Is currently staging a hunger strike outside Gearbox HQ while trying to hate them to death
The speculation is that something changed in the last day thats totally nuked bridges between VvD and Southampton - but the guy didn't say what it is, he also said that only one club are bidding for him, and given that it seems Liverpool are the most interested club in him, it's most likely them. At the same time VvD's, mate is tweeting photos of Anfield along with a plane emoji
So the speculation is that Southampton said VvD could go to a CL club - and Liverpool qualifying officially confirms that, so he will be more likely to come to Liverpool now.
I'm still not expecting it to happen, but it would definitely be a welcome addition to the team - its a shame that this has turned into such a big mess though, pretty shitty thing to do really
I've been sucked right back in to the dark hole of ITKs.
But nobody knows. Waiting for Tom28 to post someone else I'd guess. But his suggestion is that relationship with saints even more toxic now (corroborated by that Kevin palmer piece who does appear to have genuine sources) and that Liverpool might have quietly bid. Perhaps a verbal agreement about joining a CL club. If there was a normal release clause, can't imagine things would have gotten this messy.
Ah I see. Was kind of hoping this would have died down by now. Saints fans are really gonna hate him now.
Actually if Beefy is reading this, can someone explain exactly why the Saints fans hate Lallana so much? He played for them for 8 years and went from League One to the PL, was sold for very good money (at the time) with no protracted transfer saga that I can recall. There must be something I am missing here.
