zekinjo 449 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I wouldn't say he implicates only for LFC. We were interested in him 2 months ago but didn't want to pay £70m. Interesting stuff you could read between the lines last couple of weeks one and of them we never left the table actually just waiting for the right moment and them to cut the price. I would be more scared if he goes to City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldportblue 547 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 But the German (Klopp) is well equipped with defenders, with Dejan Lovren, Joel Matip, Ragnar Klavan and Joe Gomez all fit for the season. He said: “We have four centre-backs. I don’t think we need more. “Just at the moment I’m fine. The transfer market is open until the 31st of August. “We cannot force things and we would never get a centre-back just because someone is available." hopefully we can get him, he is bordering on WC imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldportblue 547 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 "I would like Southampton to consider the interest in me from top clubs should it still exist." "I want to play European football again and challenge for major honours. I am incredibly ambitious." " I want to achieve as much as I can to fulfil my potential in what is a very short career as a professional footballer." -Virgil van Dijk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 The moment he handed his transfer request the fee went from £60m to £40m. We're in good positie for the negotiations and it seems like other top teams are not thinking about signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Sky sources understand Southampton’sposition remains unchanged despite Virgil van Dijk’s transfer request. The Saints do not want to sell the Netherlands international. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our CB's were very good yesterday, tbf. Both Luiz and Cahill performed well. It's what's ahead of them and their flanks that were subpar. Do we need VVD? No. But he'd certainly improve our team.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 2 minutes ago, the wes said: Did you watch the game on Sunday are defending was poor against arsenal?? Our defending was alright. Geigen the lack of protection from Alonso and Fabregas we limited them to a handful of chances.also i one defender more does not mean our defending will improve. Defending is all about team movement and mechanisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,187 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Spend the cash elsewhere, and if this is the amount (50M) then go and break the bank and fetch Dembele here from Dortmund, kids absolute different gravy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiclasCFC 2,582 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 26 minutes ago, Henrique said: I don't think we need a CB. I both agree and disagree. The main priority should be two wings back (both for Competition and Depth) but if we can Sign Van Dijk its basically like signing a RWB since Azpi will be moved there. So it would be RWB: Azpi, Moses. CB: Luiz, Cahill, Van Dijk, Rudiger, Christensen, (Azpi). LWB: Alonso, new signing. I would be pretty happy with that setup tbh.

Think it's been reported that Dortmund wouldn't even accept the 100m Barca are offering. No chance we'd get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
