Dejan Lovren: Liverpool defender eyes long-term partnership with Virgil van Dijk

"We understood each other quite well and hopefully we can do it also in the future like that."

Liverpool travel to rivals Manchester United on Saturday and Lovren is hoping to face Romelu Lukaku again.

We are stuck with him after the long-term contract he signed, think it was last season.

Contracts mean absolutely diddly squat.....usually, and for good players with talent.

Sometimes their are exceptions to that rule, and this is sadly one of them.
We're STUFFED with him I fear. eek

The point is he's on a long-term contract on big money, I believe around £100k a week. Nobody is going to buy him and pay that so I can't see him being moved on anytime soon.

His form has been poor ever since he joined us so the decision to reward him with a new contract is utterly baffling.

Unless we do a Sturridge and send him out on loan to rid ourselves of his wage bill.

I'm not worried about Lovren forming a bond with Van Dyke, I'm worried about him defending against opposing team's forwards. Van Dyke should instantly make Lovren a better defender, but he (Lovren) has shown time n again he's not a defender or certainly not good enough for LFC. Get rid, he makes us weaker.
