Their inspirational centre-half Virgil van Dijk was voted Player of the Season by his fellow PFA professionals. Wing-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson joined the above in the team of the season and were instrumental in the style of play that had the whole of Anfield on their feet.
Their charismatic manager Jurgen Klopp wrote the foreword was equally relived and euphoric to have ended the campaign with a trophy: ” It’s been an unbelievable season. This team is one of the best to have ever played for Liverpool, 100%. “
