It's only wierd, unknown twitter warriors that have mentioned VVD wanting to leave but yeah, he deserves another contract. End of the day you have to pay too dollar wages to top dollar players. Martin Edward's will just make VVD understand that he should sign for another 4 years on £25 a week Edited January 30, 2020 by LFCMadLad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the league in this format started glory hunters go as: Manchetser United - Chelsea - Manchester City - Liverpool. You do get a lot of casual fans that just follow the team that's playing the most interesting football at the time. It's basically why so many follow Barcelona 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly has to be far upwards of the expendable Coutinho. I'd be surprised if it were true anyway, only real benefit of a move to Juventus is living in Italy, very much a sideways step in terms of club. I agree that would be the only kind of money we'd consider selling for. But noone would be able to pay it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as far as I know we still do it now. The difference now is that big Virg gets his head on literally everything whether it's his zone or not I mean, I was happy when we signed VVD but fuck me, little did we all know at the time that we had just signed one of the best CB's of all time. I read the comments on here the other day and some were saying we wouldn't get £200m for him and they were probably right, because no club can afford £200m for a defender, especially Juventus who would probably offer to loan him for 3 years with the option to buy for £6m in 2025. But in terms of if hes worth it then yes, every single penny. VVD doesn't just give you the best CB in the world, he also improves whoever is playing beside him by about 60%. What a player. Yeah have to agree with everything you've said. He doesn't just add solidity in the center of the defense but is commanding, gets on your back when you're slacking and doesn't look like hes phased when someone tries to get the better of him (quite the opposite ends up happening most times haha). I love the guy to bits and I think his partnership with Joe is the better one that his with Matip. You've got speed coupled with confidence in that pairing and it absolutely shuts down a lot of attacks very fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
