What has led the Reds to be the best team on the planet?

The surprise of Europe, Villareal, sadly ended up confirming something that many of us already take for granted, Liverpool is a practically perfect team, a machine that works in such a way that it is not possible to beat them unless they allow it. Regardless of what happens at La Cerámica, which in my personal opinion will only be a procedural match, Liverpool is undoubtedly the candidate to lift what would be its seventh European Cup, and right now, of the 4 teams that remain in the race, they are the most solid, Manchester City also appears as the second best team in the world, but we have already seen how Real Madrid made them suffer more than it should due to the lack of success of the citizen team, something that could be very expensive in the Santiago Bernabeú when it is their turn to play the return leg. The point is that Liverpool has been the best team in the world for some seasons but there has been a problem with the reds, they suffered a serious downturn due to the immense plague of injuries that has hit them after obtaining the Premier League and of the sixth European Cup, let us remember that Liverpool lost Virgil Van Dijk for much of the season who was its defensive pillar and Klopp failed to find a suitable replacement for the Frenchman, in addition to also suffering the loss of Alisson Becker, another great pillar of the club, these kinds of situations kept Klopp's team at bay, who wanted to show what they are capable of.

Perfection in all its lines

Liverpool has practically no flaws in its training, in the goalkeeper position, we have Alisson Becker, a guy who since Roma has been the sensation of Europe in the goal, and competes with Ederson for the ownership of the goal in Brazil, one of the most demanding and important in the world (although in recent times he has been taking advantage of the City goalkeeper, during Tite's leadership in the Brazilian team), in central defense, Klopp finally found the ideal partner of the imposing Virgil Van Dijk, Konaté, two extremely gigantic guys who are scary to face in a one-on-one, but despite everything, they have an exquisite technique, a tremendous aerial game and impressive anticipations, on the wings, two of those responsible of Liverpool's vertical game, nicknamed "Heavy Metal", Trent Alexander Arnold and Robertson, tireless railwaymen with a highly educated foot to place the centers, not for nothing the English full-back has broken his s own marks of assists in a season, in the midfield, Henderson with all his category and the hierarchy of his time in Liverpool and Fabinho, one of the defensive pillars of the Anfield team, a guy who if you are not careful he even steals your name , Hurgen Klopp's N'Golo Kanté, to these two you add Thiago Alcántara, the orchestra director, the best Spanish midfielder today, who after a long time of adaptation understood what was being played in Liverpool and now he is he who decides when they press the accelerator and when they are more elaborate.

Europe's most envied attack

As if that were not enough, Liverpool has the two best players in Africa, Sadio Mané and Salah, the Senegalese and the Egyptian demonstrated it after reaching the final of the African Cup of Nations where Senegal won on penalties, in the final stretch of the season, the performance of the two has been a scandal and the clashes between the two (for the African Cup final and for the ticket to Qatar 2022) rather than separate them as the yellow press pointed out, seems to have united them more and assists are distributed left and right, always being sharp with their scandalous speed, almost impossible to overcome by any central. In addition, after the giant first campaigns of Firmino with Klopp, two variants arrived, first, the Portuguese Diogo Jota, who arrived in the midst of an atmosphere of uncertainty, even being criticized by the Liverpool fans, how did he respond? taking ownership away from Firmino and becoming one of Liverpool's leading figures in attack, as if that were not enough, after Shaqiri's departure from the team (another who performed quite well), Klopp decided to sign the young sensation of the moment, the Colombian Luis Díaz, immediately, without the need for adaptation time or anything like that, Díaz showed that he was the ideal guy for Liverpool, pure magic, pure imbalance, pure verticality, pure dribbling, pure football, watching the Colombian play is a spectacle visual, as well as watching Liverpool attack, simply wonderful, they make you feel like a child in front of the screen, wishing that the game would never end.

Overwhelming superiority

Against Villareal, Liverpool was to be feared, they gave a feeling of superiority and total dominance against a team that has just eliminated Juventus and Bayern, but it is easy to summarize the match, Liverpool did not give Villareal any option, the Yellow Submarine was seen totally subdued and worst of all, it seemed that Liverpool did it with great ease, their footballers laughed, they were calm, while the Spaniards had enough sweat to fill hundreds of barrels, the electricity with which they attack the Anfield Road team is unpredictable and this makes it great, Mané, Salah or Díaz can do any genius to face the goal, as well as Thiago or Henderson can shoot from mid-distance and filter an exquisite pass, the same as Fabinho, they also count With the threat of Arnold and Robertson who are always fulfilling their duties and as if that were not enough, they have the game in the skies of Van Dijk and (1.93 m) and Konaté (1.94 m), who n tells Klopp's Liverpool to stop? they are alive in all the possible titles, they are already champions of the League Cup, they have just eliminated Manchester City in the F.A Cup, they are 1 point behind Guardiola's team in the Premier and they already have one foot in the final of the League of Champions, what Jurgen Klopp has achieved with Liverpool is simply magical.
