Liverpool transfer news: Southampton star Virgil van Dijk is on his way

Van Dijk left Southamptons training ground earlier today as talk of a move to Liverpool rumbles on.

The Reds - as well as rivals Arsenal and Chelsea - have been tipped to sign the Holland international despite Southamptons insistence he is not for sale.

There was much speculation on Twitter as to where Van Dijk was going after being pictured leaving earlier today. But former star Thompson says the defender is on his way to Merseyside.

Vvd on his way to Lfc. Some spending g [sic] going on from FSG, he said. Southampton have always stressed it would take a sizeable offer for them to give up their prized defensive asset.

And Liverpool may have met that, if are anything to go by. Meanwhile, the signing of Van Dijk may not be the Reds last piece of business.

They announced the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Premier League rivals Arsenal earlier this morning for a fee of £35million. And Express Sport understands they also remain keen on Monaco winger Thomas Lemar.

The Reds have had two bids rejected for the France international. But a third - of around £92million - may be enough to persuade the Ligue 1 giants to finally cash in.

Van Dijk would become Liverpools fifth summer signing after deals for Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, Dominic Solanke and Oxlade-Chamberlain. Van Dijk left Southamptons training ground earlier today as talk of a move to Liverpool rumbles on.

Sad News | Highlight about Obi Madubogwu as a Nollywood Director - Duration: 13:12.

all right

no it all started wanted to do a real movie from what we do in knowledge I

searched for somebody that could write a good story we would scream Polly and

somebody recommended valued mrs. Vallon she's written a lot of our international

stories so from there we had series of scripts conference before we got to

getting what who have now I'll destroy script to leave again starting from CD

mokume ie the character the kind of character I needed for that Joshua was

went to be somebody like a schema somebody that true his face you can see

his heart and she is a versatile actor he has done couple of movies but one

thing I like about is acting personality that I'm he's not everywhere unlike our

normal artist want to be in every production so I needed somebody that the

face is not everywhere and that could play the role that because I know that

rule is a very difficult card he's not a kind of role you would clean when you're

shooting three different films every time he's the kind of role you need

somebody like Gd that doesn't act so often doesn't act often because not just

because there are no script for him to do but he takes his time to pick a good

movie a good story to do so immediately I sent him that script he went through

it or like Kobe while does a good one I'm actually making arrangements for it

made to help our house

okay that's fine but I was going to suggest that they stay with us for at

least if she gets China oh that's goodness that's very good oh

really give me a bell you leave and I'll have ample time to get a new name and

bow on my way out of town when the story was sent to me of doing a trip to

America and I remember I said to the producer soon as I read the story I said

you have to wait for me to come back I want to do this job you know I want to

do this story an interesting story is not your regular run-of-the-mill story

is not an adaptation of any other kind of story like they always do you know

around here so it's a it's an original story it's a diversion from the regular

things that you have and I'm sure it's something that will resonate you know

with people from different walks of life you know they'll find that he connects

to a lot of people in many different ways you know so it was a story that got

to me and I thought I wanted to be a part of it but it was even the one

calling me telling me Abby it's bet I would do it this way that way

contributing a lot not like what we see in most of our artists now most of them

even when you're giving the script most of them will not even go through the

script because they have a lot of jobs they jump from this project film project

to the other Joshua to show the dishes starts off in this movie and basically

the ultimate bad boy having a lot of crisis and conflict

issues dealing with his problems and rather than just sit down our faces

problems head-on you find Joshua gallivanting and trying to run away from

his problems but then eventually you can you can really only run so far from your

