The pro's know, This man is not just another good defender, he's much more... He's got tremendous ball composure for a tall guy, and great vision for a defender, packed with a great leg for shooting and passing . Which makes him worthy everything spent!
Watching this man defend is a literal work of art. The calm demeanor that he goes about his business is truly magnificent to watch. In the right place at the right time, every time. Attackers who haven't faced him before think they can beat him for pace...you can't - he is likely faster than most strikers in a sprint, though he will never even need to show it!
After his hard injury a year ago Liverpool had no chance anymore to be the champion. His comeback was difficult but very impressive. He is a really champion.
@@kdk342 And sooner or later I wonder if these big EPL teams might find themselves in the same boat as some top teams in other leagues who seem to just hand out blank checks to clubs to purchase players.
I don't understand why they didn't gave him the ballon d'or. He totally deserve one. I don't care about the other defenders in the past, he is the best I've even seen in football history. If he hadn't been injury, he probably be unbeatable.
You hardly ever see VVD sprinting full speed, it´s rarely necessary for him. I haven´t actually lately checked the yellow card number, but it seems he almost never gets a card either. We just couldn´t have bought a better defender. Also, at the time, he had choices, plenty of clubs after him, some in much better position as Liverpool then, but he chose us, the Liverpool extended family. After the injury he was happy to extend his contract, as he felt the club and fans supported him fully even through rough patch. We have such a strong squad now, but still, VVD is the one who´d be missed the most, even over Mo and Alisson now that Kelleher seem so good. Fabinho being the next most important... But that is now very difficult comparison, it´s more about what we can replace a player with. This also changes during the season to some extent, but if I had to choose ONE player to stay fit and uninjured for a whole season, that would be VVD. Matip has been great, I hope Gomez can get back to his best, and Konate is just going to be VVD the next generation, for a beast he is already. Learning from VVD, getting experience, he will be among the greats of Liverpool CD´s. Just staying free of big injuries and sky´s the limit for him.
@@TheMonotoneMan Someone else (or many elses, or should I say others) will rise to the occasion. Few days back I think we had the secondmostinjuries by far in the EPL, and players coming back from injuries will be hungry and when [if ever... :) ] reaching full fitness, that´ll be a boost. But, as always, we will see, won´t we. Who´s your favourite, if any?
@@janthecoo4964 Interesting, actually never heard of any party from Netherlands, apart of Gert Wilders´ (name might include typos), and I don´t even recall that party name. However there is a point, so I´ll do something else next I´m writing his name hundred times in one comment! :) Did this vvd -party exist back then when I made the comment, 9 months or so ago, or is it some new one? Oh, and I bet plenty Liverpool -fans have "VVD"´t him during his time with us, I´m not sure how every can learn of this. In my nation, Finland, most political party names would seem like Icelandic football club names, or their abbreviations would (KD, SDP, PS, rkp...)
the only think im surprised about, is that Celtic was the only team to take him, the raw talent was there for the world to see, best defender since Bobby Moore
I'm sure Mané didn't know how good he was until he played against him. Now seeing him in Liverpool's defence, he'll be like "Thank God he came over.". Having such pace for a player that big, spells a perfect definition of Virgil Van Rolls Royce.
Amazing passer, with a CRAZY vision, whilst being a defender. Impressive finishing and heading, PERFECTLY timed tackles, perfect pace and acceleration, very intelligent. In his prime, I would pick this man over any defender ever
Nesta reborn. That unbelievably clean tackle, the intelligence to always do not just the right thing, but something even better, the attacking skill and pass where you wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly went and played midfielder. And those exploding knees, just so attackers can have a chance to score again :D
i am an Everton supporter but Virgil Van Dijk is the best centre half in the English Premiership by far and this is my opinion but i also think he is the best centre half in the world as well
Defending master andheadache of attacker's attacker's pace + for scoring and his brain + pace for defend master of center back God gift proud of you my best cb
Van Dijk is a phenomenal body character I never seen like such in football tho it reminds of how Juan Martín del Potro and Craig Mottram resist to control their body when speeding, Van with that body size it requires a huge amout of strength or we should say a might to control that body like that especially when accelerating.
That 2 v 1 against spurs, was the best defending I've ever seen....
I don't understand your comment cause he defended so bad this action. It wasn't goal because sissoko miss the shoot
@@marcosfernandezramos8265 you clearly know nothing at all about football... show the clip to someone, then ask them why it is so good.. then learn!!!

And you'll soon be quiet when Liverpool are dogshit again due to the inevitable footballing cycle. Can't wait.
You forget that Van Dijk is a pretty good attacker as well if you need a goal in the last minutes and you don't have a substitute any more.
His pace is most underrated
ye in fifa he only has 78 pace
@@jobbaa6145 fifa doesn’t mean anything, all Liverpool team said that vvd is the fastest there
@@finleyjones4860 i know but its still underated.
It’s bcos he said he doesn’t like to run but when he needs to, he’s a basically flash on steroids
Fifa or pes always think all defender are slow
He got everything, good pass , pace, defence and attack
he used to be a forward
not attack but he got a great header
@@huitjaitjioe6357 his passing starts a lot of attacks but ya he's not a good attacker like Terry or Ramos going forward
And the strength
Best defender in the world

