Some Liverpool fans on social media have been reacting to a video of Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk playing a Pictionary-style game.

The video is generally quite funny, but there was one moment in particular that had some Liverpool fans worried.

Indeed, as ridiculous as it sounds, some Liverpool fans were genuinely concerned about how quickly van Dijk stood up off of his seat due to his ongoing injury problems.

To be fair, we can understand where they’re coming from, van Dijk did spring to his feet and he could have jarred his knee if he lost his balance, but we can’t help but find it a little bit crazy that fans are analysing his every movement to such a degree.

Perhaps this just shows how much Liverpool fans are worried about being without van Dijk for a longer period than necessary.

Of course, alongside all of the worry and anguish, you had some Liverpool fans who were genuinely sad watching a video of Gomez and van Dijk.

The pair have been missing pretty much all season, so to see them both together wearing their kits is something of a rare sight these days, and it had some Liverpool fans feeling a little bit emotional.
