We’ll see where he ends up, but an opportunity missed if we don’t get him. One of the best central defenders in the league, with years ahead of him and great potential once Pep works his magic.
Gives us the necessary top quality CB cover (Stones/Ota/VVD) for the next 5 years minimum.
Liverpool NEED him more than we do, but we should be building for total domination and I have a feeling he is coming to us. Hope so. ... and a massive statement if so

Believe me it does
Some of the best centre back pairings in the prem have both been right footed. It doesn’t matter one bit.

Obviously this is assuming we are interested in him. But if he chooses Liverpool over us, when all the various issues are weighed up, he clearly isn’t right for us.
We need players who can dig in mentally, fight for a place in the best team in Europe right now, and learn from one of the best managers to walk the face of the planet. We need someone who has the cojones to go out and win trophies.
Or he can go to Liverpool, get his payday, walk into the team every week and not have to worry about getting involved in these big games that the top players have to thrive in.

I would like VVD but if it is not to be then I am sure we have other players targeted, i still think that at £60 million he is over priced.
In an ideal world we would be looking at a centre half who will becoming to there best in couple of years time. If this is the case then there is no reason for us to be paying top dollar for them.

He'd look like absolute crap at Liverpool under Klopp. So would Otamendi, Jerome Boateng, Gerard Pique and just about any central defender in the world. Klopp has no clue how to organise that defence in what is essentially a hit-and-hope system which relies on the forwards outscoring the opposition and buying new players won't help as long as he's in charge. If Van Dijk would genuinely prefer to go to Liverpool and play Europa League football than come and learn from the best manager of all time at a club that could be embarking on a period of European dominance then I wish him good luck.
However, I don't think he will. Liverpool fans think it's still the 80's, when top players always wanted to play for them. In recent years they've been similarly confident of signing Marco Reus, Mendy and Aubameyang. Of course everyone else could see that all of those players are too good for a mid-table Prem side but Liverpool fans didn't listen.

bit of a batty boy if he goes to Liverpool because that's not what I PERSONALLY wanted.
