But that's the point z. The options aren't out there that are significantly better than what they have to what we've come up with between us that is realistically available.

Or else you're just buying bodies there that may be a slight upgrade. But are liable to have the same bad games in them. You may as well give a real promising talent like Gomez his head at CB if that's your answer.

Aside from the fact they've been certain he'd sign for nobody else, I can't fault them for not settling when there's nobody else moved that would have significantly improved the position and taken the team on the next level.

Like I said earlier this month, if we dont sign VVD it could be a blessing in disguise. It gives Gomez a chance at CB as the season progresses.
 
Origi gone out to Wolfsburg for the year.

No option to buy. Wolfsburg picking up the tab for all his wages AND paying £6 million as a loan fee for the privilege.

Hopefully, he regains his confidence the Bundesliga to go with his ability. Well done Dom Solanke.

*Edit* And there's a recall clause if needed. Just about the perfect loan. Well done Edwards. Smashed that one.

Howedes. Id VVD was the template that's who I would have targeted

Savic, Manolas, Even Mustafi (who I cannot believe is not favoured at Arsenal)
 
All down to personal opinion, but I don't think any of those significantly upgrades on what they have for the cost of getting them in and paying the contract. You may as well stick with what you have and wait.

Outside of Howdes who was going dirt cheap for the short-term. Wouldn't of minded him at all.

But as regards van Dijk quality that they're looking at, there's really limited options that have moved this summer.

Savic and Manolas are huge upgrades. Mustafi too, though not as high as the others. Any of them would form a formidable partnership with Matip, all of them significantly better than Lovren. All could have been bought for around 40m even in this mental market
 
Well, as much as I don't want to see Lovren starting (and even at that he's not half as bad as many make out), I'd disagree but hey, I'm still dead confident they'll have van Dijk before today's out so yer know.

Long time in this window to get through yet.
 
Liverpool are 10/1 for the league??
Those odds are absolutely brilliant. I'm having a few quid on that.

*prepares for the backlash.
 
What happened Scouse? I thought Van Dijk would surely be at Anfield by now? ;)

Personally just waiting for van Dijk to be announced. But I've been patiently waiting for that since before the last game of last season so yer know. :).

If only I had a penny for every time I read this (or similar) from Scouse this summer :P