shadows so this problems catch up with him and then he has to deal with you and

packing interest a very easygoing nice girl and here you have to be a

backstabbing slimy which naturally I'm not in mr. doose

and all of that it's not me I'm just saying I don't kiss you know those ones

I think that don't be enclosed girls we know everybody gets to see so I don't

really have all the time and again I need to thank my crew members the crew

members are wonderful we have the best DOP the lights on and that's lights on

is teri my sound does check and my have all the production the sets designer

Wilfred my makeup artist Matthew my customer Jovita and assistant everybody

here is wonderful seriously it all happens if you have people like

that to work with it's perfect they are the perfect were match made in heaven

for a movie I think and that's why this movie would turn out to be the point

like I like I said earlier I needed to do something that is different from what

it was obtained here in Hollywood because where we are growing

I needed to shoot a film of just Mary kind of a film because of the quality of

the project so I didn't want to go like our usual people because they've been in

the industry for 10 years 20 years you want to use them so I needed people that

that knows film has team orientation so I went a long way because I went to I

have a friend in South Africa he's done couple of jobs in America London so he

recommended the DOP told me that the Nigerian guy

very good as a Ikey oh I called him I was lucky it was in Nigeria

I think Highlands discuss with him that's the producer you should be

psychologically inclined so when I spoke with him within some

minutes I there would no stopping us here the nest was a the production

designer normally most of the themes I've done close to hundred and thirty

six films I don't think I've actually used like a production designer but I

Kate as a deal we really helped a lot we introduced me to most of his colleagues

but he has been doing some international jobs wait

so it really was because I explained to him this what I wanted but I wanted to

do a real project not just if he owned so I party was it was no easy because

these are not like regular Nollywood kind of people these are

people that collects big money you know but with the help of a high K to the DOP

they were able to come down then they light man - usually I don't call it

light man when I'm shooting it should be like the DUP trying to light to

everything so we I am seeing the torch of it professionalism in production in

this particular production to live again then this sound man about those

colleagues they're so wonderful all of them is equally very good Abbadon has

some great level of professional torch so I'm happy I'm I've

worked with a be mad about group previously on a different script I think

we work together both in front of the camera and behind the camera I think

I've done I've acted for him in a movie and then I've also done behind the

scenes especially first director on one or two of his older movies and we have

the very Google Apple and then the rest of the crew or the crew on this movie

said the guys are on fire you know they're not your regular regular

Nollywood crew you know we have a group of Boris fresh from film school who me

exactly what they're doing and I like the enthusiasm with which they do their

work you know and I'm normally very impatient you know have zero tolerance

for mediocrity but on this set I find that I'm able to

be patient because I can see the boys are doing their best to achieve you know

the interpretation that they're trying to give to the story so the boys are

awesome the DOP like the sound guys the production designer Wilfred but the boys

are doing an awesome job is great now look don't work the restrictions of

having locations to use access to use to get but even though we're in same house

in the Welkin designing DVDs will capitalism that the actual day will be

like the former house typically the house but a certain wind different makes

it a lot easier so that I don't see what I have it out

I don't like that idea so I have you got to do my things original I think this

movie is gonna win a lot of awards I didn't tell you before starting this

movie we had already sent these scripts to four different countries where I have

some contacts movie contacts like Spain UK America

- Morgan Entertainment in America yes Canada they've gone through the script

and they gave me the standard to shoot so I will premiere in those countries so

that's why we are not in a rush like normal Nollywood thing where we should

15 scene 20 scenes in a day I'm not after the number of things we should

come after how good so we should probably talk action

Breaking Steve Bannon Fires First Shot In War With Fox News Execs Who Bashed Trump - Duration: 12:54.

Breaking Steve Bannon Fires First Shot In War With Fox News Execs Who Bashed Trump

President Trump is one very smart person and every move he does is calculated for the sake

of all the American citizens.

Together with Steve Bannon, they were an amazing duo but year after he left his position at

the White House.

He is currently executive chairman of Breitbart News but according to some, he is not stopping

there.

The former Former Chief White House Strategist is planning something big.

Reportedly he is planning to start a new television channel to rival Fox News and to go against

all the mainstream media that keep on bashing Trump.

Axios reports that Jonathan Swan hears Bannon has told friends he sees a massive opening

to the right of Fox News, raising the possibility that he's going to start a network.

Bannon's friends are speculating about whether it will be a standalone TV network or online

streaming only.

Before his death in May, Roger Ailes had sent word to Bannon that he wanted to start a channel

together.

Bannon loved the idea: He believes Fox is heading in a squishy, globalist direction

as the Murdoch sons assume more power.

Now he has the means, motive, and opportunity: His chief financial backer, Long Island hedge

fund billionaire Bob Mercer, is ready to invest big in what's coming next, including a huge

overseas expansion of Breitbart News.

Before Roger Ailes' death on May 18 continues Axios, he expressed a final wish to some of

his few remaining confidants: to get back in the game, with a conservative network that

would position itself to the right of Fox News, as his baby became more moderate under

the next generation of Murdoch leadership.

In his final days, Ailes sent a message to Steve Bannon in the White House that he'd

love to team up on a new conservative media powerhouse.

In an interview with Bloomberg News, Bannon issued the following warning:

"If there's any confusion out there, let me clear it up: I'm leaving the White House

and going to war for Trump against his opponents — on capitol hill, in the media, and in

corporate America."

Sooner or later something like this needs to happen.

The mainstream media are reaching every possible limit and someone needs to stop them.

After leaving he faced major negativity from all those who hate on Trump's administration

but this is irrelevant.

Let's all hope this is true and that we finally will see something else than fake

news

on television.

