      He has previously said while injured that he wants to get back fit to play in the Euro's.

      I'm sure he'd love to....but the doctor's will have their say. A destroyed knee isn't something you typically come back from in 6-8 months. Especially when you are going to be putting an extreme amount of pressure on it when you do get back to playing. I'd be surprised if he's doing any real playing before August.

      The odds are he'll be rushed back for the Euros.

      Show us them then.

      I don't like the multiple references to "18 months for the club".

      Suggests he's still on his original 5-year contract from when we signed him in Dec 2017.

      FSG really need to get an extension sorted or the natives will not be happy.

      Once they are sure the knee is perfectly fine, he'll get his contract.

      Will he though?

      And will he sign it?

      Sounds distinctly like he's not expecting to be here any longer than the next 18 months.

      I thought he'd see his career out with us but if we're gonna be tight arses with contracts once players get to 30 there are plenty of clubs like Inter Milan who will shower Virgil with cash to get him to go there and play in his flip-flops till he's 40

      Almost like a new signing, after being on the side line for so long.

      Are you serious?!?!
      His absence and the team's parallel loss of form illustrates how vital Virgil is to our success, do you think Jürgen has had some kind brain cell outage?

      If for some insane reason there was a contractual issue with the player whose only desire is to play under Klopp for LFC,  the cause of such a disagreement would only  be created in the boardroom.
      Such an occurrence and its ramifications could only culminate in the resignation of the manager, your comment hold this up as an eventuality!

      Only somebody with the most negative reasoning would present such a detrimental play-out of VVD's optimistic recovery update .

      Certainly need him back to organise the back four, which has been badly missed, since his injury.
