VVD Alternatives

Think we need to accept that we won't be signing VVD this summer thanks to a massive mess up from the club (not the owners, TOOR)!

So who are the legitimate alternatives?

I've barely seen us connected with anybody since the VVD deal collapsed! Who would you like to see?

What was the mess up from the owners?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tapping up the client - admittedly this probably isn't the owners.

Just don't do it! I'd be livid if it was done to Coutinho so why should our club do it? Just go through the proper channels.

It was announced earlier that we would have been cleared of any wrongdoing as we didn't do anything wrong. There was insufficient evidence against us.

A report in The Times says Liverpool will not face any punishment over the alleged tapping up of Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk after a preliminary investigation from the Premier League found there was insufficient evidence to start disciplinary proceedings.

That was posted on BBC sportsday page this morning.

Yes. But they put all evidence forward. PL said not sufficient enough so unless we do something silly, dare I say we got away with it?

IF Van Dijk moves in this window...I will honestly be astounded if it wasn't to us.

I'm reaching the stage where I don't care any more. Is there any benefit in VvD waiting till the opening day of the shooting (i.e. Transfer window) season on 1st July to make any move, such as submitting a written transfer?

According to the Evening Standard, Chelsea are now concentrating their CB efforts on VVD.

He's already refused Chelsea.

If Saints accept their bid, it opens the door for us again.
