🚨 Van Dijk: “In England we believe the schedules are too busy. The players are getting paid well but it should never come at the cost of our health”.
“We keep having to play more and more games. We as players should start saying something about it, contribute to a solution”.

Van Dijk is actually raising an important point about player welfare. With the demanding schedules, player health can be at risk and a balance between entertainment and athlete well-being is very important

Football mirrors the British workplace driven into the ground until you fall sick VanDijk took 8 months out with full pay 6 months is usually the maximum. Liverpool fan but it's hard to galvanise sympathy.
