Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk hits the nail on the head with his programme notes ahead of Liverpool’s Premier League game with Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday.
One point will seal the Premier League title for the 20th time.
“All season long I have been speaking about the need to focus only on the next game, the next challenge,” said the Dutchman. “That mindset has been so important for us as we have chased our goals. We deal with what’s there in front of us rather than getting carried away with the bigger picture, with the outside noise.
“Sunday, of course, is going to be a little more difficult in that respect. Because while we are still going to be concentrating on the task in front of us, which is a tough game against Tottenham Hotspur, we also know what the day means for everyone associated with the club.
“And, well, it means everything. To win the Premier League is special, however and wherever you do it. But to do it at Anfield, in front of the most incredible supporters in the world? That’s something else entirely. It’s our dream, it’s your dream, and our aim on Sunday is to make sure that dream comes true.”
