Despite missing two games this season due to a suspension, Van Dijk has enjoyed an unbeaten start as Liverpool sit second in the Premier League, just two points adrift of leaders Manchester City.<\/p>\n<p>While it was a season to forget for Liverpool in the last campaign where they missed out on Champions League football, a 7-0 victory over Manchester United was the highlight of fans in an otherwise disappointing year for the club. The Netherlands international certainly hasn&apos;t forgotten the monumental result and made sure to remind presenter Harry Pinero of the drubbing his team was handed.<\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: Alexis Mac Allister says two Liverpool players are stronger than Virgil van Dijk<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: Liverpool could have Mo Salah replacement join Man Utd despite \u00a3164m deal<\/b><\/p>\n<p>During an appearance on Pro:Direct Soccer&apos;s YouTube channel for their &apos;Guess the Song&apos; game, alongside Pinero, a Manchester United fan, Van Dijk led the presenter 7-6 in the scores who exclaimed: &quot;7-6, let&apos;s go!&quot;, before Van Dijk devastatingly responded with: &quot;You like seven, no? Sorry.&quot; His response rendered Pinero speechless before he replied: &quot;You lot call that shade? You like the seven, yeah? That was good, that was good. Well done.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>He went on to tell the 32-year-old: &quot;That was one of the worst days of my life and you were responsible for that&quot; as the Reds captain, while laughing, told him: &quot;I tried my best&quot;. The brutal jab by the defender was praised by some on social media as one fan wrote: &quot;Trolling is an art and Virgil van Dijk has learnt it all&quot; while there were some that didn&apos;t appreciate his words as one United fan commented: &quot;They play in the Europa League&#8230;.we play in the champions League&#8230;. levels&quot;.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Will Virgil van Dijk lead Liverpool to the Premier League title this season?
