Liverpool and their manager Jurgen Klopp keep insisting that the club will no be doing any business in the transfer window. Who is responsible for this and is this decision final?
What are the tactical ramifications of this call from the club? Is there a way to remodel the approach we have seen from Klopp and still be able to rotate quality in and out?
What of Thomas Lemar – linked strongly in August but now a move to Liverpool looking less and less likely according to all reports. Should Liverpool pay a premium? What would he bring?
It’s a thoughtful show, hosted by Rob Gutmann with John Gibbons, Adam Smith and Neil Atkinson all in the chair throughout.

Thats was a great talk fellas, really enjoyed it and some great points well made. Lets hope you are all correct on Lemar and Sturridge.
The Gutter is my favourite show. This one was both very entertaining and incisive.
Really good chat, but what’s happened to the central league show?. Maybe we’re not buying anyone as the reserves are awesome?, but how would you know if you don’t live in Liverpool!.
Come on boys, you seem to have sakho’d the second best show on taw?. Has guttman added a release clause to his contract?, no wet Friday nights at prenton park?.
Read the Honnigstein book on Klopp if you want to know how he works.
It’s a really good read and things start to make sense.
This was a very good discussion – Gibbo and Adam making really good points. About Neil’s point on managing the manager, isn’t that what Chelsea do? Would that work at Liverpool right now considering we’re not yet at the level we’re building towards? And the Salah transfer comes up again and again, but I’m pretty sure Klopp’s comments in full were that that was a transfer they ALL agreed on, as in not just the recruitment team, so while you can argue that he should maybe take their advice more, you also have to wonder that maybe they give him loads of choices but they are of the 2014 summer standard. Considering the standard has improved in the last few windows, you can see why people say “trust Klopp”, however annoying it might get.
