Bonnuci would be a good signing also. But you have to consider his age and the fact he's never played in the prem (had to say it). He's always played with a class defence too. I think van dijk is the better signing of the two, but I wouldn't complain with either. We've made so many bad signings at centre back over the years, I finally think this is the one that could potentially replace Kompany.
bonucci could play till he's 34/5 mate,I'm not over keen with van dijk not sure what it is.
 
Find it hard to believe any article that tries to claim to know what the contract would be. What source would know that? I call bullshit
 
i think if we buy him we might play 3 at the back. I think stones needs to play/start as many games as possible to develop into the top centre back we are hoping.

we wont even be able to fit half our players on the bench at this rate and if we get him its actually insane the amount of money we are spending.

The Times have been pretty bad with us the past few windows, remember them constantly insisting we wanted Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wilshere.

Van Dijk would be awesome though, physical beast and an excellent passer, £50m is a bit much but all prices are like that these days.

The wages look the potential deal breaker.

Chelsea and City look both prepared to pay £50m but we are offering 10K more in wages by the reports.

Liverpool are offering 60k wages less than us.
 
The Perfect CB for us but I do have a problem with the price.
Stones went for £47.5m. City paid £42m for Mangala as well. David Luiz went to PSG for £50m in 2014. This is the going rate for top defenders now. Laporte's clause is £55m for example.

Aren't we always told by those that know that all first teamers are on £100k basic with a personalised bonus structure?

They're reliable journos for Liverpool so the source would be Liverpool.

And Liverpool would know because if they were in discussions with VVDs agent, what other clubs are offering, what liverpool have to beat, would be a pretty fundamental part of negotiations.

The fact we paid 47.5 M for Stones and 42 m dor Mangala doesn't mean it is ok. Thats why Levy ask 50 m for Walker and every team in the world raise the price for the players city want
