Captain insists Liverpool are not complacent at this point in the season.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk insists there is no point in getting carried away at this point in the season after the Reds beat Manchester City 2-0 at home sportonline.

The victory means the Reds are 11 points clear of defending champions City and are joint-nine points clear of second-placed Arsenal and Chelsea after 13 games UFABET 

“I think City are a fantastic team, they’ve won four in a row. They have the quality to punish any team. But I thought we defend very solidly and had a lot of chances to score. We could have scored more,” Van Dijk said.

“It was a good game, we won and we will move on.”

“We are focus on the next game, that’s the only thing we can do. There’s no point in getting carried away at this point in the season. Of course, everyone wants to be in a position where they are 11 points above the opposition, but there are a lot of twists and turns. Unfortunately, we have had injuries in the squad and we have to deal with that.”

Van Dijk’s contract with Liverpool expires at the end of June 2025 and talks over a new deal are ongoing. With the Reds clear of the desire to keep Van Dijk as one of their most important players.
