That 2 v 1 against spurs, was the best defending I've ever seen....

The pro's know, This man is not just another good defender, he's much more... He's got tremendous ball composure for a tall guy, and great vision for a defender, packed with a great leg for shooting and passing . Which makes him worthy everything spent!

His pace is most underrated

He got everything, good pass , pace, defence and attack

I’ve seen Ramos , Maldini , Nesta , Cannavaro , John Terry , Vidic and Carlos Puyol play .. but Van Dijk is in a class of his own.

Best defender in the world

He can score, run, assist abd defend. He just too amazing. Big fan

After his hard injury a year ago Liverpool had no chance anymore to be the champion. His comeback was difficult but very impressive. He is a really champion.

Pure class, Rolls Royce defending and more than the text book. A piece of arts!

Him screaming "Mine" must be a nightmare for the keeper. What a player!

Watching this man defend is a literal work of art. The calm demeanor that he goes about his business is truly magnificent to watch. In the right place at the right time, every time. Attackers who haven't faced him before think they can beat him for pace...you can't - he is likely faster than most strikers in a sprint, though he will never even need to show it!

A true legend gamechanger of Liverpool. What a talent !!!

how on earth Maguire is more expensive than him

He's quicker than he looks because of the length of his stride and he's probably one of the strongest defenders around

I don't understand why they didn't gave him the ballon d'or. He totally deserve one. I don't care about the other defenders in the past, he is the best I've even seen in football history. If he hadn't been injury, he probably be unbeatable.

I'm so glad we have VVD in our team and Pickford should still be in prison for that horrendous tackle last year

You hardly ever see VVD sprinting full speed, it´s rarely necessary for him. I haven´t actually lately checked the yellow card number, but it seems he almost never gets a card either. We just couldn´t have bought a better defender. Also, at the time, he had choices, plenty of clubs after him, some in much better position as Liverpool then, but he chose us, the Liverpool extended family. After the injury he was happy to extend his contract, as he felt the club and fans supported him fully even through rough patch. We have such a strong squad now, but still, VVD is the one who´d be missed the most, even over Mo and Alisson now that Kelleher seem so good. Fabinho being the next most important... But that is now very difficult comparison, it´s more about what we can replace a player with. This also changes during the season to some extent, but if I had to choose ONE player to stay fit and uninjured for a whole season, that would be VVD. Matip has been great, I hope Gomez can get back to his best, and Konate is just going to be VVD the next generation, for a beast he is already. Learning from VVD, getting experience, he will be among the greats of Liverpool CD´s. Just staying free of big injuries and sky´s the limit for him.

Best defender in the world 🔴💪🪨 Thank you for your amazing videos ❤️

Literally the best defender we have seen in years

Im not into football but seeing VDD defending like a god it gives me goosebumps everytime he defends.

the only think im surprised about, is that Celtic was the only team to take him, the raw talent was there for the world to see, best defender since Bobby Moore

Just one of the best defenders 2021 who assists and scores, glad he is Dutch...

That's why van djik's the G.O.A.T

I can’t believe Van Dijk has such a damm pace, so unnoticed

He is quite simply unreal that tackle vs West Ham and the defending vs Spurs 🤤he’s like this every game to

1:15 "To be a good defender in 2 V 1 situations you must watch Virgil Van Dijk" - Gary Neville

he must be one of the most intelligent defenders out there, eyes always on the ball and can always calculate his pace very precisely

I'm sure Mané didn't know how good he was until he played against him. Now seeing him in Liverpool's defence, he'll be like "Thank God he came over.". Having such pace for a player that big, spells a perfect definition of Virgil Van Rolls Royce.

VVD❤️

Amazing passer, with a CRAZY vision, whilst being a defender. Impressive finishing and heading, PERFECTLY timed tackles, perfect pace and acceleration, very intelligent. In his prime, I would pick this man over any defender ever

Best centre half in the world 🔥🔥🔥

Que jugador!! Y que hombre por dios

VVD is a scaaaary dude to have to face regardless of where you play on the pitch lmao. Liverpool's scouting is top tier.

No doubt,,,,THE BEST THE ONE AND ONLY,VIRGIL VAN DIJK!

