Virgil van Dijk has described the best way Liverpool have allowed the season to finish as unacceptable and admitted they don’t should win the Premier League.
Simply over a month in the past Liverpool have been chasing an unprecedented however unlikely quadruple however every week after exiting Europe their Premier League title hopes have been left in tatters after a 2-0 defeat at Everton.
Jürgen Klopp’s ultimate season is more likely to finish with solely the Carabao Cup and Van Dijk criticised an absence of urge for food to pull issues again of their favour.
“Video games likes these, the naked minimal is struggle,” the captain mentioned, reflecting on the derby. “We have been missing that at so many moments in video games. When you play like we did, clearly even when we create two or three clearcut possibilities once more, you don’t should win the league.
“It’s crunch time and we’ve not been adequate in the best way we completed the possibilities off, in the best way we defended collectively and in addition the struggle. I feel we’ve got to indicate way more. However we’ve got to look within the mirror and every considered one of us has to suppose like: ‘Hear, you may’t settle for this. You may’t settle for the best way we let our season finish.’”
Liverpool haven’t been enjoying nicely for a few months and though they’ve pulled a number of outcomes out of the hearth they’ve uncharacteristically crumbled on the key time.
“It’s a mixture of the whole lot,” Van Dijk mentioned. “You may’t put a finger on it. It’s confidence, inexperience, challenges, perhaps afraid to make errors on this a part of the season. I don’t know … We’ve got to stay collectively. We are able to’t have teams blaming one another.”
