Roy Keane Delivers Scathing Virgil Van Dijk Assessment with Liverpool Claim - 'What Are You Doing'

On Sunday, Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane criticised Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk after the Reds' 2-1 Anfield defeat, saying, `When you're a centre half and you're a big player... I'd be looking at him and asking 'what are you doing'?`
With defensive errors mounting, Keane argued Liverpool's downturn stems from Van Dijk's lapses as centre half, saying he must shoulder more responsibility amid sloppiness in decision-making.
Mistiming a tackle, Virgil van Dijk collided with Alexis Mac Allister before Bryan Mbeumo's opener, while Cody Gakpo equalised and Harry Maguire scored late.
The loss leaves Liverpool fourth in the Premier League, and Keane said the Reds are forcing things through nerves, with sloppiness in decision-making costing the team.
Next up is a trip to Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday, and Virgil van Dijk said Liverpool were far too rushed and failed to convert chances.
