Liverpool fans have been dazzled by Memphis Depay.
Netherlands have been thriving under Ronald Koeman, and produced a superb fightback against Germany on Sunday – before losing late on.
After missing out on the last two major tournaments, the Dutch appear to be returning to prominence, with the likes of Matthijs de Ligt and Frenkie de Jong excelling.
Sunday’s home game with Germany was another big test, but they fell behind inside 15 minutes as Leroy Sane struck the visitors in front.
Serge Gnabry made it 2-0 before a superb fightback, with De Ligt and then Memphis Depay finding the net for Koeman’s men.
It looked like the teams would play out a draw, but Nico Schulz hit a late, late winner for Germany to give them a 3-2 win and all three points in the Euro 2020 qualifiers.
In an entertaining game, the Dutch more than played their part, and forward Depay again caught the eye as he continues to thrive away from Manchester United.
Depay has hit 35 goals in 106 games for Lyon since a 2017 move, and has now taken his record for his country to 16 goals in 46 games – making him a one in three forward for club and country.
Now, Liverpool fans are taking to Twitter to urge the club to sign Depay despite his torrid spell with rivals United, feeling that he’s now become a machine and must join forces with Georginio Wijnaldum at Anfield, improving Jurgen Klopp’s attack in the process.
