It will not have been clear to all what he meant when he posted three pictures from the match with the caption: ‘I don’t forget…’ The third and final picture was a close up of the gold Premier League badge on the sleeve of Arsenal’s kit.

The gold logo is only worn by the defending champions in a Premier League season. It was a response to Van Dijk doing the same in January after a goalless draw between Arsenal and Liverpool at the Emirates.

Again, it’s a commitment of every single player in every action consistently to deliver those kind of stats and to do it against this team, it’s something remarkable I would say.’ Arrow MORE: Freddie Ljungberg says Man Utd star made him ‘feel sick’ in Chelsea defeat Arrow MORE: ‘Best in the league’ – Jamie Carragher hails Arsenal star after Liverpool win Arrow MORE: Gary Neville slams ‘absolutely embarrassing’ Arsenal star during win over Liverpool
