Now I do agree with you about asking why one would want to deal with Levy. Another one to add to Soldado is Fazio. Bought for £9m sold for £2.5m. N'Jie signer for £13m sold for half that. But generally, they do seem to sell pretty well, as in fairness, do Liverpool.

Guess that's what happens when you are given a brand new stadium without having to pay for any of its running costs.

A nice Dutch duo at CB.

You know what, it has been going on for so long, and the desperation is mounting by the day, that I have moved on from finding the disrespect rather boring, to finding it all rather amusing now. Like most on here, the ideal situation would be Cutinho going, vD not going to them with the cherry on top being Can going off to Italy. Maybe if Ronaldo is banned for 12 games, Real might have a bid for Mané. Now that would be really funny as ferk.

Do them. Then we can have the Mail and the Express as being never too friendly towards Saints.

I love this. We should just roll over to let Liverpool tickle our tummies and be grateful for it. Now Liverpool refusing £72m and £90m for Cutinho is just them being a little greedy.

I would have thought that the point is very simple. You wrote "Beggars belief that we are offering so much money". How do you know what money is being offered and how much is it that you feel it necessary to state that it beggars belief? Me thinks you are going on what the papers have said that Spurs are trying to get. That may be true, it may not be, but you seem awfully certain, so was just wondering how certain you were.

Klopp vs Saints.... P7, W1, D3, L3 (and that win was the EFL 6-1 drubbing)

The problem is with all these players who bunk off to the big teams and find themselves sitting on their hands, is that they sign for wages that we cannot afford. The answer to your question, if we had to match his current wages, would be "no". You hear players going on about playing for love not money, but how many take a large wage cut to carry on playing (except when they reach the end of their career) rather than warm the bench and count their pennies?

I don't watch BT Sport... Are they LFC sycophants as well?

Rather than criticising the board, maybe you can tell us what we are offering and how you know that to be the true figure, as opposed worthless supposition based on hearsay?

The Star had a headline yesterday that the deal will be done soon because....... Shay Given thought it would be good and that vD is desperate to sign. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/637043/Virgil-van-Dijk-Southampton-Liverpool-transfer-news-gossip In all this, it shows how pathetic the press really are. Their raison d'etre is to report news, not create it.

Not that it is important, but there really is no contradiction.

It does to me. If you can tell me what you have trouble with, then I can explain for you.

I really do think that some of our supporters are way over valuing v Dijk. While I admit that there is a paucity of good CBs and vD is hugely in demand, just because one or two transfers are ridiculously over valued (aren't they all?) doesn't mean that they all will be.

It is unlike the club to release who they are after, so maybe Wimmer is a stalking horse.

I'm sure he will be happier like that, as he is closer to his family.

Why do you think JWP would actually manage to hit the target though? If the free kick down the left in the first half was anything to go by, he didn't even manage to get it into the box to one of our players.

Yes, but who decided to change agent? He's a big boy, or does he need his hand held all his life?

No probs. Will be interesting to hear if it works. Here's a link to SetupVPN (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/setupvpn-lifetime-free-vp/oofgbpoabipfcfjapgnbbjjaenockbdp) although I am sure that there are others that work just as well. I guess between that and Opera, you might be OK.

Wessex, although I said that I used Opera, I seem to have gravitated back to Chrome (got annoyed with Opera and Flash not working very well) but I have installed SetupVPN which allows you to choose which country you appear to be in. You can chose one of 20 countries to be in, including the UK, which might well (or even should) let you watch Sky Go/iPlayer. That is unless they block network sharers. SetupVPN seems to work pretty well with the only annoying thing being that it won't automatically start.

TBH Woolwich's isn't much better.

I can't help but feel that the best course of action would be to try and rehabilitate the CB that they already have in Sakho. After all they are trying to sell him for £30m so he must be good

Whatever you think of Jordan as a person, he is actually pretty intelligent. As has been pointed out, the problem with ex pros is by and large they aren't the sharpest tools in the box. Can't you remember players taking the mick out of Le Saux because he read a broadsheet rather than the Beano? That sort of sums it up.

I read that Arsenal are preparing a £300k a week deal for Sanchez. Not sure LFC are going to match that.
