Mind you, I can see why he would want to join Liverpool.
For one thing, it's a chance to play with some of the other ex-Saints, like Mane and Lallana, who also went on to better things.
In Klopp they have a wonderful, charismatic manager, who any player would be delighted to play for.
The team themselves play extremely attractive, attacking football, which makes them one of the best sides in Europe to watch.
They're also the 5-times Champions of Europe, one of the biggest clubs in world football and have a fanbase that the Saints can only dream of.
As for Southampton, they're a midtable, nothing club, who have more chance of going down like their famous Titantic, than of actually winning any silverware.
So of course Virgil would much rather play for Liverpool.
Ps Thanks for Mane and Lallana (less so for Lovren, Clyne and Lambert, but you can't win 'em all) xx
