Many Liverpool fans have been reacting to Virgil van Dijk’s recent tweet, in which he responds to a post from Jordan Henderson. The club’s captain shared an image of himself in training with the caption ‘Soon’ and it appears the Dutch central-defender is on the same page as the former Sunderland man.
The Premier League is working towards a return next month with a vote scheduled for today in regards to group training – and therefore, it may not be long before the Liverpool players are reunited.
Here is how some of the supporters have responded to Van Dijk’s post.

What do we think?
Liverpool are just two victories away from wrapping up their first league title since the 1989/90 season, so you can understand why the fans are desperate to see their heroes back in action.
Van Dijk has averaged a performance rating of 7.4/10 in the Premier League season (via WhoScored.com). Jordan Henderson has also been key to the Reds’ success this season, boasting an impressive average rating of 7.2/10 and given the response of these supporters, it’s clear the fans have enjoyed seeing this key pair express their desire to return to the pitch.
