    You put some work into that. I'll break it down. You don't think he's worth that money. But the bottom line for us is we don't give a flying Scotsman because we made plenty of profit from the big man.

    How I feel as well..

    Is an element of the more of our prize assets do well down there.....the stronger the position we're in to fleece them though..

    Just think it's crazy how teams are now spending over 50m on players who haven't convincingly proved themselves at the 'top level'. Completely agree with you, the money that we received was a fantastic piece of business at the time. Now he's in the liverpool squad, his defending is getting exposed almost every game something that only happened to him up here in European competition. All the best to him anyway, who would've thought a player we signed 5 years is now worth 75m!

    Big Virg was getting a glowing reveiw for his performance against Southampton there..

    Best Celtic center back of my life time. I still cant believe a lot of our fans thought he was “overrated” and that Denayer was a better center back.

    For me, both VVD and Wanyama were a different class and I think, to compare a another player in terms of ability, Dembele isnt near that.

    Been named the new Netherlands captain, good honor for him but he'll be captaining a * team.

    As bad as they are and have been for year's, you could still get a half decent couple of sides out of them..

    Cillessen

    De Ligt
    Van Dijk
    De Vrij

    Hateboer
    Wijnaldum
    Strootman
    Van Aanholt

    Kluivert
    Locadia
    Depay

    Or

    Zoet

    Rekik
    Bruma
    Ake

    Tete
    Propper
    Vilhuena
    Blind

    Berghuis
    Dost
    Promes

    No doubt some other's that are better or up and comings I don't know..

    Aye they are not too bad but massive lack of quality in centre-mid and up front. Van Dijk would probably be their best centre-mid and striker as well :56:

    Aye you associate the Dutch with good attacking player's. They are struggling there but seem to have an array of defensive options.....particularly centre halves..

    Dost is a cart horse up top..

    See details of his contract were leaked.

    £6million signing bonus
    £125,000 a week
    £4million bonus if he reaches 150 appearaces
    £20k per goal
    £20k per assist
    £5million loyalty bonus
    £375k if they reach 18 clean sheets, £500k if they reach 20, £750k if they reach 22.

    If he sees out his Liverpool contract on average he will have earned about £10million a year although he'll probably sign another one soon on even better terms given his start.
