I think a big factor in the contacts is international duty, and that’s especially salient for Salah, who also has AFCON next year.
Both Virgil and Mo are at the age where retirement from national team duty can extend a career, and both seem to want to play on.
I can see the Club saying goodbye to both of them if they can’t have more control on their playing time.
Personally VVD is the one I really don’t want to lose. I do hope we get some confirmation sooner rather than later.
Wtf is going on with Virgil and Salah contracts? We know the owners dont like spending money so we are not going to be buying replacements and strengthening the squad in one window.
Nunez is not a target man in a 4 4 2
Do we? 
For me, it’s Alexander-Arnold. The other two aren’t particularly young, but he’s of the right age profile for being a key lynchpin moving forward. With Salah, I worry he might become that drug that we depend on that leaves us short moving forward.
I was taking the piss. The big man/little man joke should have given it away…
Both Van Dijk and Salah are physical outliers (at least they’ve been so far) - Salah has had about one significant injury in his career, while Van Dijk has had two (one of them being ACL) and he emerged from both of them vastly better than before.
That said, at their respective ages, they really shouldn’t be playing as much but both club and country need to find a balance there. Both have played almost every minute of every PL and CL game this season and it showed for Salah once he came up against very decent opposition in the space of the last two weeks.
That said, keeping Van Dijk for a year or two more is essential in my opinion, while stopping Salah usually means that you’ve stopped Liverpool’s attack. I’d like Salah to stay for a year or two more (without AFCON and with a bit more of rotation) but I’d definitely like the club to buy significantly better replacements for Diaz, Jota and Nunez first.
Lol
It’s not just that he was anonymous it is also that he never tracked their LB and that has been an achilles heal for us all season in that teams with marauding LB’s have caused us problems, either by creating 2 v 1’s against our RB or the having to pull Garev or Szob out of position.
I don’t think Mo’s out put at the other end can be questioned it is the balance going the other way against the very best teams.
I should hope so xxx
No one likes spending money (except my wife) but as always there is a big confusion between FSG’s money and Liverpool’s money.
Absolute bullshit from another who pops up after a loss.
And the fact people only think of spending in terms of transfer fees and not the wage bill that is the second highest in the league and fifth highest in Europe.
Or that a £300k a week contract for two years is about £31m. Dead easy to say pay those three what they want but if that was about the average we’d have to fork out then it’s near enough £100m being commited that would immediately be forgotten about by most fans when it came to calling the owners cheap.
Another clown who thinks we should all be sheep. I actually popped up before the game.
Just stick to trolling thealmightyred that’s all you are good at.
He doesn’t troll, he stalks…& no, he’s not even good at that.
They don’t like anyone with a different opinion and try to drive them off their forum. Lol. How are you doing mate?
Aww. Play date 
.
Lads, knock it off, will you? Everyone’s entitled to their opinion, so keep it civil.
Nobody is trying to ‘drive anyone off their forum’. When people post nonsense, knee jerk, reactionary, doom-mongering rubbish, other people are going to tend to want to point this out.
