There was no place for either Trent Alexander-Arnold or Luis Suarez in Jamie Carragher s all-time Liverpool XI, with just two members of Arne Slot s team making the cut.
Suarez got 82 goals and 34 assists in just 133 games for the Reds, but won just one trophy in his time at Anfield – the League Cup in 2012 – and while Alexander-Arnold won everything on offer under Jurgen Klopp, like Suarez, he s failed to make it into Carragher s top Liverpool team.
: I would go with Ray Clemence just over Alisson [Becker], just for the fact he won so many trophies. Right back, Phil Neal or Trent [Alexander-Arnold].
Steve Nicol might do a job for me at left back – when you think of players who have played for AC Milan and won the European Cup four of five times and we go ‘wow’, [same with] Real Madrid and Barcelona players – Neal won four European Cups – it’s unbelievable.
At the end of Trent’s career, I’ll probably say Trent, but I’ll go with Neal due to the fact he’s won four European Cups.
I would go with Virgil van Dijk and Alan Hansen – that would be a great partnership [at centre-back].
Andy Robertson may come into the equation, but Liverpool haven’t had a history of unbelievable left-backs – even when they were successful. I’m going to go for Nicol at left-back, he had a great combination with the guy in front of him who’s going to play, John Barnes, in that late 80’s team. Nicol was a player a little similar to me – right back, centre-back, left back, but he was that good for Liverpool.
