Not selling van Dijk

Our landlord cannot for the life of him understand why Southampton have held on to Virgil van Dijk.

The Saints captain wants to leave the club and has made that obvious, it was time to cash in and get rid of a player who now has the power to really upset the harmony of the squad within weeks of the new season.

Whilst the Southampton fans don’t like to hear this, the ones in the Tavern agree with our landlord and they wish the dispute was settled much earlier in the summer.
