Virgil van Dijk

That's 50% more - holy moly.

Said this before, I just don't see him being worth that much. It's insane money.

People said the same thing about us and Walker (including Blue Mooners),so maybe it aint as insane as people say,if he lasts a say 4-5 years for them.
I personally agree with you,I to don`t see him being a £75M player but who knows,as Jimmy Greaves always said "its a fanny ol` game".

Second best team in the league?

Do people type these things with a straight face?

It's ridiculous ain't it mate, have they not been watching United this season? ;-)

75 mill, holy shit, he's bang average if you ask me.

He looks anything but bang average to me and Liverpool recently when they have spent big have got decent players. (Firminho, Mane, Salah ) Still it's a hell of a lot of money.

I want to see at least 5 articles in the next few days about how 75m on a defender is extortionate and ruining the game - as per the ones when we paid 50m for walker..

Will we fucks. If we publicly said we were ending our pursuit of a player after getting caught illegally tapping him up but then went ahead and signed him after we'd get fucking slaughtered by the press. It's the double standards that piss me off.

Quality player but £75m is like fucking WOW!!!

It’s a lot of money, but fair play to them for finally landing their main target. It’ll be interesting to see who we go for now.

Only if they`ve had botox.

Better to save the big money for those very few players worth it.
