Have you seen the income of the clubs? Why did you think they made the purchase? It's because they could afford it. What other CB are they going to get at a similar quality that costs less than 50m?£75m doesn't matter to Liverpool?

They bought premium but they get the defender now instead of next summer and he can play in the CL.
He is not a bad CB but 75 million is too much. I'd put him in the same bracket as Jones (different techniques for sure, but talking about reliability as a defender).
This is fairly conclusive
That he kicked him right across the back of the legs?This is fairly conclusive
Yeah, it's conclusive. A brain dead decision to go swinging like that.This is fairly conclusive
This even more, clear pen...This is fairly conclusive
I just wonder why the Liverpool wanna focus on the most terrible video with the worst angle.
This is fairly conclusive
Pick the worse possible angle and say it's conclusive.There are so many videos and angles which shows contact, even Klopp said there was contact.
It fits their agenda. Clear penalty if anyone still doubts it.
You're better than this, you've chosen a bad camera angle intentionally in which you can still see the contact anyway. Look at any other angle and that'll be fairly conclusive.This is fairly conclusive
Cost 30 times as much as Johan CruijffCost twice as much as Rio
Lfc propagandaThis is fairly conclusive
Having only just managed to catch up on yesterday's game and all, (Edinburgh airport having no Sky, and my phone was dying) I have to say that the Lamela incident is a pen.
The Kane one though is a blatant hang a leg, miss contact, go down like you're shot dive. I'm amazed how a ref can fail to recognise this as it should be obvious to everyone concerned these days that it's a dive.

He knows it's a pen, look at the way he starts waving his hands straight away, sign of a guilty man that. £75m and not a clean sheet in site.This is fairly conclusive
Cost infinitely more than Pele.Cost 30 times as much as Johan Cruijff
Everyone will have a different opinion on the penalty, but thought he had a good game otherwise.
It's funny because whenever you see a replay of the 2nd penalty incident from that one crap angle you know it's a Liverpool fan citing it as evidence
Every other camera angle shows it's obviously a penalty.

my goodness are people still trying to say it's not a penalty?
He’s no Alan Hansen
Same.
Since his arrival Liverpool haven't won with him in the side & Southampton haven't lost. VVD the joke that never seems to end.
Everyone is talking about whether the kick was a penalty or not (it was). How come no one is talking about VVD's mis-judgement of the ball flight and the fact that he let the ball bounced in a crowded penalty box which lead to the foul?
Precisely a defender peaks most of the times between 28 & 34, thanks for proving my point.He's not far off 27
You make it sound as if he's a kid, did you just not realise how old he was?
meh, I'll judge him at the end of next season. He wouldn't be the first player to move to a new club and have a rough start.
Agreed, he's obviously got a lot of quality so no need to risk an egg on the face if he turns out to be brilliant for them.
I thought it was a pen in real time, I thought it was a pen even more so on the replay but this angle in the replay above makes me unsure. Looks like he pulled out a little and Lamela expected the kick and then exaggerated (as some Argentines can do lol)
I think Van Dijk is really good but like Arsenal's defenders, he wont ever look great under Klopp's tactics.

I still think he's a top class player. Happy it's all going wrong for him with them though.
At first watch I thought he'd swung and kicked his legs from him.
On a replay it looked marginal contact if any from that.
But from another angle, you can definitely see its the knee wiping him out. Plus some less than heroic acting of course
But agree, it's against Liverpool, and was a hilarious end to the game, but more importantly keeps both a good margin from us
So enjoyable to watch Liverpool still think it wasn' t a pen.
Lukaku has done a lot more in his career than VVD, to justify that price tag.
In some replays it looks like he missed him. But then in other ones, it is as clear as day that he kicked him. I would admit that Lamela made the most of it though.
Lovren having a jibe before and van Dijk after:
""They gave us time, sat back - even at home - and hope for the best on the counter and that is what they did especially in the second half but we had already put ourselves in a bad position."
How about, both learn how to defend?

He has a good headed goal in him.
Nothing special other than that. 25 million tops, but went for 75.

Played well unfortunately the clown next to him has an error in him. Spent the entire week championing himself aswell. Just man these damn interviews.
He's a good player...but not worth anywhere near the amount they bought him for and certainly not enough to sort out Liverpool's defensive issues on his own. Looked like a constant threat from set-pieces though, albeit he was being given far too much space to get a proper header away.
Thought he had a good game today but had fires to worry about on his right where Lovren was.
Probably our most threatening player offensively today.
