Virgil van Dijk reveals how Liverpool dressing room feel as Watford end Invincibles charge
Virgil van Dijk has claimed that Liverpool were not thinking of becoming Invincibles as Liverpool lost 3-0 at Watford. It’s a defeat that ends their hopes of matching Arsenal’s feat achieved in 2003/04, but the Reds are still within touching distance of the title.
Speaking after the game, the Dutchman claimed that talk of finishing the season unbeaten was only being driven in the media.
“They did exactly what they wanted to do, we did not. That’s how football works,” he said.
“The first half was a tough one, a lot of second balls, running here and there, we had the ball a lot but we didn’t come in the right positions to cross, the right positions to finish, against a really good, organised side, with a top set-up for this game.
“You have to accept it, it’s not so easy, but it’s the proof we were not good enough tonight.
