Spain with only three clubs capable to talk with autority when football is discoursed has won the cl more than 14 times and still dominating. England with about 20 clubs are struggling to compete at the same level with Spain. I feel if it were a club in Spain that tap, chat, manipulate, engineered, abduct up VVD, it would’ve been welcomed so long as it will help the Spanish clubs in winning the cl at the expense of English clubs. It’s time English clubs wake up and live up to the standard. If Lfc will win the cl they need VVD. I call on Southampton fc to help Lfc achieve it for the epl. Pls sell VVD to LFC.
