Liverpool’s record at Anfield In the Premier League since van Dijk’s debut for the club

Virgil van Dijk is a priceless player for Liverpool. The Reds maintained top spot in the Premier League with an emphatic 5-0 victory over Watford at Anfield, with several candidates for Man of the Match. Van Dijk deserves to be that man.  Dominated the physical battle with Troy Deeney and was imperious in the air as ever, winning countless headers and making several well times challenges, including a smart tackle on Deulofeu on the counter-attack in the second half. Virgil capped off his display emphatically with a second-half brace with two thumping headers in front of the Kop, taking his tally up to three goals for the season. Liverpool have lacked goals from defenders this season and Van Dijk certainly has the ability to chip in more regularly on the evidence.
