      Sakho is solid, faster and stronger than Matip who I've no doubt will get better and better. I'd have no qualms about either partnering VD.

      I've never even heard of him.

      Gotta try and find the time to watch more football.

      Well not know if they're prepared to sell until we make them an offer that appeals to them.

      We'll submit an offer if they indicate they are willing to sell, which I imagine will happen if VVD rules himself out of contention for their opening game (we're treading thin water on this one). If it was as simple as submitting a bid, the bid like Keita would have been submitted for one of the managers preferred targets.

      And what would Klopp have to sacrifice?

      Buying a player he doesn't want as a stop gap, when the player he wants has indicated he wants to join and is trying to force his clubs hand.

      I would be okay with that. How would y'all feel?

      I thought he should have made up with Sakho a long time ago to be fair. But if he's going to use him as a plan "B" to VVD, don't you think it would have been a good idea to have him actually training with the first team?

      Submit a bid, if they accept, great, if they reject unequivocally then he's not for sale!

      You believe Klopp can't find another CB player that will improve or team? Waiting until next season is nonsense. There's no guarantee he will be sold then either.

      We can't we apologised very publicly and said we ended our interest, its up to VVD to force a move, saints to indicate that they are willing to sell.

      If it was as simple as submitting a bid, we would have.

      I'm not saying that, just the impression coming out of the club is its VVD or no one.

      What I think is irrelevant, it won't change anything.

      I believe that once it became apparent that the price would be £50-£70 million we ended our interest!

      Nobody else is coming. Milner and Moreno are like two new signings so don't put yourself through unnecessary anguish - just hope we don't get any more long term injuries.

      Believe what you want mate that's your choice, as I believe VVD will be a LFC player by the time the window closes.

      Is he going to hand a transfer request in? I'm led to believe that's the only way it will happen!

      I've no idea, but he ruled himself out of the early preseason games, Pellegrino offered him an olive branch to be reintroduced to the squad and play a part in the remaining preseason games, again he ruled himself out, now if he rules himself unavailable for their season opening game, he'll be sold imo, may take a transfer request, it may not.

      £60/£70m to reinvest in your squad or a player who's refusing to play for you during your league campaign ?

      Southampton maybe stubborn, maybe even hoped VVD would come round and be open to staying, but if VVD continues to dig his heels in, I don't they'll be stupid in detriment to their own season/aspirations.

      If we leave it to the last minute Southampton won't have time to replace him. There's no reason why we haven't put a bid in already.

      Being reported to the FA for tapping up, subsequent very public apology dropping our interest is good enough reason.

      We won't reignite our interest 'publicly' unless Southampton indicate they want to sell, VVD hands in a transfer request or another club has a bid accepted.

      He'll be ours by the end of the window imo, we just have to be patient and I believe that's what Klopp is doing (being patient)

      I ain't gonna panic. A big part of it is that I feel FSG really are letting Klopp run this. Just saw Wenger say that more lads will leave before window closes, hope one of them is Ox to us.

      We get Ox
      We get VVD
      Couthino stays
      We win the league

      I'm of a similar mindset Daz. I still think we'll get VvD, everything I've heard since I passed on what my mate said appears to back that up. VvD is pushing matters as much as he can without an official request but if it gets that far I believe he will.

      Saints will also be well aware that they have a player that is training alone, could well refuse to play, while they're getting tonked in pre-season. While I have sympathy with them and with the boot being on the other foot when it comes to Coutinho we're demanding the opposite I just feel the deal will get done.

      Thankfully when it comes to Coutinho I don't believe he's the rebellious type and has friends here such as Firmino and Moreno who will pull him into line once the season kicks off. Now I don't know the Saints dressing room dynamic but it's clear now that VvD will do all he can to manufacture the move and it's crucial for us that he does.

      Whisper it quietly mate but if Klopp was in contact pre and post Blackpool with VVD, he's probably still in contact now and will have a real good idea of VVD and his agents intentions.

      I doubt Klopp is in contact with him. If Van Dijk hands in a transfer request to forfit bonus I think if Liverpool offer 68m through the right channels deal is done and dusted. It is upto Van Dijk what is most important to him, money or big nights as Anfield.

      Southampton have already brought in a new CB they have 3 others they have kept or brought up form their U23's

      They are a selling club, they aren't going to take the money and buy a top rated CB.


      Jan Bednarek has arrived at St Mary’s from Lech Posnan, the 21-year-old signing a five-year deal, while Jack Stephens, 23, has agreed a new five-year contract with the club.

      We're we up to so far:

      Klopp is toeing the company line.

      Fsg are still stingy cu*ts.

      We're still monitoring the situation of every active player in the transfer market.

      ........And every player back from injury before or on August 31st will be like a new signing

      P.s Coutinho is still not for sale!! Nudge nudge, wink wink

      That about cover all our newsworthy stuff at the moment.
