Well prices are hard to judge right now but the fact you don’t even see a £30m player is strange. On form he’s in the top two or three centre backs in the league.

I’ve always hated him at Saints as he’s normally excellent against us.

To be fair pal prices are inflated anyway and think we get fucked over because of who we are now, yes £20 million was tongue in cheek but honestly don't see £60 for that amount of dough there has to be someone better for that amount I may be wrong though
 
He is typically modern Liverpool type of player. He is better than what they have got (although there isn't much of a gap in quality between them) and at times van Dijk can be the type of player who is a game raiser against us and a few other teams but the rest of the time looks ordinary.

I think by the looks of it this is the defender Pep and Txiki have picked out and initially Van Dijk would be a summer transfer target, but because Liverpool are so keen it has forced our hand and we now have to move in January.

£70m is excessive though.

I reckon we could get Jerome Boateng for less than that.

Obviously a wind up post :-)
 
I've had my doubts about him from his positioning and concentration occasionally in highlights. Evidence shows Southampton are suffering without him though so on balance maybe he deserves the benefit of the doubt because he's in a weaker team. He's comfortable with the ball at his feet and a big, strong guy which we could use given the average height of our first eleven and the decline of Vinny. I'd be delighted to see this happen.

You wouldn’t pay £20m for one of the best centre backs in the league before he got injured last season? That’s pretty mental if you ask me.

Have to agree 20m possibly 30m tops, hes been shit this season. Saints have been terrible at the back and so has he. Just cause the mickeys want him doesn't mean he's any good. Tosin deserves his chance ahead of the overrated VVD. Hell he was shit two seasons ago aswell that's why he went to Celtic.
