Brentford striker Ivan Toney has snubbed Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk as the toughest defender he faced this season in the Premier League - but does say he is one of the best.
Toney netted 20 goals in the English top-flight as the Bees continued to fly high under Thomas Frank. Brentford overcame Liverpool in their home fixture against the Reds, who then avenged that 3-1 defeat with one of seven straight victories at the end of the season.
Toney didn't net against Liverpool No.1 Alisson during the campaign and hasn't score in any of his last three clashes against the Anfield side. It would likely be a dream come true for the 27-year-old to score against Liverpool after supporting the six-time European Cup winners growing up.
