After being asked about the best defender he’s ever played against, Chelsea and Belgium international Eden Hazard was quoted by LiverpoolOffside as saying: “Virgil van Dijk, since last year is one of the best in the world for sure.
“To play against him last Saturday, I can tell he is one of the best and he’s still young also.”
Virgil van Dijk did not feature in his side’s Carabao Cup clash against Chelsea, but did feature for full 90 minutes for his side’s 1-1 draw against the Blues in the Premier League last weekend.
The Dutch center-back, however, is expected to start for Liverpool when they take on Premier League champions, Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday evening.

The Nollywood star, upon realisation, said she had a conversation on the matter with her husband, Olumide Akande.
She made the disclosure during an appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise, where she was asked if her marital status plays a role in her choice of roles.
The actor said: “I consider it (marital status). That’s for sure because certain scenes, roles can cause some friction.
“And I have done some of those roles recently. I did try for a long time to run away from romantic roles, but I was not growing, I wasn’t challenging myself. And I did not want to censure myself any longer.”
The 40-year-old star of ‘Isoken’ also spoke on her decision to take a brief hiatus from filmmaking after her marriage in 2011.
She said: “I wanted to be 100 percent a mom and a wife because I got pregnant quickly after, and that took me away.
“I wanted to really focus and be a mom to my kids. And just when I had the first one, I got pregnant with the second one. By then, I had already started coming back to film. I had shot ‘Journey to Self’, ‘Unconditional Love’.”
Egbuson-Akande, who dropped out of the University of Lagos midway into her degree programme, said she is happy with the paths she has taken in her career and life.
“I am very happy with my choices, I am very happy with the way I came into the industry. It’s been a great run,” said the mother of two

The Frenchman is interested in playing for Barcelona and specifically replacing Iniesta who left the club at the close of last season.

Eric Abidal Barça Sporting director, met with Pogba in Los Angeles last week and discussed a possible move.

The former Juventus midfielder’s relationship with United manager, Jose Mourinho is believed to be increasingly strained, while they have fallen out over the club’s tactical approach.

Manchester United Legend, Sir Alex Ferguson, has told friends he is “worried” that the club he transformed into serial winners are in danger of becoming a circus act, the UK Mirror reports.
Under Ferguson, United not only won 13 Premier League titles and two Champions League gongs, but training ground problems were usually kept in house.
The Scot returned to Old Trafford last Saturday for the first time since suffering a major stroke in May to witness the 1-1 draw with Wolves.
After the game, Ferguson confessed he was worried about the negative publicity surrounding the club. He also believes that bringing Paul Pogba back to the club for a record £89million fee was not a good idea.

Footballer Sterling has endured abuse for years, claims Neville 11/Dec/2018
Former Manchester United and Argentine defender Gary Neville claims Manchester City star Raheem Sterling endured years of "vicious" abuse before the alleged racist slurs directed at him by Chelsea fans on Saturday.
Sterling was subjected to reported racist abuse from Chelsea fans during City's 2-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have suspended four supporters while they continue their investigation into the incident. Gary Neville, who worked with Sterling during his time as assistant to former England boss Roy Hodgson, says the abuse at Chelsea is far from the first time the City winger has taken the brunt of vitriolic public criticism.
Neville revealed Sterling approached him for advice during Euro 2016 when abuse from fans and media for his poor performances became too much for him to take.
"He came to see me one-on-one in 2016, I think it was three or four days before the Iceland game," Neville said on Sky Sport's Monday Night Football.
"Before the tournament, he was getting so much stick. We were aware of that as a coaching staff that fans were on to him, media were on to him.
"It then continued into the stadium, to the point where there were boos and groans.
"He accepted that he would get criticism playing for England, he accepted he would get scrutinised as an England player, he didn't want any special treatment.
