A £75m transfer fee for Saints defender for Virgil van Dijk.
Liverpool Football Club must have been feeling guilty to agree such a fee.
But Southampton Football Club should have rejected the offer on principle, given Liverpool’s illegal approach earlier in the season.
This was a classic case of a player with a very weak board, and the only losers are the team’s supporters.
Champions League, ha, try Fantasy League.
I’ll see you in the Championship.
