#2 Liverpool
Though their midfield lacks the star power and is often cricticised for being one dimensional, Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool team has solidity and years of experience behind them, which is invaluable in high-pressure games. Their skipper Jordan Henderson is among the best decision-makers in the Premier League and contributes a lot to his team’s pressing.
Georginio Wijnaldum can play on both the flanks and offers a lot of dynamism in the midfield. Fabinho has been a class apart this season and his immaculate long balls to Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have left the opposition clueless on a number of occasions. James Milner is mostly used as a substitute these days and even at this age has endless energy and can play in any position ranging from left-back to right-wing.
Naby Keita was brought to bring some much-needed creativity, but his time at Anfield has been hampered by injuries. Finally, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain has scored wonder goals at an astonishing frequency this season and he might feature in some major Champions League fixtures, mainly because of his shooting skills.
