Jurgen Klopp makes claim about Liverpool's summer transfer window

Liverpool are passive during this summer transfer window but Jurgen Klopp has claimed that he is delighted with the way his side is. “There was never the intention to spend again because of the team we had last year which is a wonderful age group," said Klopp. “It’s only in England where you come up with ‘now bring in more quality and new faces’ and all that stuff at the end of a season. “Divock Origi has a new contract and all the others have stayed – THAT is transfer business” blasted Klopp. “I know people smile and even laugh about it, that’s just how it is. “But keeping a team like this together is not easy. Half the world would like to have these guys. And they (other clubs) don’t throw nuts – they have money as well! It’s like this. “We wanted to keep that team together and it means consolidation, pay the bills, play football, go for everything then after the season we can have a look what happened. “But this team deserves another year together – that’s how it is. So absolutely it’s a bonus just keeping these guys together for another year. “We have fresh blood and fresh legs. Naby Keita is pretty much a new player, Oxlade too, Brewster is a new player, Divock Origi is a new player. “The rest can make steps and improve and then afterwards we can talk about how they develop. But we cannot buy the quality we have up front every summer and say ‘come on, we are bringing another one in of this quality’. “That doesn’t work so that’s why I don’t like too much to discuss that concept.” The Reds won the Champions League last term and were close to winning the Premier League as well. This season they will aim to win the PL as well as repeat last season's success at the UCL. via Mirror
