Yes, this will be their year. Even though a couple of names might raise questions regarding the solidity, the other names are good enough to plug any gaping holes. Shamal George is a talented goalkeeper and Harry Wilson, on loan at the moment at Derby County, has made 34 appearances and scored 11 goals and contributed 3 assists, and he is just 22. He has a cracker of a left foot to score goals from outside the box and from free kicks.

Liverpool also boasts of the most solid and settled defence and midfield. The only chink in the armour may be Clyne at Centre Back. But he is a solid defender and will not take long to learn this craft. Assuming that Clyne does not perform well, Liverpool can slot in young Nathaniel Phillips.

With a recently rejuvenated Lallana and Daniel Sturridge firing on all cylinders, the goals will keep on coming. In Alexander-Arnold and Roberston they have to best full-back pairing in Europe at the moment. And with Trent and Wilson sharing the dead ball responsibility, the opposition will be careful not to foul anyone near their box.

The Final Six from bottom: Everton, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham, Liverpool.
