Van Dijk’s showing provoked a strong reaction from Man United fans

Liverpool went into half-time of their FA Cup fourth-round tie trailing West Brom.

The Baggies took a 3-1 lead into the break, after coming from behind to leave Anfield stunned. Roberto Firmino opened the scoring after just six minutes, netting with a deft lob over Ben Foster. However, a minute later, West Brom were level. Jay Rodriguez buried a first-time shot from the edge of the penalty area past Simon Mignolet. https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/957341628330491904 After 11 minutes, it was 2-1 to the visitors - Rodriguez got his second of the night. https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/957342601715200000 VAR cancelled out a third goal for West Brom... https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/957345319540404225 And Firmino missed a penalty in a frantic and entertaining first-half... https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/957346603269943296 Which ended with West Brom leading 3-1. Joel Matip scored an own-goal, just before the half-time whistle. Manchester United fans enjoyed what they were seeing, with many of them taking pleasure in witnessing Vigil van Dijk struggle. The Liverpool defender may have cost £75m from Southampton, but he can't solve the team's defensive problems on his own. As the first-half against West Brom proved, these issues don't start and end with one individual player. Liverpool did notch one back through Salah, but it wasn't enough for the Reds. They lost 3-2. https://twitter.com/NickMiller79/status/957342254548619265 Yet, this was inevitable. In fact, for the rest of the season, each time Liverpool concede a goal, you'll see this reaction. United fans, confident that they have never witnessed an expensive signing play poorly for their team, laid into Van Dijk. https://twitter.com/UtdOliver/status/957341337090699271 https://twitter.com/FootBoIa/status/957342799149584384 https://twitter.com/TheManUtdWay/status/957342189163597824 https://twitter.com/keefyw/status/957341975547609088 https://twitter.com/utdxtra/status/957343669182443522 https://twitter.com/Mufc_Sarah/status/957342809044017152 https://twitter.com/AlexisRole/status/957342220545417221
