Jamie Carragher is totally wrong - Virgil Van Dijk isn’t even close to being the best centre half of the Premier League era.

VVD is quicker, better on the ball & in the air than both & doesn’t play alongside a Vidic or Carvalho! The strikers you mention are better than todays but a lot of those give the two lads a few problems, no one give VVD a problem. They were two great CB’s but as I’ve said this isn’t close Tory.

@Carra23 "im not sure anyone has ever been more wrong about anything" says rory jennings

@Carra23 Same guy who said Haaland will be a flop by the way. Enough said.

@Carra23 This is worse than your Salah opinion.

Football changes, get over it. Van Dijk is absolutely in the conversation. By the way Rio isn't even the best Man Utd defender ever; Vidic and Stam were both better. Ironically Stam has also said that VVD is the best prem defender ever and I would take his opinion any day of the week.

@Carra23 Did you forget Harry Kane played in the league? Scored more than all them players you mentioned

@Carra23 VVD is the best CB in Premier history, and it's not even close!

@Carra23 The problem with the “who does he play against” argument is that you could just as easily make the argument that the high line Van Dijk plays in is much more difficult for a centre back than the systems Terry and Rio played in

@Carra23 Make it sound like he hasn’t played Aguero, Kane, Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez, Mbappe, Cavani, Griezmann etc etc etc. Teams set up differently now; wingers are just as much of a threat as centre forwards, which never used to be the case. It’s a fundamentally flawed argument.

@Carra23 Rory mate you’re a fucking idiot when nostalgia takes over
