Virgil van Dijk

I trust Delph more than I do mendy defensively. Delph has been rock solid apart from one goal against united, although you could say it was otamendis fault. Mangala is still the problem for me.

I trust Delph more too. But lets not pretend its just been the 1 goal against United. I clearly remember him misjudging the flight of the ball against Southampton too. Not to mention a few others that didn't cost us.

But that's normal for all defenders. What I cherish most about him is how calm and skilled he is in possession.

Mendy is young and new to the league. Will be top class given time. Beast of a player.

I don’t disagree but he looks a bit suspect defensively in the few games I’ve seen him. One on one I think he there’s for the taking, but his attacking abilities makes up for it.

The few times Mendy played - he was back from an injury and certainly wasn’t at his best.

This is the VVD thread guys.

I believe this lad will move either in Jan or Summer, the fee will be high but in the context of other transfers it may actually seem reasonable. The most likely is IMO Liverpool especially if a summer move, well it will be their year. If it is Jan I think it will be us, greatest chance of getting medals etc We will know within the next 6 -7 weeks.

Think we would find it difficult keeping kompany, otamendi, stones and van dijk all happy

Kompany broadly irrelevant these days and hate saying that. We have learned to cope without him and suspect he will be 4th choice at best.

The missing piece - for now! Got it all to play in a Pep side.
Would also be a shame to allow the dippers to address their problems with such a complete player.

 

[BlumerMooner]

Get him - 70 m so be it.

Already knows the Prem league and arguabally the best available defender out there.

Would fit right in and has potential to be as good as Kompany on his hay day - and possibly a better passer of the ball.

I'd go for him in Jan and put off Sanchez until the end of the season.

He'll like leroy's and kevin's corners
