Van Dijk: It's too negative to say Liverpool will 'just' win the Premier League

The Dutch centre back thinks only focusing on his side's domestic run doesn't reflect their achievements during an incredible season

Virgil van Dijk came out strongly in defence of Liverpool after their 2-0 defeat to Chelsea, saying the Reds' season cannot be boiled down to "just" winning the Premier League.

Liverpool were knocked out of the FA Cup on Tuesday, but there is a seemingly inevitable Premier League title to come in the near future.

Jurgen Klopp's side have lost three of their last four games in all competitions but they still have a 22-point lead at the top of the Premier League after dropping points in just two games this season.
