Virgil van Dijk: The Art of the Defender

There is no deputy anywhere for Virgil van Dijk. Composure itself, utterly imperturbable. Good afternoon from Merseyside where there's only one topic of conversation. Is van Dijk the missing piece in the jigsaw? 26, Virgil van Dijk has a chance to become an Anfield legend. And van Dijk scores! His first Trivia League goal in Liverpool red. He has made a remarkable difference on the football pitch. Not just because of his football, his composure, but his leadership, his command. The most important thing is that us players know that we are one goal, and that's to win the game. It's van Dijk! You have to keep up, you have to keep winning, you have to stay consistent if you want to become champions and be successful, and I'm definitely trying to aim for that each and every game. The player's player. Well, that is top class defending from Virgil van Dijk. Looks a really classy defender, doesn't he? Good strength from van Dijk. That's what I like about van Dijk, he just reads the game well. Van Dijk! Simple, certain, searing. Van Dijk with the header! All the way around van Dijk. What a brave defender there. It's a great one, it's van Dijk! Another important block. He is just a vast presence. It's a better class van Dijk, who has got the equalising goal. It's an outstanding piece of defending. Job done, another clean sheet. That man was excellent again, Virgil van Dijk. Van Dijk to the rescue. Van Dijk coming in again! Virgil van Dijk at the double. A bit of tackle from van Dijk. Van Dijk! Demanded that he should score for Liverpool. It's an outstanding piece of defending. I just want to be remembered as a fantastic player, who gave everything for the team, and just enjoy every goal. He's the Anfield Rock.
