Virgill van Dijk issues Manchester City a title warning

Virgil van Dijk told Sky Sports that Liverpool aren’t feeling the pressure as the Premier League leaders and that Manchester City have it all to lose.

Pep Guardiola’s side is looking to win its third consecutive Premier League title but are under severe pressure from Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, with the Reds eight points ahead in the table.

Van Dijk and co. face Manchester United this weekend and despite their recent awful form, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men will put up a stern test for the Anfield outfit.

However, van Dijk is not feeling the pressure and believes Manchester City have it all to lose.

“I don’t think we have anything to lose,” van Dijk told Sky Sports. “Man City are the champions, they’re defending their title and we want to get it. In my point of view, we just have to go for it.

“The pressure gets bigger, but that comes from the media. They love to put more pressure on us and that’s something we have to deal with. I don’t mind because I’m not thinking about what other people say, I just want to win every game that is ahead of me.

“We definitely need to enjoy it [being top of the Premier League] and be full of confidence, especially with the way we’ve got these points, having not had the best games but still getting the wins.”
