Said it before. Would love to see VDV as a LB … his pace in attack would be devastating.

It’s like having a Ferrari and only pulling it out on a Sunday for a clean and then parking it back again.

Defending no, I want him in the Bale LWF role
Power, pace, can dribble, can shoot, can pass, can finish
Devastating !!

I just feel like playing the way he does (with big risks, seemingly often punished) is something you can get away with at Brighton with their expectations but might lead to be eaten alive at WHL.

I have memories of ho Dier, Sanchez, Emerson Royal and Lloris were crucified at WHL when trying such risky things as defenders/defensive players..


I think sometimes solid safety first play works best before bringing in the risque stuff. I worry JPVH will be eaten alive at WHL doing what he does

Yeh fair, although if he is around better players who can pass, which is seemingly where we are going, then it might be all good.

Good luck to them.

70 million with a year left is nuts

It's not my money , so if RDZ wants him hope we pay what's needed, but I doubt it's going to be 70 million

Brighton always get good money for their players so in not surprised they want a fair old whack for this guy. Under Levy this deal wouldn't happen because neither side would be willing to budge, I guess we get to see what the new era are willing to do or are able to achieve.

But you're kind of talking about players trying to do something they weren't really capable of doing. None of the guys you mentioned were particularly great on the ball and even relative to their positions Lloris and Sanchez especially were really poor, whereas Van Hecke relative to his peers is a good technicien. That obviously doesn't mean he won't make mistakes or fudge up every now and again but it will be much more understandable when it does happens.

Surely, if JPVH is a good technician, it will be much LESS understandable if/when a bleep-up happens?
