His performances are questionable and some don’t even consider him one of the best defenders in the world anymore. His return from injury was very complicated and this is felt in the goals conceded by Liverpool.
The Dutch defender couldn’t resist Perisić’s devastating dribble
Critics have been pouring in for a few hours on the performance of the Dutch defender during the match. What catches the attention of netizens more is the devastating action on which Perisić almost sucked the soul of van Dijk. The same commentator who had trolled Upamecano didn’t hesitate to unleash on the Dutchman by calling him, Virgil van Maguire.
A nickname referring to Harry Maguire, the Mancunian defender who is also experiencing great difficulties.
Netizens reacted to Perisić’s action against van Dijk
As you can imagine, this sequence has been talked about on social networks.
We could see in particular as comments via Twitter:
- “Finally the Arab commentator is right, he became VIRGIL Van Maguire”
- “I’m crying too much why he looks at the sky like that”
- “Human beings said he was better than Ramos”
- “People wanted to give this guy the Ballon d’Or”
- “And Liverpool take 3 points. Van Dijk will sleep well tonight”
- “It’s good to be the guy who doesn’t engage in duels, but there, we got you virgil”
- “He has become even more useless than Maguire without joking”
- “Are there really people who say he’s the best defender in the world? Other than stepping back and waiting for an error from the striker. When he goes for the ball, you see what happens”
- “I SWEAR YOU NORMAL PEOPLE SAID HE WAS BETTER THAN RAMOS”
There are plenty of other unsympathetic comments for the Reds defender.
We hope to see him again soon in better shape. Liverpool still have a Champions League spot to go. So they will need all available players to do so. At present, Liverpool (56 points) are 5th behind Manchester United (63 points) who have one game less.
