Quite frankly, after his behaviour I would be glad to see the back of VVD the man ( come on, he’s not a hunk is he?), problem is I’d quite like to keep VVD the football player, My only stipulation is if we let him go it is NOT to Liverpool

Very suprised if he hands in a transfer request
There is still hope that he will give us one more season or at least until Jan. transfer window…when some clubs will be crying out for his signature 
By then Stephens, Yoshida,Bednarek,Cook, Klarer, Jones, O’Driscoll or even Wood will turn into world class CB…hopefully somebody will step up if he goes. 
Hopefully VVD stays a true pro and no silly buggggers
Otherwise he will be pushing me for sotonians tart of the year 
mind you Goatboy is closing in on my position top of the leader board

If he really wants to do one then I’d rather he put in a request immediately. Would love to see a rule making it compulsary the second an agent or player starts pushing or making noises.
Oops.
Oops? What Oops?
I think as loyal supporters of our grand old Football Club we should get Redslo to pursue this tapping-up issue through the highest courts in the land. I think it’s not only the club itself that suffers in such matters but WE the supporter who contribute our hard-earned in pursuit of Strong & Stable representation.

Yes and claim extra compensation because so many Saints fans didn’t Renew their ST’s…

How fucking Mickey Mouse can you get … pitch invasion by Liverpool fans after beating Tranmere in a pre match friendly 
I’m sure they’ll call it passion … but what a fucking sad state of affairs. Right up there with their pathetic efforts of the players after getting a home draw against the mighty WBA.
Plastic gobshites.

These are hardly the comments of someone who has dropped their interest in the player. Fucking disgraceful.
The question has seemingly come from their own TV channel as well! Clearly the agenda to unsettle him is rumbling on.
Saints really need to stick to their guns and refuse to deal with them no matter what the player does or says in the coming weeks.

What is the point of having rules on player transfers if infingements aren’t rigourously enforced…this whole issue is a fuckin’ farce. Especially as the LFC have a suspended sentence hanging over them to stop just such repeat offending.
Liverpool have made a mockery of the whole process. Despite their well publicised withdrawal from the persuit of VVD their official TV Channel has been pumping out VVD transfer propaganda from a steady stream of ex-players from day 1.
Saying it’s what VVD wants isn’t a vindication of tapping-up as some pundits and the whole of LFC fanbase think. You can’t claim the moral high-ground whilst standing in the gutter.

I understood that we had all the evidence to prove the tapping up but held back in perusing it if Liverpool ended their interest.
If it were perused to the bitter end it would mean punishment for Liverpool,Klopp,VVD and his agent.From the way Liverpool are continuing to unsettle VVD there must come a time when enough is enough.
I seem to remember that last year after he had signed his 6 year deal VVD changed his agent to the same one who was behind Koemans move to Everton. As I remember Koemans agent when he was negotiating his new deal with us was happy with it and turned down Evertons double your money offer.Koeman then sacked him and took on the greedy bastard who now represents VVD. Can’t help feeling he is the one behind all this.

The number of times they have almost got a snap of VVD

It’s a lookalike. That’s why he’s obscured. Obvious sign that he’s going. If he was staying then all the pic’s would have him clear and central with the other players looking at him with love and awe.
Maybe VVD has got some Image Rights clause in his contract … and the club are making sure they don’t have to pay out any dosh to him

So why the fuckety is VVD so seemingly anti-going literally anywhere but Liverpool? I’ve come to terms with him leaving but God fucking damn it City should be sucking both us and indeed him off to sign him with the absolute shower they have at the back.
By all means let him go if the price is right but ffs, not Liverpool again.

Decision this week according to a taxi driver.
Club not in discussions with anyone to sell anyone, intend to start the season with the full squad available, but “it sounds like” that depends on some hard talking with VVD during the week. He would certainly need to put in a transfer request and club won’t budge on clearing 50mil AFTER any add ons due to Celtic.
Not insisting it is Gospel, it’s a non steveweb rumour is all.

Taxi driver? Pah! I would give the rumour far more credit if it came from his girlfriend’s friends hairdresser.
We dont have to sell him, even if he hands in a transfer request. I dont understand why any “hard talking” has to be done. Just tell his agent that he isnt going anywhere for at least a season. Job done. All this it will take north of x amount to get him is bollocks. You are either are happy to sell or you are not.

There is one person I feel sorry for in all of this.
Saint Mike on Twitter.
He is so gonna kop it when VVD actually does leave - and imho no matter what is being said I haven’t seen any indication he will knuckle down and stay and imho we will have learnt from the Jose situation last year not to keep a bad attitude or integrity issue around the place.
He’s gone, don’t want him to be and pretty sure that it will be made BLOODY clear to him this week that Liverpool won’t be allowed to sign him by us OR by the EPL no matter what temper tantrums he pulls
