all had a good go at trying to break the monopoly that United had on the league. Could you remember any outcry at the time when they were spending? Probably because it didn’t make a dent on certain teams in red’s monopoly on n the league. Now our owners have come along and deposed them, City are now everything that is wrong about football. We didn’t start the fire though in the words of Billy Joel.

They didn’t make any arrests outside Anfield when their fans were stood on top of Police vans throwing missiles at our team coach. Was there not a steward injured during the event, tragedy chanting needs to be stamped out of the game. However actual attempts at causing situations where people could be killed and injured like the coin throwing incident at the league cup game and throwing bricks, bottles etc in a crowded area at a team coach should be seen as a much bigger priority due to the physical harm it causes.
 
The Caicedo debacle, in tandom with the reports of Liverpool attempting to force more thorough investigations of Chelsea—as they did with us via both UEFA and the PL all the while illegally accessing our scouting database, tapping up our staff, by some reports employing spies within our club, undertaking incredibly dodgy deals with the likes of Barcelona and Southampton, absolutely fucking their own local community with their real estate development programme, continually working with sponsors that have all manner of legal trouble, including being money launderers for terrorists, and supporting two of the most dangerous neofascists in world politics, whilst denouncing our ownership—is both truly hilarious and despicable.

How anyone thinks FSG is an example of how football club owners should operate is beyond me. They have been exposed as cheats and criminals in the MLB, in their US real estate businesses, and now much of their business dealings in the UK.

They are the antithesis of a positive force in the world, and most certainly in Liverpool, but they have the media and governing bodies (in the US and UK) so captured that they can spin anything and everything as they like and launch full scale smear campaigns at will.

They are a blight on football, and the world more broadly.

FSG—and the current Liverpool management—are extractors, not contributors. They take and give very little in return. The league, the UK, and the US would be much better off without them.
