The official announcement that Virgil Van Dyke, Liverpool's Dutch stopper tore the crossbar and is expected to be out until the end of the season has broken the spirits of Mighty Reds fans.
The 28-year-old, who arrived at Anfield about three years ago and was a partner in the club's huge rise, was injured during the derby against Everton on Saturday and will now have to deal with a long rehabilitation.
In a delusional way, the English association decided today (Monday) that Jordan Pickford, the Everton goalkeeper who hit Van Dyke will not be prosecuted despite the horrific tackle he committed.
Pickford did not even receive a yellow card following the move and Liverpool filed a serious complaint against the referee, which apparently reached deaf ears.
Meanwhile, Van Dick posted a post on social media yesterday in which he recounted his feelings and stated that he would do everything to get back on the pitch soon: "I met this afternoon with a counselor to begin my recovery process after yesterday's incident. I am now focused only on my recovery and will do everything to get back "Despite the obvious disappointment, I believe that with difficulty comes opportunity, and with God's help I will make sure I come back better, more capable and stronger than ever."
Van Dyke also wrote: "In football, as in life, I believe that everything has a reason. With the support of my wife, children, family and everyone in Liverpool, I am ready for the challenge in front of me. I want to thank everyone for the messages of support, it helped me a lot, I will now do everything What I can do to support my teammates in any way I can for the upcoming games, and I will try to recover more and more as the days go by. I will be back. "
