Van Dijk: My Family Life Key To Form

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk says a good family life is key to his form.

Van Dijk is back to his best this season after recovering from knee surgery.

He told De Telegraaf: “I have set the bar high myself.

“When you’re on the pitch, everyone thinks you’re 100 per cent and I understand that.

“Whether you have been ill or were out for a year due to a serious injury does not count for the outside world.

“You’ve won all those awards and so that’s become the standard. I do my very best at this club and try to play the best match I can play every week.

“There are certainly times when it could have been better.

“But I am human and everyone makes mistakes.

“I know that I do everything I can to stay at the top level, but we live in an age when everyone has an opinion, especially on social media.

“That can have an impact on your well-being. You can easily go under.

“Football is super important in my life, but there is still something above.

“That’s my family. As long as there’s nothing wrong with them, I can manage everything else well.”
