Ha ha. Touched a nerve have I?
All I've done is asked the question to those very irritated about a lack fo midfield signing to ask themselves why we have bought a midfielder yet and who is making that decision?
No-one has really answered that but continued to shout about the madness of not signing midfielder.
I'll leave it at that though. You, in particularly, clearly don't have the capacity to take wider view or have a debate. By asking some questions I thought I'd open up that debate beyond the continued same thing being repeated again and again. Your response above clearly indicates you don't want a a debate or have even really read my posts.
Like I've said previously, I'd have bought a midfielder this summer. I'm not even debating that or arguing that. I'm asking the question why people think we haven't and who is making that decision (that may not even by Klopp in some people's eyes).
Thing is, you've posted this about five to ten times in the last few days Jookie. So I'm not sure why you're trying to needle on the touching a nerve point?
The funny thing is, the thing that you believe is the only rational answer to your posed question isn't the only answer.
You seem to have forgotten January last year, where Klopp said he wanted a centre back but wasn't going to get one. And Klopp being Klopp, who has talked before about how he has great relationships with his colleagues and isn't one to rock the boat if they see things differently, allowed this to pass and told people publicly that it was the case (that we won't be signing a centre back, and that's fine).
This continued until about halfway through the window, that changed and he went public with his frustration and lo and behold, the thinking changed and the club got to work on several options and ended up signing two (thankfully one of them only a loan).
So it's all well and good constantly posing 'but have you asked yourself, why is it that we are choosing not to sign a midfielder?' - and your proposed explanation is feasible for now (with a month left of the window), and will remain feasible right up until it might be proved completely wrong (if the club moves for a midfielder).
Your entire point, trying to make sense of things we can't possibly know, is predicated on post-hoc rationalisation. If you'd posted it mid January 2021 it would be nodded along with by many, people would have added that we don't sign stop gaps, some would have said we need to keep a path for VDB and Williams, and there'd have been a nice discussion. But it would all have been blown out of the water by the end of the window.
Simple fact is that this whole thing comes down to more than just Klopp's decision, no matter how many times you try to encourage people to consider that he doesn't want to sign a midfielder. It's much more complex than that, and involves people who we won't even know the names of, and (crucially) they will be people who - as in January - react to circumstances. When new information becomes available, they will act on that new information, even if (hypothetically) they were previously thinking on similar lines to you earlier this window.
