Van Dijk: Liverpool Will Special This Season

Virgil van Dijk playing season in Liverpool is quite good. Therefore, Van Dijk is determined to achieve something more special this season; champion trophy.

Van Dijk was brought in from Southampton last January with a tag of £ 75 million making him the world's most expensive defender. Van Dijk arrival may be said to have made Liverpool back line better.

Liverpool successfully brought to appear in the Champions League final despite eventually losing to Real Madrid and finishing the top four. He averages one tackle, 1.8 intercept, 0.5 foul, six sweeps, and 0.6 blocks per game.

This slick performance is what Van Dijk wants to keep next season to help Liverpool won a prestigious trophy like Premier League or Champions League that has long been coveted by the fans.

With this summer transfer like Naby Keita, Fabinho, Xherdan Shaqiri, and Alisson, Liverpool are widely praised and regarded as one of the top candidates. But, Van Dijk did not care about it and chose the focus to appear okay from the game to the fight.

"I think (the new players are adaptable) because of all the players and of course the manager and the style of play," said Van Dijk at ESPN.

"Everyone in the club is a big family, everyone can see it from inside and out, it's real. You come here and see it all welcome and want to help you.This makes it easy to adapt," he continued,

"I think the players we're bringing now, all have their own characteristics, it's also very helpful - I think Liverpool have done everything really well I did not tell you about my transfer!

"I think it's going to be a good time for Liverpool players and fans, hopefully we can do something special but we do not want to think too far, we are focused on the moment, working hard and humble."
