Topic: Virgil Van Dijk (Cpt)

[Nobby Reserve]

Well that's come out the blue..

 

There's going to be lots of pundits & hacks pissed off that he hasn't joined Manchester City or Man U.

[smarties]

Omg a defender and a goalkeeper. He better be for that price. Worlds gone mad but welcome and god speed Virgil [emoji23]

[Nick110581]

City were quoted £60m and vaulted at that.... we’ve had to pay a £15m premium for the summer screw up...

Source?

[Doc Red]

Is he injured at the moment?. After the mediocre season he has had so far, the best thing about this is he will be in good shape for the next season, try your damnedest to disregard the price tag while he learns to fit in folks.

Really?
I haven't been paying attention to their games, but his season has been mediocre?

[Red Beret]

Let our rivals worry about the fee.  Fuck them.

We've got ourselves a player and it sends a strong message of intent to other potential targets that we (finally) mean business. 

FSG have aggressively expanded Liverpool's commercial side so the money is a piece of piss.  Let others scratch their heads and wonder where all the money is coming from.  We can just sit back and enjoy the game.

Probably had to pay a trendy 'Calendar year' premium too by the looks.

His head hasn't been in it. Ever since he wasn't allowed to move in the Summer he basically was just going through the motions for the Saints. I have no doubt now he got his move and is playing for Klopp he'll have a fire under him to prove everyone how good he can be.

City were quoted £60m and baulked at that.... we’ve had to pay a £15m premium for the summer screw up...

Likely according to City sources.. Of course, when they hear he is having a medical at Liverpool the next day, they'd want to play up that narrative

[L8Craig]

Probably something to do with Southampton having been generally shite all season.

[Upinsmoke]

Now get a top shot stopper and the defense is sorted.
Actually that would be the whole team sorted.

and a #6

Worth it, we've got VvD and we've learnt a valuable lesson.

[TepidT2O]

I came from the MEN I think. 

£60m was too much for them.  Given how much they spent last summer, there must be SOME limit to there funds

John Henry splashing the cash!*




*The Coutinho money

[Thudercut]

According to Olivier Bond and Graeme Kelly our next target is Goretzka who is very keen to join

i wouldn't be surprised after an unsettled summer where he wasn't training for a while.

[lclettin]

Welcome to the best club in the world.... YNWA

1 light in midfield now and two on the way out. Not quite sorted. Its getting there now though.

[RedBootsTommySmith]

He was good in Mary Poppins.

Chancers and speculation. They don't belong in here

[Johns_Barn]

Fucking blue lights on his tree.

The Saints dropped a bollock in the summer,they could and obviously should've accepted the bid and then done their own transfers before it was announced,now they are going to get fleeced 

Exactly what I was thinking... Strange.

They fucked off when they knew he chose us in the summer, simple.

Two possibly on the way out, one more likely than the other and that one is the German, not the Brazilian.

[Anfield89]

 more likely we have had to pay more because city wanted him.

I can only be so erect

shut up mate. zzzzzz

[vagabond]

Maybe posted already, but I can't be bothered looking:

Virgil van Dijk 'can be a great' as Liverpool agree to pay £75m for defender

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40730793

This is a great read. Wish we heard more often from scouts rather than cliche-factories we get on our screens.

[Fiasco]

Those two are absolute chancers. They chat Derek Acorah levels of absolute wham.

[red1977]

Well the bitters where right to smirk at us, we are skint after all.

[Nick110581]

Be a brilliant signing then we need a keeper.

[redgriffin73]

Cannot wait to witness Southampton fans literally booing our entire team for 90 minutes when we next play them!

[Anfield89]

strange how right they have been.

He’ll be judged on the basis of his performances which is the only thing he can control

[Nick110581]

Two on the way out when?

[Eeyore]

Fuck the money pretty much all fees are farcical now. Great signing pretty much the perfect centre back for our system.

[Caligula?]

That's come out of nowhere. I'm quite pleased.

[Fiasco]

strange how right they have been.

A broken clock is right twice a day. 90 percent of the stuff they come out with turns out to be wrong.

[Dim Glas]

strange how right they have been.

who? That Kelly guy? He's an absolute chancer. No idea bout the other guy, never heard of him

[Nick110581]

City would have clearly matched our offer as they have endless funds.

He wanted to join us as Klopp took him to Blackpool. 

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Welcome to the club Virgil.

Not arsed about the fee, I am glad that the manager is getting what he wants (we have signed all of our targets, Salah,Keita,VVD,Chamberlain) and refused Barca in the summer. The club is backing the manager, which is the most important thing

[Anfield89]

Two on the way out when?

summer not jan.
