'Really cool' - Ian Wright believes Liverpool man is so quick, but rarely shows it

Ian Wright says that Virgil van Dijk is very fast, however, he rarely shows it. The Liverpool midfielder is among the fastest players in the Premier League, but his speed is not always visible. Speaking on the Wrighty’s House Podcast, the pundit has discussed van Dijk's pace.

“It was really cool, I watched Virgil van Dijk live the other day." Wright claimed.   "Watching him being as quick as he is, because he is quick, he’s lost hardly anything, being as quick as he is and he still doesn’t do that thing where he goes ‘I’m quicker than him, so I’m fine’.   "He’s still doing everything where he gets in and then if anything happens he’ll use his pace.   "He drops off, against Virgil with his pace you need more, when I played against Cannavaro who was the best, players like this aren’t looking at what you’re doing, they’re looking at what the midfielders are doing."
