“The most important thing is to enjoy it. We have to give it our all and make sure we have no regrets at the end of it,” Van Dijk said. Van Dijk has been so instrumental in Liverpool’s improvement from the side that finished 25 points adrift of City last season, he is being tipped to win the Premier League player of the year awards.

“You hope to be in this kind of position – challenging for the Premier League title, being as far as we are in the Champions League now and reaching the final last season. “I think the ultimate thing would be winning something with Liverpool and we still have any chance to win it. So let’s just go for it.”
