      Q. Who is the best team player you saw this season?

      A. One of the best is James Milner. In the Champions final he played as a defender and midfielder. It's fantastic that you can offer that at 33. And the strikers? Everyone plays for the team. Salah, Firmino and Mané work very hard in defence because Klopp wants to press. A few months ago he saw the light: he understood that pressing is not always the right thing to do. It depends on the conditions. His Dortmund was more offensive than his Liverpool, where he learned that sometimes you have to retreat a little bit, put your lines together and counter-attack. That's good for Salah, Mané and Firmino because they're very quick to take advantage of the spaces at the back of the opposing defence. Barça suffered it. I think Messi should wonder how it is possible to take so long without winning a Champions League.

      I think his biggest fan is Jürgen and I don't think he will go anywhere whilst Jürgen is manager .

      Who wouldn’t want the complete professional that Milner is at their club? In any capacity - he’s a huge asset.

      I think Jürgen has already mentioned his pre match talks but I think his boots will still be used this season

      Well unless we sign a replacement for Moreno, he will be used to deputize at left back for games Robbo does not play. Cannot see Lewis breaking through just yet.

      He can also play at right back and given that we have Charity Shield, Super Cup and Club World Cup, there will be plenty of games his experience will be needed.

      What an example to young players he is and if I realised that Ribena could have such a positive effect I would have never started with Red wine.

      He looked so sharp too. He has to go down as our most successful Bosman signing?

      It has to be him..... Maybe Mcallister?

      Dude, imagine if he ages like McAllister. That cat played high level football into his 40s. 6 more years of a serviceable Mily? Yes please!!!!!

      I would give a contract now, he's fit as anyone or better and his experience is needed.

      remember him at the end of the Barca game and the final he is fit as a Butchers dog the size of his arms he is one strong lad and mentally strong and tough as old boots.

      We can all relate to him in some ways but in others perhaps not.

      His dedication and hunger every day is something few people have in their psyche.

      His talent gets him so far but he has made himself a real tough pro. Maybe one of the toughest I've ever seen.

      Milner will be here as long as Klopp wants him and Leeds don't get promoted to the Prem.

      Klopp was talking about Milly in his presser said he's a pain in the ass because he wants to know the what/when/why on every little thing...then the gaffer was like "door is open for coaching or whatever he wants at LFC"

      Is there any truth in the fact that despite being in his last year of his contract he has not been offered and extension ?
