Virgil van Dijk voted Standard Chartered Men's Player of the Month

Virgil van Dijk has won Liverpool's Standard Chartered Men's Player of the Month award for February.

The No.4's outstanding form has seen him claim the prize by edging out Luis Diaz in a vote by fans and Forever Reds, the club's official former players association.

Van Dijk started all seven of the Reds' fixtures in the month, helping the backline record five clean sheets and concede just two goals in that spell.

Having scored a header against Leeds United at Anfield, the centre-half then delivered a Player of the Match display in the Carabao Cup final, where he scored a penalty in the 11-10 shootout victory over Chelsea.