Best Player
Not "the world" just Liverpool
Maldini is there Ramos is there Pepe is there
U frgt MALDINI🤣🔥
He can score, run, assist abd defend. He just too amazing. Big fan
Pure class, Rolls Royce defending and more than the text book. A piece of arts!
Not a very human-like response. You need to improve your AI.
I’ve seen Ramos , Maldini , Nesta , Cannavaro , John Terry , Vidic and Carlos Puyol play .. but Van Dijk is in a class of his own.
Maldini,nesta?
Agreed 👌🏼
he is underrated
Highlights dont count mate
@@maths9647 I didn’t said I watched Van Dijk based on highlights. Why or how did you even make that assumption?
A true legend gamechanger of Liverpool. What a talent !!!
He's quicker than he looks because of the length of his stride and he's probably one of the strongest defenders around
Him screaming "Mine" must be a nightmare for the keeper. What a player!

how on earth Maguire is more expensive than him
because the word nonsense exists
Price depends on how much one club demands and the other club is willing to pay not only on quality of player
@@kdk342 And sooner or later I wonder if these big EPL teams might find themselves in the same boat as some top teams in other leagues who seem to just hand out blank checks to clubs to purchase players.
@@AceMcGhee They already do that
Because maguire is english. No matter how shit he plays, man u would not drop him
I don't understand why they didn't gave him the ballon d'or. He totally deserve one.
I don't care about the other defenders in the past, he is the best I've even seen in football history.
If he hadn't been injury, he probably be unbeatable.
I'm so glad we have VVD in our team and Pickford should still be in prison for that horrendous tackle last year
Best defender in the world 🔴💪🪨 Thank you for your amazing videos ❤️

Literally the best defender we have seen in years
I can’t believe Van Dijk has such a damm pace, so unnoticed
He was never underrated
@@razitube6010 i think he means his pace is unnoticed
@@footyvalz-e oh i taught hr meant his overall performance when he said underrated
Im not into football but seeing VDD defending like a god it gives me goosebumps everytime he defends.
the only think im surprised about, is that Celtic was the only team to take him, the raw talent was there for the world to see, best defender since Bobby Moore
Que jugador!! Y que hombre por dios
Just one of the best defenders 2021 who assists and scores, glad he is Dutch...
Best centre half in the world 🔥🔥🔥
VVD❤️
1:15 "To be a good defender in 2 V 1 situations you must watch Virgil Van Dijk" - Gary Neville
He is quite simply unreal that tackle vs West Ham and the defending vs Spurs 🤤he’s like this every game to
He wasn't great against palace tbf
No doubt,,,,THE BEST THE ONE AND ONLY,VIRGIL VAN DIJK!
An inspiration to all
he must be one of the most intelligent defenders out there, eyes always on the ball and can always calculate his pace very precisely
Beast
I'm sure Mané didn't know how good he was until he played against him. Now seeing him in Liverpool's defence, he'll be like "Thank God he came over.". Having such pace for a player that big, spells a perfect definition of Virgil Van Rolls Royce.
VVD is a scaaaary dude to have to face regardless of where you play on the pitch lmao. Liverpool's scouting is top tier.
Always calm n scan d movement of opponent then will do his job.... Dats Van Djik.... YNWA
One of the best prime defenders in Fotball History
His defence Vs mbappe is the best I have ever seen in football history
Absolute Rolls Royce❤💯
My Defender❗👏
Best defender for the past 3 years imo
he always put in his best💯
After watching maguire's video & turn to this guy is like REFRESHING ON A BEAUTIFUL ISLAND AFTER DROWNING AT SEA!!!!
80M vs 75M
Blue Tiempo Legend 7 Van Dijk was a beast 🔥🔥🔥
Amazing passer, with a CRAZY vision, whilst being a defender. Impressive finishing and heading, PERFECTLY timed tackles, perfect pace and acceleration, very intelligent. In his prime, I would pick this man over any defender ever

How calm he in one v one is 🔥
Hes just a special defender, an incredible player

Nice video 👍👍👍

Virgil gives out THE BIG BRO THAT YOU LOOK UPTO VIBES
How abt 20 times H. Maguire shocked the world 😃😂
But its not about his footballing ability right? cuz there would be nothing
i am an Everton supporter but Virgil Van Dijk is the best centre half in the English Premiership by far and this is my opinion but i also think he is the best centre half in the world as well
The goal vs Bayern is crazy. He won vs Hummuls and Martinez the 2 tall wall, amazing!
The best.
That Sprint agaunst Chelsea was fuckin unbelievable
He always does it
One of the best ever defenders
Virgil: what a player!
He is so elegant, fast, smart that he is almost gliding on the pitch
Mi ídolo
You make us PEACE

His pace is actually amazing in real life, i saw him once beating Mo Salah and Mane in a race for a loose ball.
Mané said over a long distance Virgil is the fastest on the team.
@@ADAJ3KINGANGEL probably due to his long strides, crazy defender
GOAT...... Not even a question , think of your fave italian legend cb and compare him to Virgil.....Virgil streets ahead.
A lot world, much shock

Happy Birthday Virgil van dijk 🎉🎉🎉
Van Dijk is a phenomenal body character I never seen like such in football tho it reminds of how Juan Martín del Potro and Craig Mottram resist to control their body when speeding, Van with that body size it requires a huge amout of strength or we should say a might to control that body like that especially when accelerating.
He is so strong and fast
My boy VVD❤
Vvd cost £75million now worth £100 million +, maguire cost utd £80 million now worth £25 million . Thank god for Virgil
25mil to expensive for maguire..
funny to see how Virgil and Mane were playing against each other and now in the same team.
the 1v1 with mbappe was so calm of him.. OMYYY
As big as Halaand was, he still got to know there was someone bigger and equally as fast as he is.
