Might be a bit of a reach there? Is he a top DC? Absolutely but the best in the world is a tough call, he's still got room for improvement and I'd wager a fair few other teams would love to have him on current form but it would be a difficult one to say the "best in the world"
And I won't list others as it's objective and agree it's down to an individuals choice so I can't say your wrong, just imo mate
My concern is that we have two top class centre backs, how long before Real, Barca or City come calling?
We are building a good side and cannot afford to disrupt the team by losing top players. The only way to keep them happy will be getting back in the CL.
According to stats, he’s up there with the very best!
Frightening pace and a monster of tackles!!
Just need a keeper who can poleaxe opposition with a nice punch! let’s see if refs given them as fouls

Fair call there if honest most teams other than a very few will lose players who are doing well whether or not they want to?
If he keeps this form up that COULD happen but aid assume the price would be astronomical
I’m not on the wind up here as he’s clearly a very good player, but the very best don’t have to make goal saving tackles 10 times a game. Can never imagine Maldini doing that.
It’s the same reason why Wan Bissaka annoys me. He’s great at sliding tackles but the fact he has to make them is a problem.
Best defenders don't need to make continuous goal saving tackles.

So why Van Dyke does it?
What a stupid statement!
Best defenders tackle as many times as needed and never miss a tackle. If they need to tackle a lot is because the team is probably under pressure from the oppositiona and the defender is doing his job by tackling when needed
Clueless
No. He has played less than 20 games in the prem lol and we are conceding two a game. Not his fault but this is a wild take. To be expected....

VDV looks like a top quality CB, Kash isn’t wrong though.

VDV is class end of and we are lucky to have him. We should all enjoy him while we got him too.
Recovery speed man city could use when Walkers gone.

I missed that game.
So if it wasn't for VDV Spurs would have lost that game 12-2.
After all, he made 10 goal saving tackles, add the two they conceded anyway and that's 12. Spurs must have been really sheet.
No he’s not even close.
Spurs suicidal tactics put their defence and goalkeeper in ridiculous situations that makes your defenders look better than they are as individuals for getting out of those situations.
It’s the same thing that got so much hype for Vicario earlier this season. But now that he’s being asked to do the basics a lot more he has starting to become exposed
Delusion at it's best. He is not even top 20 in the league. Only good thing he has is 'He is fast for his height".

Easy
Van Dijk, Konate, Thiago Silva, Gabriel, Saliba, Dias, Ake, Akanji, Gvardiol, Martinez, Varane, Botman, Schaar, Torres, Konsa, Zouma, Dunk, Guehi, Anderson, Branthwaite

Still, WE’RE very happy with him, and that’s the main thing.
