Virgil van Dijk believes Liverpool could still overhaul Arsenal to win the Premier League, despite being 15 points behind the runaway leaders.
Liverpool are sixth in the Premier League going into their next match against Brentford on Monday. Jurgen Klopp’s side have picked up just 28 points from their opening 16 matches and are way behind the Gunners, who have lost only once all season.
That chasm does not phase Van Dijk, however. He has been fired up by Netherlands’ quarter-final penalties defeat by Argentina at the World Cup and reckons the unique nature of this season - which was sliced in half to accommodate the winter tournament in Qatar - could play into Liverpool’s hands.
