Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk reflected on the disappointment of crashing out of Europe.
The Reds have seen their dreams of winning a final European trophy under Jurgen Klopp dashed.
After trailing Atalanta 3-0 from the home leg, the Reds could only manage a 1-0 win in Italy.
Speaking to TNT Sports afterwards, Van Dijk stated: “Firstly, credit to Atalanta.
“The damage was done last week [when] we were very poor and they had the perfect game. They deserve to go through. We made it far too difficult for ourselves with the result last week.
“Today was a good game, great fight. Obviously we won but it doesn't feel like it really. Obviously it's an improvement, but the reality is that we are out and we have to quickly turn this around, recover and travel to London on Saturday.
“We need everyone for that last push, and that's the feeling that I'm getting now."

You did not show any fight. You guys chickened out like frightened kids. I would have given the captain's armband to Robertson and not Van Dijk

To talk nonsense about your players; who fight on all the front of the four cups; and went through up to the third round; and in Atalanta they win a team which beats them at Annfield 3 goals to neal; at home they was supposed at least the smallest the home land to make it a draw but Liverpool won it. Me I just say YWN Liverpool am going in the UCL 2024---2025; we have so many who put alot of money but are outside of UCL league next year 2024 --2025; but they love it; But me am there.

it's only a fool that always fights without results
Best fools with no results are in which team? Liverpool or Manchester United? Answer your self, is up to you know your self.

three matches and not a goal from open play just a penalty to show very bad for our standards and the goal keeper was too busy killing the game too many back passe s and keep playing Salah out of the game

The most disappointing Liverpool match I ever come across the goalkeeper is on the ball for longer period whenever he is in a position and he has the highest touches behind konate. honestly it was a big disappointem.
True. that was NOT Liverpool football speclly the home game 😩

no they didn't, they was no Liverpool spirit in the team. In the second half they was zero intensity just backward passes that's why Alison had so many touches it was embarrassing to watch us play like Manchester united 🤦🏽♂️
