In my opinion, the way Klopp sets up his teams makes defending very challenging for any defender, and the pressure (due to energetic and swift attacking) that they are often placed under makes it difficult for any defensive player to be consistently good.
The approach makes defending hard as well as having poor defenders. Of course, a confident and commanding organiser at the back is something that Liverpool really need, and he will definitely improve the team, but don't expect Van Dijk to show his best form in the playing environment Klopp fosters.
The other factor could be the price tag. He is probably Β£25 - Β£35 million overpriced, and while I personally don't care about that (if a club doesn't endanger themselves financially, they can spend what they like), he may find that the perceived pressure affects his game.
Van Dijk won't improve Liverpool significan

What is a 'membraine'?

It's what you have instead of a brain, Lorraine.

More Humiliation for No Brain
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Failure to understand a rational and well articulated discussion point, by the people on this forum, most certainly does not constitute humiliation for me. The issue for you guys is that you (the slow witted) are essentially too slow witted to even know you are slow witted, and regrettably there is no way I can word an argument that will get around that.

Just playing Devils advocate here, but if that was actually you, how would you know?
Genuine question.

More absolute waffle

And thus my point was shown to be true
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You haven't had a point since the day you joined this site
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Other than to humiliate simpletons such as yourself
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The only person you humiliate is yourself you utter fuΡkwit. Why did it take you eight weeks to think up that awseomely witty response? Had another brainache?
FuΡking moron
