Ed I don't get this at all. I was resigned to getting De Vrij or Howedes in as CB this Jan and all VVD posts were knocked back. Now everyone and everywere including the club website is confirming its done. Was you not aware at this stage? Also surely means Couts is off in January to help offset the fee?

{Ed002's Note - The trouble is that you can't see the bigger picture about clubs having a number of targets in the same position. In the Sharkopod I mentioned Van Dijk, De Vrij and Howedes and the youngster Schuurs who decided a move elsewhere was better for him. You decide in your own mind what is happening and then seem shocked. As for Coutinho, I have explained over and over the difficulty of being precise about timings. I am well aware he wants to leave as soon as he can but he may need to be resigned it may not be as soon as he would like. Liverpool would I am sure be reluctant to sell in January but circumstances may be such they do agree a transfer for January or the summer.}

ED02, really appreciate all the info you have given us, I have to agree not once did you say this move was not possible, you indicated it would reflect badly on Liverpool which in fairness it clearly does, tapping up with little consequence? Can’t be good for football.

I just hope VVD becomes a player worthy of this risk and investment.

Happy holidays Ed and thanks.

{Ed002's Note - He certainly has the capability to be a very good player. And enjoy your holiday.}

Cheers for your reply ed. I do use your info to create the picture of what is happening, I have always only listened on here so with what has been said over and over that's the reason I assumed we had moved on.

Thanks again. let's hope he performs.
