      35m is enough for a goalkeeper. VVD is probably worth 75m. It's his set pieces we are paying for as well. He can take pennos or free kicks.

      Nah, let's be honest here. We're paying for the fact we pissed them off so bad in the summer.

      But he's signed so it doesn't matter now.

      First day back at work, catching up on some podcasts today, that I missed over the holidays, 2 out of three said VvD was definitely Man City bound. That proved not to be the case then.

      Goretzka is out of contract at the end of the season but has plenty of suitors, would be competition for his signature.

      Think that one will depend a lot on Emre Cans situation. Anyone think the lad is going to sign or is he off in the summer?

      Most definitely not a Klopp fit? Klopp helped make him the player that manure bought! Hardly out of his comfort zone in this league, he's just out of his comfort zone being asked to play Bourinho football. Look at De Bruyne, Salah - both players that played under Mourinho at Chelsea and everyone deemed Premier League flops.

      Not saying I agree with making him a premium target, but he's certainly a lot better player than what is being utilised with that mob.

      Butland an interesting one, I really rate him but seen a lot of people mention his stats not being much better than Mignolet. Maybe I'm missing something there. Either way though, don't think Stoke will let him go in January - probably one for the summer.

      Never seen Goretzka play but apparently he's meant to be a top player.

      I'd be surprised if he stayed at this point mate. But you never know.

      For me, I'd rather have him than some others in the squad but at the same time I don't think he's a TOP,  TOP player. Different situations and all that, though.

      I have a few Mexican friends whom I've watched Mexico matches with and they all love Lozano, which is why I started paying attention to him, whilst still with Pachuca. At the time I saw him mostly on the left wing, cutting inside, but he does seem to be the kind of versatile attacking player that could adapt to other positions. I haven't seen him play for PSV but in the past couple of seasons he seems to have started scoring more often as well, and mature as a player. Looks like a star in the making.

      I love Bailey, he's been better than Brandt (previously linked to us) in the matches I've seen, very quick and with good delivery from wide positions. From Gladbach I'm a fan of Vincenzo Grifo, he's not so young (24 or 25 I think) and he missed the whole of the start of the season due to injury, so he hasn't been playing much, but he's a very technical player that if given chances will definitely score and assist quite a few. I think he'd have made a better signing for the likes of Everton than paying ridiculous money for Sigurdsson. BMG paid less than 10m euros for him.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JX1TWvaVrg

      Can't say I had ever heard of Lozano before he arrived at PSV and really only started watching him a few times after I saw him against Belgium. Cracking player, on the left, on the right, through the middle, he doesn't care. He reminds me a bit of Suarez when he was at Ajax (not saying he'll be as good, just his style).

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tzl1fz6qqD4

      Goals at 3:38 and 4:30. I can totally see him play a role similar to Firmino's.

      Yeah Bailey is brilliant, he has a sweet left foot! Never heard of Grifo I have to admit. I really only watch them occasionally for Hazard.

      I'd be happy with Goretzka. No thanks to Butland for me. Think he's vastly overrated.

      Goretzka seems to be a good idea given Can is set to leave... It's a pity though.


      My only concern is with whom do we replace Coutinho. Lallana can do the job; he's not as good but Lallana in a front 3 or in midfield is a very good player and is often world class. Last season he was superb. But we still need to think about replacing Coutinho - Kovacic would be a great player to have, yes he's a CM but he's very creative.


      Ideally we would get a player in the deal for Coutinho.

      I am just  hoping  that we don't  sell Couthino  to balance  the books. Southampton  had us in the corner  by our own making  and we pay a huge  price.

      I really don't know about Goretzka, he is pretty  much another box-boxer/attacking midfielder , isn't he? Are we really gonna go into another season without a defense minded midfielder that's good on the ball and a big f**k you to the defence and game management?

      As for Butland, not anymore, he really is overrated and buying from a premier league club, he'd probably cost 100m!

      Saw him in the Confederations Cup. Looked very good IMO. Would be pleased to see him join. We don't seem to do DMs so it doesn't really matter.

      Based on the fact that he has rarely done it before despite always having an extra CB on the bench? Honestly where do you guys get these theories from?
      BTW I think it would actually  be a good idea but its Not Klopp's style, Kloppo don't do defence.
