I'm not sure I'd say 'easily' but assuming their 4 signings don't all flop, they'll certainly be closer and are likely to pull further clear or Arsenal and Cheatski

Let's wait and see how these 'amazing new signings' go in a competitive match before making ridiculously hyperbolic comments eh? Still think Klopp is their biggest problem...
They are genuine quality signings - we can dream that they will all flop but they wont. Even Shaqiri is a good addition to have on the bench/squad rotation to add something different. They have better depth to their squad now, and Im not one to buy into shiny new toys but as things stand they are in a better position than us to challenge for honours....
Yes that is fair. Have they actually spent that much when you consider the Coutinho sale?Factor in TV money etc Im guessing they havent spent a massive amount net wise?

Would be interesting to see the numbers yea, but that Coutinho money was already spent and some by the outlays on Keita and VVD. So Fabinho, Shaquiri and Alison should all be straight outgoings, no player sales to offset these against.
Im not suggesting they are buying their way to success like City/Chelsea etc in an immoral way or whatever just that they are backing the manager on his priority signings and spending big sums by doing so - if we were backing Poch in the same manner id be adjusting my expectations in line with that.
Alisson, VVD, Salah, Ox, Keita, Fabinho, Mane
That's 350m-400m spent on 7 of their starting XI - you spend that sort of money then you need to deliver

I had a debate with a few Spurs fans early last season when i said IF they could get a decent CB and a good keeper they will be a threat, well they have done that ( if they get this keeper), add that to the players they already have and i can see them being a threat next season. But its Liverpool and i am sure there are some on here who will disagree.

What is it with the permanent Liverpool love in? FFS theyve spent gazillions before and still not got any closer.
And, all the while Klopp is there, the same issues will persist. Wenger MKII.

That's absolutely right. They have no hiding place if they underachieve this year.
It's no love-in to suggest that them bringing in a few big-money signings of quality to upgrade their current shoddy players means that they now look more dangerous.
I am a little worried that our opening game at the new stadium could turn out to be an unhappy affair. You just know that if we get beaten, the crowing Scousers and media allies won't shut up about it for months.
Still, there's a way to go before then, and signing decent players isn't the same as forging a great team.

I think they will be right up there in the League this season.
Agreed.
