The great klopp on utd signing pogba "If you bring one player in for £100m and he gets injured, then it all goes through the chimney.

The day that this is football, I'm not in a job anymore, because the game is about playing together. "

Wonder when he is leaving his job?

Completely ridiculous. I’ve never seen what others see in hi, and if he is worth as much as Lukaku then I’m a banana. I’m delighted Liverpool are spending so much on a CB who I think will be found wanting, the world has gone mad.

hmm, not sure Lukaku is the comparison to use here Banana Man. Give me a choice out of the two of them signing for us and I would pick VVD, and I don't even rate him that highly.

Silly money, but he will definitely strengthen them more than Lukaku 'strengthened' us. We'd have been better sticking Rashford or Martial upfront all season and letting the £75m+ gather 0.025 interest in the bank.

Reasonable point Beastie Boy as I am also not convinced by Lukaku. However his goals scored record is excellent which justifies his fee whereas that sort of money for an, at best CB is ludicrous. I rthink City now they paid a premium due to the tapping up allegation.

Liverpool fan in peace her chaps. The questions really should be is VVD an upgrade on what we have? clearly yes. Is he over priced, yes in the same way that Lukaku is never an £80m pound player but that is the market in the PL away. I am not overjoyed with the price but he has all the attributes to be a great defender (pace, power, height, good two feet etc) and its up to him now and Klopp to help him achieve his potential. Have a great new year all :)

Toe knee you are right. VVD is definitely an upgrade and I think in a better team with better players around him will improve and shine. Yes it's silly money but frankly every season we say the same thing and the financial lunatics still are in charge of the asylum. VVD is a huge signing for you so long as you don't lose Coutinho it will give your team huge confidence.

VVD has been awful this season so far. Any pro who let's his head go like that is not worth it. What happens when Barcelona or whoever come calling.

Clearly better than what they have and yes an upgrade, but he’s not amongst the world’s best. Mind you, neither is Rojo or Smalling.

clearly a very good defender but I think this will have a chain reaction seeing Cortinho go Barcelona which ultimately will weaken pool.

Most overrated defender around VvD, positionally poor, lack of discipline, don’t get the hype and don’t see how he improves Liverpool when they will play all out attack and have him as exposed as the others there at the moment, looked ok in defensive minded Saints teams but culpable for many of their goals conceded.

I’ll agree to disagree WRD. Positionally poor are you talking about Rojo? All jokes aside if you had said lazy I’d ageee. Clearly he’s a good player as Liverpool Chelsea and city wouldn’t have been interested. I think you’ll find we have toned down the all out attack hence our recent improvement defensively. but yes we are still prone to meltdowns a la Arsenal.

Ah well Welsh.

At least you have half the player that is Lindelof, for a fee of €38m plus a further €10 Euro in add ons, and a salary only united could pay.

Don’t worry, I won’t mention Lukaku. It’s Christmas 😂😂.

Is he going to end up a Lovren, or a Lallana, tho? Southampton always seem to me to be one of those sides, where the team is greater than the sum of its parts.

It’s quite clear Liverpool could save themselves millions if they just hired all of Southampton’s scouting department.

It's funny isn't it drogie how every player utd buy must be quoted in Euros while Liverpool players get quoted in pounds.

What about our Southampton players, I wouldn't mind mane, vvd, lalana in our squad. Even Clyne is a better full back than Darmian.
