Sounds like Pool are going to be charged with tapping up(or at least Soton will try to get them charged).

Could be in a bit of trouble with their pursuit of Van Dijk

Embarrassing to say the least. Tried to jump the queue and you just can't do it.

Yep. But weirdly its not uncommon for soccer players.

Apparently the PL have indicated they won't look into the Van Dijk issue any further now Liverpool have withdrawn their interest.

Even as a Liverpool fan, I don't get it. Given we've publicly acknowledged wrong doing, I would've thought signing or not signing the player is irrelevant to potential punishment.

Farcical all round.

There were quite a few in the Italian league a few tears ago. I remember cocaine was blamed for one of them.

I was looking up cocaine and South American football and came across this:

If you read through to what Diego says about the Argentina/Australia World Cup qualifier and his speedy coffee "that helped THEM (not just Maradonna) run much faster. Where were the drug testers that night? *!*!*!*!ing WADA, couldn't lay straight in bed.

Tapping up is a serious matter, Klopp has definitely stuffed up and we are lucky if we walk away with just an apology.

In saying that I wouldn't be surprised if we still sign him but it won't be for a month if anything. At the inflated price I don't know about it.

He wouldnt resign for under £50k, which for a guy he hasnt played much is a bit of a joke.

Talented at youth level, but hasnt shown much since. Cheap squad filler for you guys. Is behind Tammy Abraham so i guess he saw the writing on the wall and got out

Talented enough for the Golden Ball at the u/20 World Cup. Maradona, Messi, Pogba all previous winners Chef it looks a bargain now.

I'll be pretty happy with Tammy Abraham for the next decade so good luck to the lad.

Should give a shout out to Brendan Rogers and his Celtic Invincibles. They were crowned treble winners and Invincibles. The first team to remain unbeaten during a top-flight season of Scotland since Rangers in 1898/99.
