Virgil van Dijk

Yeah thanks for sharing that, Buzzo.

The specialist knee surgeon in that says it’s usually 9 months to return to full strength and the knee can still be vulnerable before that point.

The Euros will kick off at just over 7 and a half months since his injury.

No probs mate. I ended up with this sub because I forgot to end it after the trial period ended so I am glad to share!

i'll send you 5 balls

Has there been any news on Gomez’ recovery? Nice to see he’s still alive at least.

[Scratch]

Was there any news on what Gomez's injury was, apart from collapsing in training with the international team?

Ruptured patella tendon. Serious injury and a tough one to come back from.

The Dutch should be looking toward having Virgil available for the World Cup rather than worrying about the Euros.

[Buzzo]

The big fella is looking awesome here.

No lockdown gut for big Virg.

Hopeless deadlifts. May as well not bother haha.
He is looking good. Dare we believe he may be back before too long.

Must be demoralising as **** to be walking back in after thrashing it out on the training ground trying to reinvent 4-3-3 formations on the back of our 9 league defeat in a row, only to then see an apparently injured Virgil pushing 5 ton weights about without even breaking sweat.

[Roboklopp]

Romanian DLs innit.

Pussy pad on his squats tho, WTF.

Looks like Romanian deadlifts. He'll be working on strengthening his hamstrings.

Gomez was doing squats the other day and was half repping them though

Wish I could go the gym

[Roboklopp]

Half reps have their place it done correctly- ie for rehab or as part of a wide programme including full ROM. If Big Z uses them I’m not gonna argue.

I have my own gym
