Virgil van Dijk was in a mischievous mood after Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Arsenal as he mocked Mikel Arteta's injury crisis at the Gunners with a sly dig after the game
Virgil van Dijk couldn't resist a swipe at Arsenal's supposed injury woes, remarking that they 'only had two' sidelined despite Mikel Arteta hinting at a crisis earlier in the week. Arsenal were down five key players before their Champions League triumph over Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday, with Riccardo Calafiori later joining the casualty list during the match, adding to the absences of Bukayo Saka, Jurrien Timber, and Martin Odegaard.
Van Dijk quipped on Sky Sports when questioned if Arsenal's game plan was affected by 'another injury' referring to Gabriel: 'Another player injured? ' He then added with a smirk, 'Well, I think they only had two injuries today didn't they? Obviously they played a very, very strong team.
