Premier League Dream Team this season that can beat Liverpool

Midfield

Defensive midfielder- Rodrigo (Manchester City)

Manning one half of the Defensive midfield positions in this team is Manchester City’s Rodrigo. The defensive midfielder’s main job alongside his partner in this team is to completely nullify Liverpool’s midfield.

Rodrigo is the perfect main for this job as he possesses the natural instinct to sense danger, cut passing lanes and put a foot in for tackles. He can also swiftly provide cover for his centrebacks during quick counters, effectively making him a priceless asset through his defense alone.

Rodrigo is however, much more than just a defensive midfielder. He is capable of spraying both long and short passes, as is evident from his average of 73 passes per match. with a passing accuracy of 92.3% and is also quite good in the air for a defensive midfielder.

All in all, Rodrigo is the perfect man for this side due to his ability to spot a pass, make runs and defend effectively. He is the heart of this team that ensures his side always keep the upper hand in the midfield battle between both sides.

Defensive midfielder- Wilfred Ndidi (Leicester City)

The fact that 23-year old Wilfred Ndidi is already being compared to Former Leicester City player, N’Golo Kante, should tell you more than enough about the meteoric rise of this young midfielder. Much like Kante during Leicester’s title winning season, Ndidi has been the driving force of the side that currently sits 2nd in the Premier League table.

He is phenomenal at winning the ball back and provides the extra layer of defense ahead of the centrebacks. He also links efficiently between the defense and attack allowing the fullbacks and the forwards to express themselves freely while searching for goals.

Ndidi is also very good at drawing the second striker or a midfielder out of position by playing deep, allowing for the more creative players around him to drop in the spaces in the build their attacking play from there.

Together with Rodrigo, they will allow for the wingbacks and the front three to go all out without worrying, knowing that their defense and midfield is well looked after. Allowing for even more pressure to be applied on Liverpool’s defense.

Attacking midfielder- Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City)

The playmaker for this side will be Kevin De Bruyne, The Belgian midfielder is almost the perfect player to take this position and is arguably the best in his position in the world or at the very least, the Premier League.

His 12 assists, the highest in the league, tells you about his ability to make key passes in the game. Through balls, long shots, you name it and he’s good at it. He is the perfect number 10 for his ability to create and even score goals.

When on song, there is no one that can stop him and with two strikers ahead of him, De Bruyne has even more options while taking the ball forward. As the number 10 of this side, De Bruyne is perhaps the most important player this side. However, there are two more players in this side who have the all-important task of putting the ball behind the net and winning the game for this Premier League Dream Team that can beat Liverpool this season.
