    Think he has been my favourite player since we signed him.

    I know he had a dip, but some were saying he had totally lost it last year while we were strugling, despite the heroics of the previous season.

    I think he has back to his "best" albiet now 32 years old... He may start to decline physically (pacewise). He is good enough to adapt for another 3-4 years if his body holds up, but its whether Klopp will want to adapt due to having less pace at the back.
    In the beginning, Fowler created the Heaven and the Earth.

      I see on The Overlap with Jaap Stam, Neville gave him the 10 best PL CBs to choose from as his partner, ie who is the best. He picked Virg .... no doubt some would cite Dutch bias but he also had Ferdinand and Vidic to choose and he went with the correct answer.

      Ian Wright and Roy Keane chose Tony Adams
      Thanks very much for being

        Always liked Stam, just a shame he joined United.
        If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

          I can understand that from Wright, but surprised Keane didn’t go for a Utd player.
          We are here for a good time not a long time....

            He was brilliant and always overlooked because of his falling out with Fergie, him and VVD is the right answer and they complement each other perfectly

              He always reminded me of a Dr Who villain without a helmet.

              I forget which one. I'm tempted to say Cyberman but I don't think it was.

                  I thought Stam was a beast. Also like their song about him too

                  "Jip jaap Stam is a big dutchman,
                  get past him if you ****ing can,
                  try a litlle trick and he'll make you look a dick,
                  jip jaap, Jaap Stam."

                                Have to say he's playing much better than last season. Looks assured again.
