Manager Jurgen Klopp says seven more Liverpool players could have made the PFA Team of the Year and insists “his team is the team of the season”.
The Reds saw Andrew Robertson, Trent-Alexander Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and forward Sadio Mane selected in the PFA team, which is chosen by players.
Manchester City had six players included, while Manchester United’s Paul Pogba completed the line-up.
Liverpool’s Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah and Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – who have both scored 19 league goals this season – were left out, as were Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Chelsea’s Eden Hazard, with 17 and 16 Premier League goals respectively.
