Messi is the only player better than him currently.

It’s not even close. He’s the best defender since Nesta and Maldini but much more impactful overall as a footballer than Nesta and much less of a bottler than Maldini (i.e. he doesn’t lose goal threatening headers to 5’1 Korean men in the World Cup).

He’s been at Liverpool for only 11 months and has already transformed one of the worst defensive top teams in the world into the best defensive side in Europe (no team in the top 15 leagues have conceded less goals than Liverpool this season).

He single handedly took a team that had no business being in CL to the final. And now he’s spearheaded the best Liverpool start in PL history. And if not for bald hipster’s £2 billion squad of doping cheats he might even single handedly lead his team to the most difficult fairy tale PL title EVER. We’ve never seen such a David vs Goliath story unfold in front of us in real life as it has with Van Dijk led Liverpool and the disgusting slave trading cheating oil money Man City.

There really is not much more a single man can do than what Van Dijk has done in 11 short months. Outside of Messi, probably the most dominant display of footballing ability and prowess in the history of this game over an 11 month period.

I've seen him upstaged by Joe fucking Gomez on multiple occasions this season.

Rich mans Matip at most. Good to see you again though.

Imagine discounting Ronaldo, Neymar, Modric and Mbappe.

Welcome back, but I can't say I agree with you.

However, I can't think of too many better defenders of this generation.

Salah is the reason you were relevant last season

lmao McAgger with that 5/5 comeback thread Proud

Now we just need an injury crisis in May so that Origi can score the goals that win us the Premiership title.

6.6 in the semi 1st leg
6.3 in the semi 2nd leg
6.0 in the final

Welcome back McAgger but gtfo with that history revisionism. Salah was the reason, the ONLY reason Liverpool made that final. Without him, you lost 3-1 to Madrid. Literally. Ugh. Seriously though, welcome back man (but gtfo too).

Oxlade-Chamberlain was missed just as much if not more in the final. But what was missed the most was a sane goalkeeper Laughing

Only decided to include these 3 in my research because McAgger compared van Dijk to them himself but even if you only include players who played from 2010 until now van Dijk is still behind 11 center backs (at least) according to reliable FIFA ratings.

Oh jeez.

I'm so sorry for Liverpool fans. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted, a top 4 finish, a CL final, a very good start to a season, putting pressure on City for 2 months, that's not nothing.
