I can't help but think that the scousers needed of a leader in defence and that van Dijk will perfectly fit the bill to be honest. We're so low on confidence and lacking on field leadership we could do with a similar boost - but who ? |

I hope you're right, I hope he's a bloody disaster but in all honesty I think he's a cracking young defender, he seems to be really calm on the ball and has the kind of strong leadership qualities that we're crying out for at the moment. |

Keane would have grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and put him there, whilst swapping out Lukaku and Smalling and we'd have kept 2 potentially invaluable points. |

Oh for a natural leader eh? We're crying out for a Martin Buchan, a Bryan Robson or a Roy Keane. |

We used to have 5 or 6 in the team :-( Schmeichel, Bruce, Robson, Ince, Cantona and Hughes would all have prevented those dropped 2 points if they had been on the pitch. |

I appreciate that great players come and go, and yes, I admit that we have been spoiled in the Premier League era. Similarly, I accept that we have no divine right to dominate. But, even accepting this (hopefully temporary) change in our fortunes, what I can't accept is that there isn't a single proper leader of men in our starting eleven and yesterday there wasn't. Not one of them. |
