Liverpool 2007 Champions League final team vs the 2018 finalists: A combined XI

The sensational Mo Salah

Right Forward: Mohamed Salah

Mohamed Salah has had one of the best individual seasons of any Liverpool player ever and has a chance to top it all off with the Champions League title. He also has a chance to dethrone the dominant Ronaldo and Messi and claim the Ballon d'Or this year and a victory in Kiev could greatly boost his chances.

His pace, dribbling and finishing strike fear into the hearts of defenders and in our combined XI would probably be even better playing in front of the likes of Gerrard and Alonso.

Center Forward: Roberto Firmino

Bobby leads the attack

Liverpool started the Champions League final with Dirk Kuyt as the center forward, though, he switched to a wider role later in his Liverpool player. The hardworking and energetic Dutchman is, however, kept out of this lineup by Roberto Firmino, who has proved to be just as hardworking and energetic.

Firmino defends from the front and is brilliant at tackling and tracking back. He also showcases his Brazilian flair with some wonderful skills and innovative finishing in front of goal. He is great at linking up play and assisting his teammates in the final third and is also a clinical finisher himself; the complete package.

Left Forward: Sadio Mane

Sadio Mane in full flight

Completing the forward line is the final member of the 'Fab three', Sadio Mane. Mane has had a terrific season notching 9 goals in the Champions League. His pace, link up play and clinical finishing has made him one of the best in Europe.

He has also played in an attacking midfield role and is equally adept on the right side of the attack. The Senegalese international has been a revelation since signing for Liverpool and beats out Bolo Zenden for the final spot in our combined XI.
