He's shown that he's a red throug and through. Could've gone to other clubs bit has basically done everything in his powers yet remained professional throughout in order to come here. What a guy. When do you recon will be his first start? Klopp usually likes to ease new players in.

Does anyone think Netherlands not qualifying for the World Cup has helped make this transfer happen?

Well, he probably won’t start for a few weeks if Juergen is true to himself....

Although, we do of course want him to head the winner in the derby..

I’m releaved because we needed another Centre back..

Going to be interesting to see how Klopp integrates him.

Klopp's shown he's more than happy to take his time with new signings until he feels they're ready. Maybe we won't see him starting immediately.

And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you

We we would have been higher up in table and they would have been able to invest in their attack. Pretty straight forward really.

Oh I dunno, I think with central defenders it will be slightly different. I'd be surprised if it isn't him and Matip as a pair as soon as Virgil is registerd - so the Everton game then!

Wooooooooo fucking hooooooooooooooo!!

Just read a few articles while I was least expecting and then checked back the official site with not much hope, but there it was!!

Wooooooooo fucking hooooooooooooooo!!

Makes me think, we would never pulled these off a couple of years ago from the end of Rafa's era till now (the likes of Matip, Salah, Keita and Van Dijk). Klopp's getting his priorities in and how crucial is he in getting the players we need!

Think a big reason he was a target was his passing. He has a great ability to hit those 60 yard diagonals to the opposite side winger. I think we've been seeing Klavan do this more and more over his stint in the side, and I'm certain it will be more deadly with Salah/Mane running onto VVDs passes as he can hit them consistently.

I have no doubt Klopp was training our CBs to make  this pass with Virgil in mind.

He’s clearly a huge talker too, which can’t be underplayed and an absolute powerhouse. Be interesting to see if he comes straight in, and how confident he will be in getting the back line organised.

Get in😁 think he will need to get fully fit before we see his best.
With the fee being so high probably means phil is off, hopefully we do a deal so he goes next summer.

With CL and FA Cup, there will be enough games for all the CBs to make good contributions. We needed depth and quality in this area, and we've got just that.
