Dont know if any of you guys have seen the press linking us to Ajax's Frenkie de Jong...... watched him vs Germany at the weekend and he ripped them to shreds...... Incredible player. I know there's been chatter than Ajax want 100mln for him & De Ligt and that Barca, City & us are all interested..... Doubt it will happen but if there was a ever a smart long term deal, that fits with the clubs strategy while dealing with a club that actually does bizz with us.... This might be the one to go all out for
Anyone seen more of him than me, limited I know, but was properly impressed
Frenkie de Jong

Scored 9 goals in 80 matches, if you look at Wijnaldum who plays a similar position, scored 82 goals in 335 matches.
If you are looking for goals from midfield, he is not it.
I dont know his stats for assists but midfielders need to score at least 10/15 per season.

Xavi only managed this in 2 seasons out of 14!!!
In his entire barcelona career, he only scored 85 goals in 505 games which would make Wijnaldum a better midfield going by your logic?

Thats not what I am saying, just saying if you need goals, he might not be what you want. I dont know the relevant stats for a midfielder, but if de Jong is someone who controls midfield and sets up the attack and keeps attackers from strolling through then he might be a good fit.
I just think he is the latest popular trend to big up a young player and will never be heard of again when he moves abroad.
I was right about Janssen.

Levy will end up going for Siem, Luuk or Nigel De Jong as they’re cheaper.

Klopp should send VVD and Gini to tap them both up. Can't rest on your laurels, theres still players that could be replaced, Lovren or Matip included.

This is literally exactly what we need
Dele and Eriksen already get 10+ goals each

He'd be a great dembele replacement, hes equally as comfortable and strong on the ball, probably plays more forward passes.

As does Son and Lucas should be more than capable of that too.

Forget te price. Think of how many players in last few years we have wanted but didn't offer enough .....only for their value to rocket.
