Pk85 our defence woes get worse. Wish VVD all the best in his career and thank him for his service

Pk85 , he is not going to link up with the Dutch squad . Maybe he is going on a short holiday or maybe he is meeting someone .

Does that mean we've got our £11.5m? Just read we asked for 13 but said 11.5 was a "take it or leave it". I was wanting 15 myself so hopefully there's some add-ons thrown in for good measure.

Jim Tim are u serious! 15 million!! Did u watch the Malmo game on Tuesday?? or any game he's played in Europe when the opposition actually have a go! Found wanting every time! If theyr offering 11.5 then we should bite there hands off!

Dh88 the transfer market has gone crazy in this present day.Today Fulham knocked back £10 million for ross McCormack,Man City paid almost £50million for sterling a guy who scored 18 goals in 97 games ,just two examples of how the market is,so why shouldn't celtic ask for £13million for vvd.Scottish clubs have been fleeced for years in the transfer market by english teams.killy.

Killy the English market is partly fuelled by the need to have your quota of English born players in your team. Unless you comply you can't compete in the EPL. So all English players have a big premium. Having said that some non English players are getting silly fees but in the main it's the international players going to the big clubs. It's easy to think that everyone in EPL is transferring for 30 mill plus. If one of the top 6 ( last season) come in for you then the fee can be high but Southampton don't pay £20 mill for anyone. I think their transfer record is £14 mill. Stoke spent a club record of £12 mill this transfer window. The majority of transfers are under £14 mill but they get very little coverage. If we get £11.5 for VVD that's fine. We can win SPL without him. We are not going to do anything in Europe with him in or out of the team and if his replacement is any good we will get 2 years out of him before we sell h on as well
