whoever that is will be crying on social media he got rejected no doubt

[ChaChaMooMoo]

One place and situation where a double legged tackle and a karate chop wouldn't be totally out of place.

[Dubred]

Is he not just the coolest man on the planet?!  Even the way he shoves away a stupid fan.......cool personified!

[Welshred]

Fingers crossed the injury he sustained last night doesn't affect him too much...

He sustained an injury?

[Welshred]

He sustained an injury?

He did yes, a dislocation no less

A dislocation of... (crosses self and says ten hail marys even though I'm not a catholic).

[El Lobo]

Finger

But he walked off with it, so should be fine

[Welshred]

Yep, it was his finger he'll be fine

[mickl]

HMS Virgil is not to be messed with.

Some may say it's an overdramatic thought, but yes he had no mask on and was breathing really close to him, and Virgil touched him.

There's a reason why there is a red zone since covid. He could of easily transmitted something to Virgil there. Reminds me of Klopp when he said "Put your hands away you fucking idiots" against Atletico.

van Dijk looked good and played well.

However I was again impressed by Haaland (he had 3 good opportunities scored 1, keeper saved and hits the post) - on top of this VVD vs Haaland edit there is another shot on target that hits the upright post.

Haaland is amazing. He is very quick as well.

Bastard!

Heard a thing last week which is either astonishing or I mis heard it completely. That during Dortmunds game a sprint by Haaland was clocked as the fastest ever speed in the Bundesliga. After typing that and reading it, it was surely the latter of the 2.

[Captain Caveman]

He goes off to International duty now so fingers crossed they handle with due care.

Thus far though an amazing thumbs up to the medical team, physio team and Virgil himself because he looks amazing.

I suspect you may have had a hand in his injury with those knuckleheaded comments

You must not have seen much of Haaland in the last few years since he played us.
He is one the fastest players in the world. Right up there with Mbappe.

[tubby]

Haaland isn't lightning over 5-10 yards like Salah or Mane, but he's one of those players that absolutely motors the further he runs.  His top speed will be crazy.

I haven't really to be honest. Didn't realise he was so quick. Just had it in my head that wasn't one of his attributes.

The fastest he's ever run was his sprint over to the Arsenal supporters when he scored against them for City.

Just .61mph slower than Mbappé but the next question has to be over how big a distance,for how long and how quick did he get there.

Aye that's the one I meant, he was like a train when he hit the halfway line it was brilliant

Yaya Toure took an age to get doing but once he did there was absolutely nothing stopping. Not even Bolt at full pelt.

Haaland is a brilliant player, hopefully he doesnt end at the red mancs. However, that a fucking crap highlight video. Surely VVD and Haaland had many more duals than the episodes highligted here.

They didn't actually that have many. That video was one example, there was another when Van Dijk won a header off a corner against Haaland. I watched the game and the Dutch dominated, Haaland basically got very little service.

Van Dijk looked good in the game but Haaland is pretty incredible. Was hardly involved but the second that there was an attack his movement was absolutely brilliant. He hit the post with another shot and should have scored.

Once Lewandowski shows some level of drop off, this guy is going to be by quite a big distance the best striker in world football.

[Andy82lfc]

Like Adebayor 

Any excuse to post that, what a nutcase  Talk about inciting a riot.

At the reported 800k a week wages Raiola is trying to get for him there's only two clubs he ends up at...

Straight replacement for Mbappe?

Anyway any time I see this thread title my heart sinks in case Virgil has succumbed to another injury.
