Virgil van Dijk

[Lancet Fluke]

of course I'd want best possible defenders, it's just that defense is not priority at this moment and with philosophy (hey van gaal, what's up) our manager has. He'll continue to play as we do, so let us convert our chances first.

Fair enough. Think we will struggle to challenge for the title for as long as defence isn't a priority and we concede so many cheap shitty goals. Only my opinion though obviously.

Not true mate.

They already played two league matches without him even in the squad.

They also just bought 23 year old centerback Wesley Hoedt from Lazio for €16m.

Also purchased 21 year old centerback Jan Bednarek from Lech Poznan for €6m:

VVD is 100% leaving this transfer window.

Yep, I reckon he's going this window too also think that if we wanted him we could get him because they'd much rather sell to us than Liverpool and although Liverpool may be his preferred destination, I reckon he just wants out now and any champions league club would be fine by him.

 

[Easy]

Agreed. Personally think no way he goes to Liverpool after everything. Cheslea look like the front runners, no club outside of England will pay his fee so we should really make a bid.

Its ok saying offer this etc get him etc , perhaps he doesn't want to come

 

[Sheikh rattle and roll]

Sounds like a good plan , I personally am not to bothered that Jonny Evans is an ex red , its more his age for me , I have always preferred young hungry players . VVD looks quality though I would much prefer him.

If we were seriously in for Mbappe, as well as Sanchez, even at a lower price, we must have a serious wad of money left, even on top of the Sanchez fee.

Pep, tell JfE to go away, & spend it on Van Dijk, FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

it is strange isn't it? we have over £100m ready to splash on one player and it didn't interfere with the sanchez deal yet wont spend on a top CB?!

I don't understand it.

 

[without a dream]

I don't understand it.

There's been rumours we've had the funds for a Messi/galactico transfer stashed away for some time, it's a separate budget to the rest of the transfer spending and as good as VVD is he doesn't fit into that bracket.
