Roy Keane blames Virgil van Dijk for 'ALL THREE' Arsenal goals in their 3-1 win over Liverpool… and accuses Reds of 'pub defending' to allow Gunners back into the title race

Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher slammed Virgil van Dijk's defending, blaming him for all three goals as Arsenal beat Liverpool 3-1 at the Emirates on Sunday.

In an important clash in the race for the Premier League title, Arsenal regained the lead when a defensive miscommunication between van Dijk and Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson allowed an easy opportunity for Gabriel Martinelli.

Speaking after the game to Sky Sports, Keane was particularly unimpressed by the performance of van Dijk, so long a stalwart in the heart of the Liverpool backline.
