With 2020 approaching, Goal has decided to pick out the best players to have represented the Reds over the past 10 years

This was not a difficult choice.
Alisson Becker may only have been at Liverpool for 15 months but he is undoubtedly the best goalkeeper to have represented the club in the last decade – and beyond.
Calm, commanding and positionally perfect, the 27-year-old enjoyed a remarkable first season on Merseyside.
His 21 clean sheets earned him the Premier League Golden Glove award, and the Brazil No.1 finished the campaign as both a Champions League and Copa America winner.
"A complete goalkeeper," Jurgen Klopp has called him, and few would argue. Without him, Liverpool would not be European champions.

"Just a normal lad from Liverpool whose dreams came true," Trent Alexander-Arnold said after the Champions League final back in June. It's hard to argue with that, really.
The England international has yet to reach 100 appearances for Liverpool but his impact on the Reds' first team has been truly remarkable.
At just 21, he is already among the world's best full-backs, a potent attacking threat and an improving defender. The steady stream of assists provided by his wand of a right foot make him a Reds legend in the making.
He's already played in two Champions League finals, as well as a World Cup. And the scary thing is, he's only going to get better!

You might be surprised to read this one. Liverpool have had some pretty good centre-backs down the years, but only two of them delivered the Champions League.
Joel Matip's rise to prominence last season was something of a surprise. He had not entirely convinced following his move from Schalke in 2016, but with Virgil van Dijk alongside him, the Cameroon star has emerged as a truly world-class performer.
He was key in the European Cup triumph over Tottenham, and has continued that form into the new season too.
For a free transfer, Matip ranks alongside the best signings in Liverpool's history.

Who else? The £75m ($96m) bargain, that's who!
Has one player ever had such a transformative effect at this football club?
Van Dijk's signing in January 2018 turned Liverpool from top-four hopefuls to European royalty. The Reds have the best defensive record in the country since the big Dutchman turned up.
Aerially dominant, classy in possession and never anything other than completely in control, Van Dijk is the world's best defender, a Champions League winner and could land the Ballon d'Or before the year is out.
If that doesn't justify inclusion in this team, then nothing will!
