This guy has the most impressive, natural charisma to him. Confident but incredibly chill. Also very polite. You get the feeling that you will get all the respect and decency from him, but you'd never want to mess with him, and he makes you feel that without giving you the attitude. He is the less comedian-like version of Ibra, and the less obnoxious version of Sergio Ramos.

I was never sold on Carragher as a right back, but he was a brilliant centre back. I think people who aren't old enough to have seen him just look at the Henry clips and think that kind of thing often happened, which it didn't. He was rarely exposed, while his timing of tackles and the way he read the play was top class. He was undoubtedly good enough to be in there.

Giroud is underrated. People will only see it after he retires. Quality striker.

absolutely no doubt he has put in the greatest performances and has the best individual skills and strengths of any CB ever seen in the PL. Longevity is an issue but the best I have seen, much like Suarez up front. But, he has the opportunity over the next few years as captain to cement his place. Unbelievable defender and player, perfect in 2019, best I have ever seen.

Such a bright guy, I can see him being a manager one day

I like how Virgil didn't drop out any of his teammates Matip, Gomez and Konate for Carragher, it would be very disrespectful and he handled that very good. I watch Liverpool and I am big fan since 2001 and Jamie Carragher did some good games especially in UCL, but his best game of his life was 2005 UCL final which made him a legend for the club and well deserved, but his biggest problem was the lack of consistency.
