Cheers for Wembley Claude, despite the result - being involved in the scenes when we made it 2-2 was a special moment. Hopefully the new man can turn St. Mary's into a fortress.

Agreed. They should be sharing the Olympic Stadium with West Ham.

Back to No1? He's never been England's number 1.

Wow, I completely forgot we were linked with Marcos Rojo that summer. Wasn't it pretty serious as well?

First game of the season: Crystal Palace away. Boxing day: Chelsea at home. 28th December: West Ham away. Easter Weekend: Man Utd away. Last game: Huddersfield at home. FA Cup third round: Wolves away. League Cup second round: Skates at home.

He's by far our most creative player. It would cost us much more than £12m to replace him.

He looks fat.

I would be disappointed if he's still our number 1 next season...

Interesting twist in the Virgil van Dijk transfer story involving Chelsea will be posted here later....#CFC #saintsfc From the same guy who posted that Yahoo article on Twitter.

Virgil, I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.

Why are Liverpool still favourites to sign him on SkyBet? Maybe this deal isn't dead...

Matey breaking the news on Twitter even says he's surprised it's gone through. This tweet is also worrying: "That may not be the case in the next transfer window." In reply to this: A benefit to 'middling' PL clubs now having such wealth: keeping best players unless truly ridiculous bids come in http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4585542/Southampton-demand-70m-Virgil-Van-Dijk.html

Very worried if this goes through.

****ing hell, the Liverpool fans replying to that tweet from VvD. What a bunch of ****ing virgins.

It's been the Dutch one for a couple of days now.

Still there when I look on his profile.

They have history for this http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/fulham/9739320/Liverpools-embarrassing-apology-to-Fulham-sees-Clint-Dempsey-tapping-up-complaint-dropped.html

But but but I thought they done nothing wrong? What a ****ing slimy as **** football club they are. They are right up there with Pompey for me. ****s.

Yep, I remember that. Klopp had a massive smile on his face which was weird considering his side had just lost despite being 2-0 up and cruising at half time.

https://sports.yahoo.com/news/liverpool-will-strongly-reject-claims-illegal-approach-virgil-van-dijk-124457762.html I don't remember that?

It is beginning to look like the club will victimize VvD and this reporting Liverpool to the Premier League is a desperate attempt to show fans that we tried our hardest to keep him.

Neither of them are anywhere near Bertrand's quality. It would be a step backwards.

Can someone ban this victim ****?

Liverpool fans going into full victim mode on social media.
