Not much different than when we blocked Suarez's move to Arsenal...
Not really.
1. Arsenal is a direct rival. Neither Southampton nor Leipzig are.
2. According to reports Arsenal bid £40 mn + £1. A ridiculously low amount for one of the 5 best players in the world at that time. We are ready to make VvD the most expensive defender transfer ever and Keita the most expensive African footballer ever. According to reports we are ready to spunk £120 - 130 mn on the two of them.

Yea but I think with VvD you have the little bit of bad blood already from the whole tapping up scandal, not to mention we've raided their roster countless times already, so they're probably a bit sick of it. In order for that one to happen, I think he's gonna have to kick up a fuss putting in a transfer request, and then we'll still have to pay out the arse for Southampton to not feel like we're taking advantage of them.

But bottom line... We blocked Suarez's desired move to a UCL club, when we weren't one... Sure, there were nuanced differences to the situation.. But the question was specifically around clubs blocking players moves and thats exactly what we did..
If anything, it was even worse (for them) since Suarez had a £40mm buyout and we just flat out refused to sell..
