🚨🗣️ Thierry Henry on Virgil van Dijk’s display in the clash between Liverpool and Manchester City. “People are going to get emotional about this, but I don’t care, Virgil van Dijk is living off a reputation he built years ago. Tonight exposed it. When Manchester City turned up the intensity, he didn’t look like a leader… he looked like a liability. We keep hearing ‘world-class, world-class’ based on what? Aura? Because I didn’t see dominance, I saw hesitation. I saw a defender who doesn’t want to get exposed 1v1 anymore. The real top defenders embrace those moments, they don’t hide behind the system. And let’s be honest, if his name wasn’t Van Dijk, we’d be having a very different conversation right now. At Liverpool FC, that standard should be ruthless. But somehow, he keeps getting protected while others get blamed. For me? That performance wasn’t elite. It wasn’t even good. It was average… and average doesn’t win you big games.”







St James park atmosphere was that bad am amazed the the mags players didn’t Boo the fans off

@Capt_Fishpaste I’m not saying Sunderland are a small club, obviously. You are nowhere near as big as Newcastle, but you aren’t small. Us however are one of the biggest clubs in the country, no question about it, end of story and you all know it.

Better than us on the pitch, better than us off the pitch, and better than us in the stands. AGAIN. That’s why it’s so tough to accept. They’ll mock us relentlessly and it’s 100% deserved. Clearer each week that we aren’t what we think we are as a club. Huge reality check.
