A40: ![]() Noob saibot .. my favorites character in mortal Kombat after sub zero .. You dey play p.s?? If you do .. you'd see what van dijk is doing is similar.. it is strategic .. He might be the last defender at those point and would be foolish to just lunge at the opponent to avoid being dribbled past .. Instead he shadow marks him till back up comes or waits for to hit the ball then position himself to block the ball . It help frustrates the opponent at times thereby causing confusing especially when the opponent is just expecting he(vvd) marks him head on so he would just dribble past him .. it is strategic .. Boathand or whatever they calling him, if he has employed this in his defending days no go dey chop grass easily as exposed in the pictures above .. The funny thing is everyone does it .. So I do not know why oga ramdeuter finds it strange ... Even for street sef, we dey do am when we dey play ball for area.. na common thing nw.. 2 Likes |

Silentgroper: Boateng with his style won the world cup and 2 trebles which VVD has not won in his career What VVD does by hiding and showing nyansh for ball will never make him a top defender. Good defenders like Vidic Ramos Carvalho Maldini Nesta are not scared of dribbles and won't be pointing to other defenders to go collect on their behalf, rather they face the situation |

VVD went down for 2 years following his ACL injury. He had no sharpness as you'd expect from someone returning from ACL. His body was too large and he couldn't get close to players This season he is back and one of, or the best defender in EPL with Saliba 1 Like |

raumdeuter:That move is outside the box when everything is inside. I doubt Gabriel would do that. Instead it's either Rice, Odegaard or anyone would offer himself. That just tells how indisciplined and non-chalant Man U were on that day |

raumdeuter: You actually have a point which is that there've been great defenders known not to shy away from robust challenges. But there is something you are missing: Effectiveness. At the end of it all, the hallmark of a great defender is how well he's able to prevent opponents from scoring or creating dangerous situations. It is not necessary that all great defenders have to employ the same style so long as whatever style they adopt is effective. And it isn't a matter of argument that VVD was the EPL's most effective defender between 2018 - 2021. He had some 2-year downtime afterwards due to injury but has come back strongly since 2023 and the results for Liverpool are there for all to see. It doesn't matter that VVD avoids lunging into tackles while Vidic and Nesta are tackling warriors. At the end of the day, they are all elite defenders that have helped their teams challenge and win league and UCL titles. What more evidence do you require? No be only one road enter market. Btw, Boateng no dey VVD's level. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ThierryJay: Effectiveness in that these great defenders do the work themselves and throw themselves into tackles Or effectiveness in pointing others to do the work and you flee from the hardwork. VVD all through his career has been known to run away from dangerous situations while pushing others to do it for him because he knows once he attempts he fails We saw how in the CL final he was trying to avoid Valverde until that one disgraced him You are claiming 2018 to 2021 when it was in October 2020 he was getting disgraced by Aston Villa and they lost 7-2 in one game The results at Liverpool is as a result of Klopps style where he presses high neutralized all attacks and the defence mops up. When it gets to dangerous 1v1 situation it's Konate and Matip who go for those while VVD points. I have seen Klopp for over 15yrs and he achieved the same thing with below average defenders like Hummels Matip and Subotic VVD is a product of hype. We saw how he avoided Sissoko who shot off target and was hailed for making Sisoko shoot off target, when you start seeing intangibles like leadership, communication used to praise a defender know that he is just forming activity Everyone who has played ball before would have encountered one defender thatbwill benforming seniorman for field wey no fit play and whose job will be to shout and point to others to do their jobs Boateng cannot be in VVD level when Boateng won 2 trebles and a world cup. He won a CL and world cup by age 25 as a starter in those defence. What has VVD done close to that at his current age? Pointing will always show up in big games when everyone is busy doing work and marking opponents and no one has time to be protecting a traffic warden defender. Similar to Thiago Silva As much as I don't like John Terry, I can say he is not a pointing defender he does the hard work 1 Like |
