    A real football player and Celtic's player of the year.

    I watch quite a bit of Celtic, our lass knows Commons, and van Dijk is fearless as well as chipping in with a few goals.

    He's only just signed a new contract so I've no idea why he'd be leaving but I'd be delighted if he came here.

    He's a big lad but really mobile and has a turn of pace.

    Poyet would love to have him here, he likes the ball and isn't scared to take if from the keeper and play football.

    Personally, I doubt we'd have to pay £10 million .... wonder if they want Danny Graham <doh>

    Agreed, have seen him a few times on the local TV Channels and he looks a good player to me like. Has a thunderbolt shot on him, only 23 and 7 goals in 49 for the Hoops !! Not bad for a CB. <ok>

    He's a quality player, would definitely improve us. I thought Southampton were in for him.

    We were heavily linked with him before he went to Celtic. Remember watching videos of him and thought he looked excellent. Done a great job at Celtic too, but certainly not worth anything near £10M. Half of that maybe.

    Can't see that we can compete with Saints, they have shedloads of cash and are probably a better prospect unless Gus can really sell his vision. Btw, I think your username needs changing... unless you're a scouser? <ok>

    He's a fantastic defender mate, better than anything we have at the moment. If Caulker is worth 8m then this lad is worth 10m all day long.

    He is an absolutely outatanding player.

    One of the best in the league.

    That would make Fuchs the odd one out for being a verb :p

    our defence just needs some balls or a chode (or as a posh mate calls it 'Piffins Bridge').
