Piddo:
There's a big difference between running with the ball as a striker and chasing a striker running with the ball.

Are they running with the ball stuck to their feet or do they hit and chase?
No difference to me.

Hmmmmm how right is this stat?

Meanwhile.....Yes van dijk had a good season but we are over hyping now.

Especially with that no player have passed him from beginning of last season. Yes no player passed him but they should add he fouled players and even caused penalty sometimes. They should stop making it look like no player passed him and he collects the ball without any foul grin grin grin grin
. Another Barca fan... continue...

I just pray he can keep the streak. Focus at times can be difficult for players after all the hype. We're humans afterall.

Pained Barca fan
In fact, there are so many pained Barca fans. This is what happens when Messi and co score nothing and instead swallow 3 or 4 goals in a return leg 2 years in a row shocked grin

His pace was determined by the distance he covered per time not his acceleration.... ... he might took few steps per second but covered large metres not always quick succession steps with lesser distances

Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk has been revealed as the fastest player in the 2018-19 Champions League season campaign, MySportDab reports.

The Dutch defender outpaced the likes of Gareth Bale and Leroy Sane and even his own rapid teammates Mohamed Salah And Sadio Mane with a top speed of 34.5km per hour.

PSG Star Kylian Mbappe didn't even manage to make the top five but Bale, even despite a lack of games this season, landed fifth spot for a sprint in a Real match against Roma.

Bale reached 33.8 KM/H during the game but that was pipped by Man City defender Kyle Walker, who hit 34.2 KM/H for the Blues against Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Van Dijk, who was instrumental in helping Liverpool to secure the European Cup in the heart of defence, was ranked first ahead of some of Europe's most attacking threats.

The centre-back's fastest sprint came against Barcelona at the Camp Nou when the hosts went bursting forward on a counter-attack after a Reds corner in the 92nd minute.

Top Five Fastest Champions League Players Of 2018/19 - MySportDab:

5. Gareth Bale (Real Madrid) - 33.8 km/h

3. Kyle Walker (Manchester City) - 34.2km/h

3. Nemanja Radonjic (Red Star Belgrade) - 34.2km/h

2. Leroy Sane (Manchester City) - 34.4km/h

1. Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) -34.5km/h
