How funny would the meltdown be if he ended up at City now

I would take great delight in telling you all how wonderful the MEN is ... again. ;)

Van Dijk has told Liverpool he wants to join them, they must now negotiate a world record fee for a defender with Southampton. [@_pauljoyce]

Huge fee for Liverpool to pay.

I wonder what their budget will be?

 

[KunKun]

Wow, fair play to them. Guess this is the part where we pretend we didn't want him and he's not very good anyway.

No the Dippers won't pay £60m - they were in meltdown at the weekend when they thought we were paying that.

 

[doobyedoobye]

Very surprising if he actually has chosen Jurgen over Pep

It's not like they're paying for it

Yes because the people browsing RAWK are the ones who'll have to cough up the money. Fuckin tired of this meltdown shit.

I wonder if it's a simple as playing time. He'll be first choice at Liverpool, no guarantees at City. Plus half of his old Southampton is there.

It sounded like there was some interest, but it is entirely possible we never followed up on it.

Let's be honest, no blue tinted specs but there's no chance in hell a player would choose them over us. Someone will bring Milner up but he didn't really choose them, he chose the fat signing on bonus.

 

[cadds92]

Whilst I do think we will bring in a central defender, I still believe that Pep will want the Kompany-Stones partnership to be the primary defensive duo that flourishes this season.

I think Liverpool have put in the hard yards - they have been chasing him for ages which has probably convinced him to go there.

I'm annoyed but no point dwelling on it

Clearly a fool !! If he does not want to play for Pep then his loss, I am sure we have other irons in the fire - trust in Pep!!

 

[citizens_1976]

If he goes to Liverpool, good luck to him. I won't pretend I didn't want him because I did. Pep must be contemplating paying the fee and looking at other alternatives. He was hardly our main focus this season.

Not over until he is lifting up that liverpool shirt though. After all, he was joining city yesterday.

 

[117 M34]

Liverpool sign VVD after city cooled their interest

 

[Havoc]

Can lock this now i guess

Kinda confirmed he wants to join them?

 

[kaz7]

City are unlikely to rival Liverpool's offer for Van Dijk, which will see him become the most expensive defender of all time. [Guardian]
