Virgil van Dijk

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Liverpool's bid reached £70m back in the summer and was considered acceptable to Southampton.

So why they would consider sticking it to Liverpool by agreeing £60m to City just doesn't make any sense, whichever way it is being reported.

Sanchez and JFE then for Jan? :D

They have already signed Keita who will join em next summer. And With Robertson coming to form, they will be our biggest threat next season.

Yeah Keita is a quality signing but he's more of a number 8 rather than defensive midfielder...unless they play Wijnaldum in the defensive midfielde role, but he's more of a box to box midfielder. With Robertson I see him more of a squad player but he's the best they have at the moment because Moreno is wank lol.

Were we willing to pay that money ric?

Clearly not!

I would rather stick with Mangala and Tosin than spending 30 on Evans.

lol you had me there for a minute.

To be close to winning the league they need to sign "Fif teenmore-points", whoever he plays for.

I mean next season, my bad lol

 

[colombia-mcfc]

They must be getting that and some for Coutinho in January.
I quit fancy them to win the league now.
I wonder how much Celtic will get if a sell on clause was in when they sold him !

Maybe they will win the league......... in another 25 years.

Was never on.

City couldn't stiffle the laughter when they were quoted £50m back in the summer.

Very strange links.

Jonny Evans, you watch.

West Brom - 3 games without Evans - 7 points

17 games with Evans - 8 points

Coincidence?.... probably

never thought i'd say this but I would rather JFE at 30 than 75 for VVD.

Johnny Evans is bang average at best. Rather we signed no-one than that mid-table 29 year old ex-rag.

Would have loved van Dijk here whatever the cost, and gutted Liverpool have got him ahead of us, but if the club think that's the best option then that's good enough for me.

Stones and Ota have been great up to now, hopefully no more injuries and Komps can stay fit more often than not (big if, I know). Need to get a tall, fast, reliable centre back around 23-26 age range in summer though.

@Armaan

Lol. I only get really wound up with Liverpool because most of my mates are scousers, the most annoying football fans in the whole world. My WhatsApp group is already going crazy with how VVD “snubbed” city to join the mighty LFC. Fuck em.
