Liverpool's 2020-21 season was not a successful one considering their high standards, but securing UEFA Champions League football is a huge positive for Jurgen Klopp's side.

Mohamed Salah continued on his merry way despite Liverpool's shortcomings. The Egyptian scored 22 league goals in 37 league appearances for Liverpool, just one behind top goalscorer Harry Kane.

The poor form of Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino for much of the season saw Salah come under immense pressure to deliver consistently. The 28-year-old did not disappoint as he played a pivotal role in the Reds' good form at the business end of the season.


Centre-forward - Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)

One of the best strikers in world football, Harry Kane has dominated the headlines in recent weeks.

The 27-year-old was in sensational form during the 2020-21 season and topped the league for goals and assists. Tottenham Hotspur endured a poor league campaign, but without Kane's contributions, it is hard to envisage Spurs' position in the league table. The England international made 35 league appearances, scoring 23 goals and providing 14 assists.

There have been reliable reports that Kane wants to leave Tottenham Hotspur in the summer. Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea are said to be interested in signing the striker, who will not come cheap.


Left-winger - Jack Grealish (Aston Villa)

Aston Villa captain and talisman Jack Grealish was one of the Premier League's best players this time around.

The 25-year-old is an excellent dribbler and chance creator, while he is also one of the most exciting players to watch on his day. He made 26 Premier League appearances, scoring six goals and providing 10 assists. His absence due to injury earlier this year showed how crucial he is to Dean Smith's side as the Villains struggled to perform consistently.

Grealish has been linked with some of the biggest clubs in the world for some time now. Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal are all said to be interested in his services.


Honorable Mentions: Son Heung-Min (Tottenham Hotspur), Edinson Cavani (Manchester United), Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa), Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton), Riyad Mahrez (Manchester City), Patrick Bamford (Leeds United), Jamie Vardy (Leicester City), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United)
