#1 Virgil Van Dijk
Virgil Van Dijk currently can be regarded as one of the best center backs in the world at the moment. The 26-year-old is the definition of modern center back. He has been a rock at the back for the Reds this season and has been a part of the defense that has kept the most clean sheets.
Van Dijk has clearly justified his price tag this season and he has all the traits to be a future Liverpool legend. He has the leadership skills and might be the next captain of Liverpool. The lanky defender is great on the ball, brilliant in the air and has that calmness, and swagger about the way he plays the game.
Just the sight of the guy is enough to make any Premier League attacker be intimidated. With Liverpool chasing the Premier League title, Jurgen Klopp would hope his superstar keeps up his good form.
In terms of stats in the Premier League this season, Van Dijk has won 74 percent of his tackles and 77 percent of his duels.