Liverpool transfer news: Virgil van Dijk is wanted by Liverpool - Duration: 3:37.

Liverpool transfer news: Virgil van Dijk is wanted by Liverpool

Liverpool have wanted the Dutch centre-back for months and aren't ruling out a deadline-day bid. It would serve as part of a huge day of spending at Anfield with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain set to sign.

The Reds are also holding talks with Monaco over a possible deal to sign Thomas Lemar. We contacted Liverpool's official club shop this morning to enquire whether there was any way Van Dijk shirts were for sale.

A helpful shop worker asked: "Is it officially signed off now?". When we confirmed no deal had been confirmed, they added: "Okay, so we can't print shirts with his name on until he's actually signed.

There was a way round it, though. If your name is Van Dijk the club WILL allow you to print shirts. The worked added: "You'd need to fill out a shirt personalisation form and show that's your surname.

Liverpool will have to put a huge bid on the table if they are to get their man but Southampton legend Francis Benali thinks the Dutchman is staying.

"My gut feeling is that Virgil will still be a Saints player when the window shuts," he said.

"There's a lot of talk about the money he could go for and seeing the sort of fees some players are fetching it could take a huge, maybe record bid to prise him away after another good season at Southampton.

"Saints could be looking at £80m-plus. It will be a decision for the club to take but I'm pleased with the stance they have taken and would like to see him remain a Saints player as long as possible.

Triple H OFFERS Ronda Rousey WWE Move! | WrestleTalk News Sep. 2017 - Duration: 4:43.

Hello and welcome to the WrestleTalk News - I'm Oli Davis.

PWI 500 Pro Wrestling Illustrated is a professional

wrestling magazine even older the Big Dave Meltzer's illustrious Wrestling Observer

Newsletter, founded almost a decade before in 1972.

It's the longest running English language publication devoted to playfighting, and even

now - in a world proliferated by list articles about absolutely anything (make sure to tune

into our 5 Botched NXT Call-Ups this weekend) - their annual ranking of the top 500 wrestlers

in the world is still considered a pro wrestling event.

For the first time in the list's history, a Japanese wrestler topped the poll, with

Kazuchika Okada being named the best in the world since July 2016.

Which is probably well deserved, considering Dave Meltzer believes all three of his matches

with Kenny Omega this year are the best in wrestling history.

In his interview with the magazine, Okada spoke about a future move to the United States:

"[Going to WWE is] not something I think about.

New Japan is far superior to WWE when it comes to the quality of the roster and the quality

of the matches."

Rainmaker!

...I've only got coins.

Just as traditional as the annual PWI 500, is the accompanying debate and moaning over

which wrestlers should be ranked higher or lower.

For those people, Samoa Joe wants to hurt you.

"If in the biz & upset about your PWI ranking, schedule permitting I'll stop by & toss a

brick at your head to justify your boo boo face"

To which The Young Bucks retorted: "Yeah, easy for you to say, Mr. #8!"

Okada was joined in the top five by AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns and Kenny Omega

- in descending order.

In celebration of the list, I've actually compiled my own rankings - which is mainly

dominated by Smackdown referee Rudy Charles.

You're the best Rudy!

Maybe in a few years time...

Triple H Offers Ronda Rousey WWE Move ...Ronda Rousey will be cracking the top 10.

Fightful reported last month that the UFC star had "expressed interest in a pro wrestling

run, even going so far as to learn some of the basics from a current WWE wrestler"

- training with Brian Kendrick in Southern California.

This was around the time Rousey visited the WWE Performance Center to watch her fellow

Four Horsewoman Shayna Baszler compete in the Mae Young Classic, prompting Triple H

to post a photo of the two on Twitter.

While promoting the WWE Network tournament on ESPN's First Take, Triple H made Ronda

a very public offer to join WWE: "Ronda has been a huge fan of WWE her whole

life...

I think it's something that she's definitely interested in and I'll throw it out right

now: if she's interested I'll give her the opportunity.

We're all about personalities and that's what she brings to the table."

Triple H's comments could just be a way to promote a public narrative of Ronda coming

to WWE - with an agreement for her to wrestle already in place backstage.

Along with the Fightful report that Rousey has started training, the Wrestling Observer

Newsletter recently claimed WWE are "very high on the Horsewoman vs. Horsewoman idea"

- pitting Ronda, Baszler and their other MMA Horsewomen Marina Shafir and Jessamyn Duke,

against their WWE counterparts Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch.

Ronda is still under contract with the UFC, but she hasn't fought since last December

and has no fights booked on the horizon.
