    The guy is well on his way to becoming the complete defender. Give him a World Cup and another season in Europe and he'll be 20+million easily.

    If he gets into the Dutch squad, then we should be raiding the Dutch leagues for more top players.

    Virgil's long range passing is honestly so good, better than almost every central midfielder's at the club currently.

    *, he really is the complete package.

    He would do the business no matter where in the pitch he played, his touch and passing is sublime and then there's his pace and power.

    I want Van Dijk to stay at Celtic for a couple of years to help the team progress and so he can develop further. Then sell him to the highest bidder and sign a new defender in his place to develop.

    I think we might lose him in the summer. He's making the right noises to them "in football anything is possible" which is fair enough.

    I just hope we top out Wanyama fee as this guy would bd worth every penny to a EPL side.

    Would be surprised if we managed to keep him much longer than another season if he keeps up his form of late. In saying that no real need to sell unless we're talking substantial amounts of money.

    Personally I think we'll keep him for next season and try to tie him up on an improved contract that offers hIm short term gain with long term gain to us.
    Win, win if PL gets it across the line, which I think he will.
    I don't think VVD feels the need to rush into the move across the border as we offer him growth that will benefit him long term.
    All of this based on bullshit knowledge of course!

    I personally think he would be the difference for us qualifying for the champions league groups again.

    With him in the team 90% chance of qualifying
    Without him in the team I'd guess 65% chance of qualifying.

    He is that important to us

    We'll keep him 'til next January or hopefully next summer, same as Wanyama he needs another season of European football to really show himself to the world. Hopefully we buy a good striker and actually do ourselves justice in the CL next year, which would also help Van Dijk's individual cause.

    We'll get big money for him regardless, but how big the fee is depends on what his team mates do - because in many games this year he's been the best player and certainly in many European games he was one of the only ones who looked truly comfortable at that level.
