It's been five years since Virgil van Dijk made his debut for Liverpool. He was signed for £75m from Southampton. Van Diktijk quickly established himself as a key member of the dressing room. The Dutchman was instrumental in the progression of Liverpool's team. They won the Champions League and the Premier League the following season. The goalkeeper Loris Karius cost them the final. Alisson joined from Roma in summer. It's a perfect spine of Jurgen Klopp's side. His calmness under pressure is his standout quality. For many, he's the best centre-back in world.