His defence Vs mbappe is the best I have ever seen in football history

One of the best prime defenders in Fotball History

Best defender for the past 3 years imo

Always calm n scan d movement of opponent then will do his job.... Dats Van Djik.... YNWA

Virgil van dijk Is what you call a complete defender❤️😌💯

Blue Tiempo Legend 7 Van Dijk was a beast 🔥🔥🔥

the best of current defenders and also a true gentleman

Hes just a special defender, an incredible player

He so calm and his composure in situations that would make other defenders panic is magnifico

The goal vs Bayern is crazy. He won vs Hummuls and Martinez the 2 tall wall, amazing!

His pace is actually amazing in real life, i saw him once beating Mo Salah and Mane in a race for a loose ball.

he always put in his best💯

Beast

Fantastic player and wonderful human being .

An inspiration to all

i love this video. no music form no where and show us full section and with replay

Nesta reborn. That unbelievably clean tackle, the intelligence to always do not just the right thing, but something even better, the attacking skill and pass where you wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly went and played midfielder. And those exploding knees, just so attackers can have a chance to score again :D

i am an Everton supporter but Virgil Van Dijk is the best centre half in the English Premiership by far and this is my opinion but i also think he is the best centre half in the world as well

After watching maguire's video & turn to this guy is like REFRESHING ON A BEAUTIFUL ISLAND AFTER DROWNING AT SEA!!!!

How calm he in one v one is 🔥

The "Rock"Van Dijk, awesome defending.

Van dijk IS best😘⚽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Absolute Rolls Royce❤💯 My Defender❗👏

What a player 🔥

What a Player !!!

Well.....All i can say is we at Celtic were proud and lucky to have this man for 2 seasons....A Rolls Royce of a defender ...(Nearly as good as Harry McGuire..lol)....The guy was even scoring free kicks for us...Always destined to be the best...Well done Big Virgil...YNWA

Defending master andheadache of attacker's attacker's pace + for scoring and his brain + pace for defend master of center back God gift proud of you my best cb

He's legend.

He is so elegant, fast, smart that he is almost gliding on the pitch

One of the best ever defenders

Yes best

Calmest defender I've seen. There may be others I dunno about. But this one, I know.. I dunno if it's his presence that knocks them off ideas while coming at him with the ball or his instincts. Man's good. 75m was a good bargain.

3:30, the control and finish are more impressive than the assist HOOOOOOOOOLY

Virgil gives out THE BIG BRO THAT YOU LOOK UPTO VIBES

Am not Dutch, I just love football and Virgil Van Dijk is the best central defender of the world.

Nice video 👍👍👍

Absolute Beast❤

Virgil: what a player!

GOAT...... Not even a question , think of your fave italian legend cb and compare him to Virgil.....Virgil streets ahead.

How abt 20 times H. Maguire shocked the world 😃😂

Im not fan of liverpool but i admire vvd. But come on man saying that vvd is better than maldini, nesta , ramos or other great depender is too much tbh. He is great and on his way to those player.

Van Dijk is a phenomenal body character I never seen like such in football tho it reminds of how Juan Martín del Potro and Craig Mottram resist to control their body when speeding, Van with that body size it requires a huge amout of strength or we should say a might to control that body like that especially when accelerating.

Já vem bem-vindo Van Dijk Flamengo forte 🔴⚫💥💥💥💪🏻

Any young defender whose watching this at home your 2v1 U must watch Virgil Van dijk Garry sums it up perfectly 👌🏻

His pace is amazing

For me he is the best defender Liverpool has ever signed!!

The best.

Happy Birthday Virgil van dijk 🎉🎉🎉

Defend against Mbappe was BRILLIANT

the 1v1 with mbappe was so calm of him.. OMYYY

People don't get him to much credit, because Virgil is the kind of defender that aniquilates the attack even before it starts.... Since is not a direct contact or disarm with the ball, most people will say that Sergio Ramos, Nesta and players like that are better than him... But trust me, Virgil is always there, the way how he predicts other player movements is top tier in the football Is just a shame that netherlands is not that great anymore, i'm sure they would go places with Virgil there

please update and add the chest bump to the Argentine player launching him off to another galaxy

He always does it

Mané was like, if we can’t beat him we’ll buy him

I love you Virgil

he is my hero

can you include some dutch national team clips next time?

That Sprint agaunst Chelsea was fuckin unbelievable

As big as Halaand was, he still got to know there was someone bigger and equally as fast as he is.

Best cb

Best defend of the world right now

Best in the world

Best defender off the world and scores goals #Gladiator

Mi ídolo

funny to see how Virgil and Mane were playing against each other and now in the same team.

Vvd cost £75million now worth £100 million +, maguire cost utd £80 million now worth £25 million . Thank god for Virgil
