‘If we want to make something out of this season, then we have to produce something special’ – Liverpool skipper van Dijk | OneFootball

Virgil van Dijk suggested the Liverpool squad must improve their “togetherness” if they are to rescue their season.

It follows their 4-0 thrashing at Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter finals on Saturday.

But Liverpool will have a chance to bounce back when they face PSG in the first leg of their Champions League quarter final on Wednesday.

And van Dijk has urged his team-mates to stick together and believe they can defy the odds by beating the reigning Champions League winners.

“We have a responsibility to ourselves and, especially, to the fans,” he said after the defeat to City. “If we want to make something out of this season, then we have to try and produce something special the next three games.

“I’m trying to think how we can turn this round. We’ve been going through this almost 75 per cent of the season.

“We fall back into games where we get beaten on intensity or beaten on how much you really want to go for it. It’s a difficult one to take and everyone has to look at themselves.

“The matter of fact is now, PSG are waiting for us. I watched them Friday a little bit. It will be so tough again. So we have to be ready mentally as soon as possible.

“I’ve been lucky enough to play for Liverpool for so many years. The main thing we always had was togetherness. Now obviously are in a little bit of a transition we have to find it.

“It’s difficult to perform every two days if you don’t have it consistently.”
