Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

could you not say that the two dtuch men are similar and that having both might not be optium.

that said i'd love to see vvd feed to go do a kompany

 

De Ligt would develop alongside his international team-mate. Van Dijk improved Dejan Lovren , so obviously he would improve a world class talent like De Ligt.

Anyway with Matip and Gomez there would be the luxury to slowly integrate De Ligt. He wouldn't be thrown in at the deep end. He would be bedded in just like Fabinho was.

 

Then we should be paying Van Dijk more not De Ligt more

 

to be honest thats really cheap when you will see maguire go for 90 or 100 this summer


mad innit

 

go on i give in ?

 

doubt he will go for more than £75m though i think may even be lower than that.

 

sorry mate. that should be van dyke freed to range forward and smash 30 yard piledrivers cos he is more than capable.

 

city are in for him.

 

De Ligt off to Barcelona then. Ends that pointless rumour

 

good.

i hope his agent has cleaned up using our name without our permission.
I wonder how many extra million he got paid to ensure we were not the final destination... after leaking that himself.

 

i just had this image of VVD snacking on a pan fried Kompany

 

hey whatever you're into hannibal.

 

Signing De Ligt would allow us to play three at the back (with VVD & Gomez) allowing TAA and Robbo to be even more attacking

 

nah....

that just takes a CM out of the middle and makes us less attacking plus he's apparently gone to barca.

 

I can't see Klopp going with a back 3 on a regular basis that's with De Ligt or anyone. Whilst it does work offensively, it's far too easy to attack. All teams have to do against back 3's is get down the sides and play through the lines. That is why we had so much success against Wolves and Watford. Klopp used natural width and had Hendo and Gini playing narrow running beyond their centre backs. The natural width came from crosses from Robbo and Trent.

 

Can't stand a back three mate, was just throwing it out there

 

I hate it myself and that's why I debated it.

 

I disliked playing in a back three more than I dislike watching a team play it though, horrible system

 

It's "ok"... if you play a genuine 4 in midfield like conte did.. bit only ok.

When you've 433 it is so.much more flexible, you can flood midfield if you want. push lots on. defend deep etc.

the main issue though... centre half are centre halves and absolutely hate being in wide areas for a reason. they get run past.

 

VVD and Gomez can both play so you'd like to think they would both step forward. No idea on De Ligt.
