Just one problem;
We took Lovern from them so they bought VVD.

As was evidenced during the Luis Suarez experiment, a player can be a genius and, at the same time, be poison to the reputation of a club. I mean, I can't tell you how broken-hearted I was when he self-imploded and forced LFC to banish him...but it had to be done.
The point is that the tough part about signing a "star" player is the baggage he brings with him. If a player can't adapt to Klopp, for example, he has absolutely no business being anywhere near Merseyside. As far back as I can remember, we've had respectable players, for the most part, so perhaps a young player that has real talent can come to Liverpool and become a partner to the great VVD.
Although I've definitely seen him play, I'm not familiar with Vestergaard's defensive skills. Is he a fairly stable center-back? Does he have VVD type speed? We really need to get Fabinho back to what he does best, aye?
