Ronnie Whelan has not been impressed by Jurgen Klopp's transfer business
Liverpool have brought in three players this summer and set a new club record with the arrival of Mohamed Salah from Roma.
Dominic Solanke on a free transfer from Chelsea looks like a shrewd bit of business, as does the arrival of Andy Robertson from Hull.
However, Anfield legend Ronnie Whelan has not been impressed by his former club’s transfer business, branding them ‘amateurs’.
“Set against the business [Manchester] United and City have done, Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp look like amateurs,” he told the Irish Independent.

Jurgen Klopp rubbishes new Philippe Coutinho transfer rumours
“Worse, Ronald Koeman and Everton have been spending like they’ve found a money tree.
“I think there there is deep frustration among Liverpool fans that the club cannot seem to push on and make the kind of signings a blind man can see that [Jurgen] Klopp needs to make.
“I think everyone was unsettled by Klopp’s admission that he is not in control of the [Philippe] Coutinho situation.
“But even more worried that Liverpool’s transfer policy seems to drift along.
“Everyone can see that Klopp needs better defenders and more goalscoring options up front.
“Yet the biggest transfer story of the last month at Anfield is about a big player leaving.”
