Dream11 team for Cardiff City Vs Liverpool
Formation: 4-4-2
GOALKEEPER
Alisson Becker: Alisson Becker will be a contender for signing for the season following a huge money move from Roma last summer. The Brazilian has been in fine fettle keeping 17 clean sheets in the league. His shot-stopping ability coupled with positioning makes himself one of the best in the world.
DEFENDERS
Sean Morrison: Sean Morrison stays underrated in Cardiff City’s defence, thanks to Sol Bamba. The Skipper has been one of the best performers for the Blues and will hope to shut down the attack of Liverpool. Besides, he has the capability to score from set pieces.
Bruno Manga: Bruno Manga has played all 34 games for Cardiff City this campaign. The 30-year-old has been one of the best performers for the hosts at the back. Even though he does not have a goal, the Gabonese International will be hoping to nick one to keep them in the hunt to play Premier League football next season.
Virgil Van Dijk: Virgil Van Dijk is the front runner to win the player of the year award. The Dutch International is undroppable for Liverpool currently as they hope to end the season with a silverware. The 27-year-old has the capability to score goals from set pieces and can pick out passes from the back.
Andy Robertson: Andy Robertson is easily the best left-back in the Premier League. The Spanish International is yet to find the back of the net, but has assisted nine times this campaign. His ability to defend and attack at full throttle with an abundance of energy makes him the best in the league.
MIDFIELDERS
Fabinho: Fabinho is a monster in the middle of the park. The Brazilian midfielder wins plenty of duels and sometimes goes forward to link up with the forwards. He has scored one and assisted another two for his teammates in the Premier League this campaign.
Aron Gunnarsson: Aron Gunnarsson is one of the undroppable members in the Cardiff City squad. The Icelandic International operates in the defensive midfield position and shields his defence with full running. He wins plenty of duels and has scored one throughout the season.
Jordan Henderson: Jordan Henderson is operating as a number 8 these days. The English International has two assists and a goal from the same period of time. He links up with the forwards again and presses relentlessly in the opposition box.
Sadio Mane (C): Sadio Mane is arguably the best player in the Premier League since the turn of the New Year. The Senegalese International has scored 18 goals this campaign, with most of them coming during the second part of the season. He is the man in form and looks deadly in front of the goal.
FORWARDS
Mohamed Salah (VC): Mohamed Salah was going through a rough patch when he struggled to register his name on the scoresheet for eight straight games. However, he has come back to score three in the last three games, thereby proving decisive in Liverpool’s title race with Manchester City. The Egyptian will be trying to get back his consistency.
Oumar Niasse: Oumar Niasse will start up front for Cardiff City. The Senegalese International is yet to find the back of the net, but he possesses a serious threat because of his breakneck pace. The Cardiff City striker will be used over the injured Calum Paterson.
