Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk worded everyone’s thoughts when he recently said that The Reds were facing a hot moment in the Premier League.

In a comment published by Liverpoolfc.com, the skipper said the following:

‘It is not ideal but we have to adapt and that’s football. Whoever is going to be on that pitch has to perform, that is what we all expect as well.

‘We are in the middle of a very intense period with games on the very highest level and pressure. Everyone has to be ready to perform.

‘Very, very impressed [with Elliott] and Curtis when he went to right-back. It’s very important for these guys that when they have their moments, Harvey in this case, they grab them with both hands. We need them.

‘Even if you start on the bench, you have to be ready to make an impact. This was a great example of that again. This season there has been a lot of players who have come from the bench and made a difference. That’s what we need.’

Many Merseyside Reds’ fans would agree.
