Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 He's turned into a real top fella' yer know: Sadly their mentality will never allow it, but low life imbeciles like the Chelsea fans Sat'day singing the oh so hilarious Manc ditty about feeding Scousers, having walked past foodbanks and people collecting to help out that continuing disgrace on our nation in 2017 on their way into the ground; should think on.

FWIW, I'd pay £70 million or more straight up in a heartbeat for van Dijk. Personally rate him as good as any centre-half the PL and I fully believe he'd thrive at being at one of the biggest clubs in the World to go on to be one of the best in the World at the position. I just don't see a flaw in his game. At 6'4 he's an almost unbeatable beast in the air at both ends of the park with the physical frame to match. Rarely if ever do you see him get muscled off the ball. (And he's real strong the tattle to match.). Or done for speed. The big Dutchman is deceptively fast. Real comfortable on the ball with a great range of pass. Still not in his prime at 26. And the leadership qualities he'll bring is something we sorely lack right through the side. The perfect, cultured, rapid ball-playing defender who fits perfectly into what we do under Jürgen and what's expected out of the CH's. Which is why Klopp's not settled for less knowing he only wants to play one place. Hail. Merry Christmas everyone! i don't disagree totally-- I still want VVD here, and another quality CB too for that mater. I just think that a quality keeper covers the mistakes of a defense and negates the oppo's quality up top. Quality CB's are still going to have shots get through, and if the keeper is poor... i asked santa for a new G/CB/CB or G/CB/DM or (if I'm allowed to be honest and greedy) G/CB/CB/DM.

You don't rate Karius mate? Personally, I think he's looking better every game he plays the more confident he gets. You can certainly see the potential of a solid, dominant 'keeper there. Hail.

He has the potential to develop into a solid keeper but he is sti the #2 behind Migs- which doesn't say much for where he is now or how long it'll take him to grow into wearing the "green" for the reds. I don't think Liverpool has time to wait for him to develop and hope they're more ambitious than having just a solid keeper by the time he gets there.

Est.1974 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Season's greeting all.... looking like a January bidding war for VVD. City closing in with the big money deal according to the media here, will be interesting to see how the player reacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Nothing more than click bate from Ducker last night. How he reason's City are favourites to sign 'a third choice centre-half' who doesn't want to sign for them is anyone's guess? van Dijk not in the Southampton 18 again today. Great start to the day. I'm liking those apples. Hail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 What a fantastic footie Christmas. Boss weekend London watching an exhilarating game Arsenal and seeing 12 total goals over 2 days. Then the Mighty Reds go lick Swansea 5 in a very measured, controlled display that came alive second half with some scintillating attacking footie. Topped off with Trent's belter. Can't begin to describe the absolute high of seeing another young Scouser scoring the PL. And his first at home. In front of the Kop at that. It just doesn't get any better. Man, the pride in that connection to one of your own ..... I finally sang Phil's name again today. Up to now, I've just applauded him in support of the team. Down to naturally being wholly P by his lies to jib out of playing that were detrimental to the team and potentially put all the hard graft of last year at stake. But his attitude and commitment has been exemplary this year and he's earnt compansion and forgiveness. We're nothing if not fair in this City and he deserves a second chance. The past is the past. It won't be forgotten. But it's past and he's proved his total commitment to the cause and then some this season, regardless of what his future holds. Phil Coutinho, so long as he's here, is a fully committed L'pool player in everything he does and that's ALL that matters. As to what the future holds, I do think it needs to be a priority again this summer that we go all out to keep him. Hopefully, if/when Barca bag Greizmann, they won't have the financial space for him. And the way Phil's elevated his game to a consistent World class level since his return this season heck knows what the fee on his head will be now? Certainly way more than what was offered the last window. And if he keeps this going and has a boss World Cup we're talking Neymar stupid money. And did someone say we need a proper #9? 16 goal/ 9 assist Bobby Firmino stand up and take a bow. The more he plays and understands the role as a 9 in a Klopp side, the more he looks like the total striking package. Superb game again today. Great to read Southampton insider Kev Palmer as well saying we're the only club thus far to have a significant offer on the table for van Dijk.: https://amp.independent.ie/sport/soccer/premier-league/comment-what-happens-next-in-the-scramble-to-sign-virgil-van-dijk-36437385.html?__twitter_impression=true Everyone knows he's only going one club. As he has been since the end of last season. Just a question of when. He'll be a massive addition January. And there's talk in Germany of Keita kicking up a big fuss to get his move brought forward to January too: https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/895249/Liverpool-transfer-news-Naby-Keita-Leipzig 2018 is fixing to be a heck of a fun, exciting ride as Jürgen continues to build this and progress it on another level. Up the Dragon Slaying Reds! BTW, did I mention I'm still buzzing off Trent's belter ..... Hail. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Liverpool FC player Jon Flanagan charged with assault - Liverpool Echo ****ng braindead idiot! What's he doing out in town to start with? You don't do that the best of times in a two-club City. It's a basic unwritten rule for every L'pool/ Everton player to swerve town. And even more so Chrimbo time when every P up tinsel wearing **** is out. Not that he had any sort of career left here but that's him and well and truly done at L'pool.

dchogs Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 if the VVD deal is for January and Keita is successful at working his way out of Leipzig this winter window, that'll be a nice boost for the back half. hopefully VVD can deal with the inevitable weight that comes with being the most expensive defender on the planet. now, a new top flight keeper and an established DM this summer... god, i'm glad the VVD saga is over... and glad he went red. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
