He seems to have everything in his locker. Struggling to think of a flaw in his game.

The only *slight* thing I would say is where he finds the game so easy, he can be a bit casual at times etc.

Wouldn't worry though, it's improved over time and will carry on doing so.

In his first season you could tell he was used to spl strikers <laugh>

Reactions: Jimmy Squarefoot
Quite a few 'in the knows' saying VVD is pretty much done now (Not random Twitter nobs, but people who've been correct and ahead of the press in the past) so maybe Jimmy was right all a long! He better not be Lovren MkII though.

Where does this leave Gomez? Assuming it'll be Van Dijk and Matip starting, Lovren on the bench and Klavan fourth pick with Sakho sold - Lucas and Gomez for the cups?


Loaned to Huddersfield
 
Gomez will soon replace Klavan as 4th centre back. Gomez is young and improving, Klavan is getting older and slower.
But not this season, Klavan will remain fourth pick. Gomez won't have many opportunities this season other than the odd cup game and like many kids before him, he'll be 23/24 before you know it, will be in danger of moving on having had no chances.
 
Solanke scored the winner in a 1-0 victory for England under 20's against Mexico. Now in the semi finals for the first time in 24 years. Plat Italy next for a place in the final. Shown live on Facebook on Thursday evening if anyone is suffering football withdrawal symptoms now the season is over

I think Lucas and Sakho are both off. Can't see Klavan staying much longer. So I hope Gomez will be the understudy. Lot of potential but understandy rusty since coming back from injury.

What's this kid like? I've heard his name before, as in a talent in the Chav youth teams, but never seen him play (as youth players never get a look in at Chavski :bandit:)

Is he going to be part of the first team squad next season? Replacing Studge, Origi or Ings?
 
Yeah, £50m is a huge sum and we are smashing our transfer record. Plus wages of course.
But Klopp has identified vD as the CB he wants to pair up with Matip and it seems vD wants to come to Liverpool. Exciting times for us.



I'm in no place to question our finances, but we're linked with several transfer which each could smash our transfer records. This could be a very expensive summer. I'm happy getting world class players but hope we don't overextend our finances.

That's for accounts to worry about I guess... Bring on the big guns.

He took his goal well. Think he will be more of a challenge to Origi, assuming Sturridge stays. You never know though if he is given a chance and takes it he may become a first team regular. Still very young

This was the whole point of a negative net spend last season, save to double down once we got CL

I have a great deal of respect for Lucas, but he should only play CB if everyone else is dead. I'd expect to see Klavan and Gomez in the cups, because any other game time would be limited (barring injury, of course)

We received £146m in prize and TV money this past season. That's before sponsorship, tickets, reserves of money already in the club and any other funding. PL clubs are loaded.

There was a story the other day that Sunderland, finishing last, earned more money from TV (domestic football) than Juventus who obviously won the title.

I know it's all about VVD but Salah if he plays anything like in this video might just add that extra dimension to our attack.

I am puzzled who Klopp has spoken to on the striker front as it has been apparent from the onset VVD Keita and Salah are targets...any surprises who he will buy ??

That's what they get for playing in a [HASHTAG]#fake[/HASHTAG] league

Their highest paid club gets about 5 times what the lowest paid earns, in the PL the highest is 1.5 times the lowest

People get bored of watching rich teams mug poor ones

He's been brilliant for Roma and one of the best players in the league. His output is phenomenal for a winger. Him and Mane on the flanks ...

Yes, and if we spend £50m each on three different players it's gone in the summer. (Even without wages being spent).

It's a lot of money.

I trust we know what we're doing though and look forwards to better talent.
