There’s a new look about a key area of the team for Liverpool, a changing of the guard enforced by recent events, a previous zone of consistency now faced with uncertainty esports

No, we’re not talking about midfield - that particular switch-up already looks a definite upgrade, even early as it is for such conclusions esports

Instead it’s at left-back the unexpected alteration has occurred, a consequence of Andy Robertson’s need for surgery which means the Scot is out for the rest of the year esports

Having averaged over 44 appearances a season for the Reds since signing in 2017, he’ll now miss at least 17 matches, if best estimates of his return are to be believed esports

That leaves not just a gap for Kostas Tsimikas or an untested youngster to fill tactically, but a void which cannot be accounted for: that of a partnership, of understanding, of the natural, unthinking knowing which comes with playing hundreds of matches alongside a teammate esports

It can be argued that such a changeable nature can be applied not just to the midfield, not even just to left-back, but to the entire defensive structure this term at Anfield: injuries have already hit on the right and centrally too, to go along with the altered personnel ahead of them in the middle third of the pitch esports

All that simply means one truth must be constant if the Reds are to translate early season promise into longer-term capacity to challenge for major honours: Virgil van Dijk must once again prove himself to be among the very best, not just individually as a defender but as a force to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts esports

RecommendedBuild from the front? Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp are repeating an old trickEngland’s Euro 2024 squad: Who’s on the plane, who’s in contention and who has work to do?Virgil van Dijk will show he is Premier League’s best once more – Sami HyypiaThere cannot be much debate that the Dutchman, now club captain at Anfield, has not quite reached the same levels of authoritative performances as he did pre-ACL injury, or at least not on as regular a basis esports

The period which saw Liverpool win both Premier League and Champions League saw Van Dijk at the pinnacle of the game, a central defender without peer, a worthy recipient of the Ballon d’Or itself, had he been handed it instead of a runner-up spot, pipped by seven votes in 2019 by Lionel Messi esports

Perhaps that in itself was a noteworthy award esports

In any case, he’s not quite there these days, not quite the automatic choice among fan or pundit asked to name the world’s finest esports

It’s arguable that there isn’t a single stand-out candidate right now for that particularly subjective title esports

But in asking whether Van Dijk is capable of being the world’s best defender again, part of the answer has to be that it doesn’t really matter esports

He might want to be of course, might already believe he is, but from a team perspective what they really need is Van Dijk’s ability to stabilise the team, to foresee and forestall danger, to order those around him to bring forth resilience from chaos esports

Because chaotic is, still, a little too close to the truth when it comes to spells of defending for Liverpool esports

The midfield is far more creative, far more offensive and energetic, far less reliant on Trent Alexander-Arnold always being at his best esports

But all that comes at a cost: it’s not always the most agile and defensive-first in either recovery or positional terms esports

It’s still new as a group, still needs time to become as cohesive as the best central trios are, on and off the ball esports

And in the meantime, the result can often be large gaps, lost runners, moments of inexplicable choices in possession esports

That leaves a hefty weight on the defence to counteract such moments - the defence and, of course, the still-magnificent Alisson Becker behind them esports

(Getty Images)But before that one-man last line, it’s Van Dijk who must rise once more to ensure unity, if not always outright unison esports

Acting in perfect harmony is difficult enough with four constant selections; as it is this season, Jurgen Klopp has already utilised Jarell Quansah as a fifth-choice, following injuries esports

Alexander-Arnold missed pitch time and is not yet back to his peak physical or technical best esports

Ibrahima Konate and Joel Matip have dovetailed, and now there’s Tsimikas present on a more regular basis - which also means either Joe Gomez will see minutes on the left, or an untried youngster will, with Calum Scanlon and Luke Chambers first in line esports

They presently tally one senior minute esports between them esports

They will all four need guiding for different reasons, all need time, all occasionally get things wrong and need the left-sided centre-back beside them to bail them out esports

No prizes for guessing who that is on a week-to-week basis esports

Because for Liverpool, there are prizes at stake esports

Three points off the top of the Premier League table after a fine opening quarter of the campaign; rolling along nicely in Europe and domestic cups alike esports

esports Between now and the next international break, the opportunities for victory across all competitions are as immense as the potential cost of dropped points: Toulouse twice, Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, Luton, Brentford esports

A modern title-competing team would take six wins with very little fuss, in truth esports

Then, beyond, it’s Manchester City away esports

The most true barometer of where Liverpool are this season, even coming after an international break and in the infamous 12:30pm kick-off spot esports

The margin for error remains almost nil, but with the reigning champions perhaps not quite at their own peak yet, and Klopp’s side having improved more than might have been thought possible at this early stage, thoughts of a title challenge will not be far away - if the defence is kept on-point, even with altered personnel esports

(Getty Images)It all means Van Dijk must be as close to his own 100 percent as possible, even if his 2023/24 maximum level is a little lower than in 19/20 esports

As far as transformative figures go, Van Dijk was one after signing esports

He, as much as anyone else and more than most, sent Liverpool from challengers to champions, in every competition across the board esports

Now once again he must be the leader - literally, given the armband - who enables the Reds to do so, not so much the new figurehead this time but as the standard-bearer, the supplier of consistency, the model of outperformance which can give Liverpool the extra edge they’ll need, both in the Premier League and beyond esports

Ben Youngs enters Test retirement comforted by the belief that England’s future is in safe hands after an encouraging World Cup esports

Youngs made his 127th and last appearance in Friday’s bronze final victory over Argentina and ends his 13-year international career as the nation’s most capped men’s player esports

Courtney Lawes has also confirmed he is bowing out of the Test arena and Jonny May is very likely to follow suit, while Dan Cole and Joe Marler are nearing the end of their time at the top esports

The departure of so many experienced stars – three of them cap centurions – points to an uncertain future, but Youngs believes England can leave the World Cup with confidence esports

“There will still be a lot of guys playing who have vast experience and who will be playing with the guys that will now start learning Test rugby,” the Leicester scrum-half said esports

“We have some really good leaders, some guys who have been there and done it and dragged the others along with us, along with coaches who gave us a really clear plan esports

“It was a plan that suited the team and what we needed right now, which was stripping it back a little bit esports

“Marcus Smith is not inexperienced because he’s got a huge amount of experience for someone of such a young age and he’s now finding playing full-back a little bit different for him esports

There will still be a lot of guys playing who have vast experience and who will be playing with the guys that will now start learning Test rugbyBen Youngs“You’ve got Freddie Steward, Ollie Chessum, George Martin, you’ve got a lot of guys who are going to continue to grow esports

“You then marry that up with the guys like Maro Itoje, Ellis Genge and Jamie George who will still be there esports

“It’s about getting that blend and continuity in the group, and also we’ve got good coaches esports

“And there is that Englishness in us when our backs are against the wall esports

It’s a bit of bloody-mindedness – ‘right boys, we’ve got no option, we’ve got to roll our sleeves up’ esports
