      Genuinely thought the only non-debate we had was VVD being comfortably in the very top bracket of defenders in the world.

      Here is a list to choose from:

      VVD, Varane, Umtiti, Koulibaly, GimƩnez, Laporte, Alderweireld, Hummels, Otamendi, Lovren, de Vrij, Chiellini, Godin, Laporte, Hummels, Lovren, de Vrij, Ramos, Gomez, De Ligt, Bonucci, Kompany, Stones, Sanchez, D.Luiz, T.Silva, Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Vertonghen, Skriniar, Akanji and Pique

      For me, VVD along with Varane , Godin & Umtiti are the top tiers.

      Brian Clough said.....ā€Iā€™m not saying Iā€™m the best manager in the world, but Iā€™m in the top 1ā€

      Virgil was top ten when we signed him and heā€™s elevated week on week since.

      The end.

      If youā€™re adding de Ligt, Kimpembe and Sanchez, our Joe should be there.

      Honestly, stop typing.

      Put whatever device it is that you're using and please stop posting.

      WORLD CLASS has to be the most overused term when it comes to players ... People, VVD is Not in the top ten CB in the World and no amount of believing, or positivity will make it so

      Seems that you like Alderweireld as a CB. You named him three times, Otamendi,Ramos, Pique twice  :roll:
      I would hardly put Lovren or Gomez there either, In a way adding Gomez and Lovren to the list kind of makes my point that to many supporters look at to many of the Liverpool players and believe they are World Class, when in fact they are simply out standing players

      No he's not top ten.

      He's top five, maybe top three.

      Not a starting XI in the world that he doesn't walk into.

      Good list, but GimƩnez is on there two times. Only VVD deserves to occupy two spaces.

      It's more or less center backs playing for big clubs in the CL tbh. I am sure I am missing a few others.

      On that list I would put maybe 5 or 6 in the world class bracket.

      Look at it this way...
      How much did we spend on VVD...?? Yet he is not I would wager; in the top ten of World Class Defenders in the world
      My point is There is so much more money being splashed about now in the football world Ā£100 mil for a player is hardly that much anymore...
      How much did we get for Coutinho...?? And you would hardly say that he has reached his full potential yet unlike Modric

      Ronaldo when to Real for Ā£80 mil in 2009.. If that same player was 24 again, now... and at Man Utd and being sold to Real, How much do you thing he would go for now...??

      Again I would wager it would be somewhere in the region of Ā£320-Ā£400 Million if not more

      Havnt been on here for a while thought Iā€™d have a quick browse,see if anything amusing was on offer.
      Well after ten minutes relentless laughter Iā€™m glad to say there is ........this is possibly the funniest thing Iā€™ve ever read on this forum.

      PSG (FRANCE) Bayern (GERMANY), Barca, Real (SPAIN), Juve', AC, INTER, (ITALY) Tell me How many of these top clubs showed and interest in signing when he was playing for Southampton...? even Chelsea was only Linked with him and did not put in an offer which should tell those wearing Liverpool Red specks that he is not quite there yet...

      Hopefully in the future he will be

      Lulz, he was Man City's no.1 choice CB before we quickly acted and signed him first.
