DM – Steven Gerrard
Now aged 34-years-old the captain has settled into this new deeplying role from which he can dictate play and having also retired from international football can give more to his domestic game.
CM – Jordan Henderson
Over the past 12 months this England international has improved greatly and looks to be the natural successor to Gerrard when the veteran hangs up his boots in what isn’t expected to be the distant future.
CM – Philippe Coutinho
One of Rodgers’ greatest talents as a coach is getting the best out of young players who clearly just need some faith putting in them and Coutinho looks set to be one of the finest playmakers in the division.
