Premier League is the most Competitive league in the world

#2 James Milner (Liverpool)

Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool FC - Premier League
James Milner has been immense this season for Liverpool

James Milner is the vice-captain of Liverpool FC. Everyone knows that the official captain of Liverpool is Jordan Henderson, but let's all accept the fact that James Milner is the real leader on the pitch. Even this season, Milner has started more games than Henderson and rightly motivates his team throughout the game. Even in the tense game against Paris St Germain, he was the one who ran a marathon and almost shut down every attack Neymar and Co could come up with.

He is the undisputed penalty taker for the Reds and has been doing so for quite some time. Even with the presence of Salah, Firmino, and Mane, Jurgen Klopp has gone to Milner every time the team gets a penalty. His calmness and his willingness to do anything for the team is a trait that his teammates really look up to.
