I wonder if it’s exactly the one Van Dijk wore when we beat them 3:1 at Allianz. If I remember correctly, that was the kit the team wore that night.
Always wondered what they did with them
You’re right. I was there.
So it’s either match worn by Virgil or Virgil gave him a replacement after the match.
When did these awards start being given out so late? I read this morning that Foden has only today been announced as last season’s PFA’s player of the year (is this what we used to call the players’ player of the year?)
“Van Dijk doesn’t have the longevity to be considered the greatest Premier League centre-back.”
PL appearances:
Van Dijk - 267
Kompany - 265
Adams - 255
Vidic - 211
Desailly - 158
Carvalho - 135
Dias - 120
Stam - 79
And basically lost a whole season through injury, too.
Suspended for the match against Germany.
