does not mean they are ready to sell VVD. But for the amount of money involve they are unlikely to say no because their pride is intact.
So it'll be a VvD and Gomez CB partnership next year then? Or throw in Matip in a back 3? Lovren back up, let Klavan go if his contract is up and buy another if it's a back 3 or not if it's a pairing. Just hope that we have a plan B this time
Lovren needs to go full stop - not good enough for the bench. I’m hoping we move for Gimenez as well as it’s a no brainer given the fee.
Moving for him and actually getting him are two totally different things! There will be more attractive, better paying clubs in the queue ahead of us unfortunately. Lovren is a liability, I agree......but who's going to pay his high wages having seen that he's the worlds #1 bottler? Unfirtunely, he's on the books for the foreseeable
Mauricio Pellegrino admitted that he can’t guarantee that Virgil van Dijk will remain at Southampton amid talk of Liverpool FC renewing their interest in the defender. .Mauricio Pellegrino admitted that he can’t guarantee that Virgil van Dijk will remain at Southampton amid talk of Liverpool FC renewing their interest in the defender
Philippe Coutinho is the priority of the Paris Saint-Germain for next summer. Thiago Silva tries to convince his teammate in the Seleção to join Paris, but the Liverpool player is more attracted to Barcelona. And PSG will first have to sell. #Mercato @telefoot_TF1
neymar has had to move out if paris and get serious security in. I reckon as much as we would.like a bidding war there's only one place he should go.
No surprise Saints would be happy to accept £70m for VVD. No defender was worth it and they really should have taken the money and re-invested in some creativity and strikers in hindsight. Can't see anyone going in with £70m again in Jan/Summer, probably be £50m tops.
But but they "showed" us didn't they? Definitely worth the £30m and a season struggling for midtable that it will cost them, don't you agree @The Liebherr Legacy ?
yup. I agree. cut own throats. 70mil for an injured player rheyve had to nurse back for some ego trip at board level while they appoint a guy who looks like he's not working out on the basis that the guy in job wasn't popular enough despite getting to a final and finishing 8th in league which is higher than they deserve. what happened? 14 and sliding downwards and the player the ego trip was over has maybe halved in value. hmmmm....
Midtable? You're optimistic for us astro! We'll be in the bottom 3 by Christmas. Nice to know you care though
We had the money to invest anyway, board thought they could get away with it on the cheap for the second Summer in a row... and it's backfiring.
I don't understand why purple think transfer fees will be lower in the forthcoming windows. Yeah, they wete very high in the summer but fees don't tend to decrease, only ever increase
