      Your Liverpool 5 aside team

      Just for a bit of fun

      What would your Liverpool 5 aside team be?

      Must be a goalkeeper. After that you can pick who you want.

      Alisson
      Virgil
      Gerrard
      Alonso
      Fowler


      I mean, there could be a million different variations

      1-1-2-1

      Ali in a 5 a side goal, good luck
      Virgil covering all angles
      Stevie and Xabi pulling strings
      Robbie arguable the best natural finisher

      Best of luck

      Another variation

      Ali
      Hansen
      Thiago
      Barnes
      Salah

      Reina - Arguably best we have had with the ball at his feet, which is handy for 5 a side

      Gerrard - Energy to get over the pitch. No need for a defender ( Hansen and VVD only 2 id have picked from)

      Molby - Where do ye want it lads.....would never give it away

      Dalglish - No explanation

      Fowler - Finish from anywhere

      I think there should be an unwritten rule though that you have to have one from each position so a defender is a must

      Molby- loved him but he wouldn’t have the fitness for it

      Reina, Virg, Gerrard, Coutinho, Dalglish.

      Had to include Coutinho as he was a futsal star and would dominate fives. Hard not to pick Fowler or Mo, they'd both smash in the goals.

      Did a harder version of this with a group chat recently.

      If you want to try, pick a 5 a side team, with the only rule being none of the players can have been in the same squad. A lot harder than you think and tough decisions needed! I'll dig my team out and post it

      Clemence (because nobody's picked him yet).

      The 78/79 campaign where he only conceded 16 league goals has got to be one of the most impressive and underrated stats in English football. Be very surprised if any other side has bettered that. I know Chelsea conceded 15 in 04/05, but that was a 38 game season as opposed to the 42 games played in the old First Division

      Try keeping the ball from that team. I feel Bobby is the most perfect player for 5 a side and should be in everyone’s team.

      Was just going to say that Firmino surely is the ultimate 5 a side player.

      Allison

      Gerrard

      Molby

      Salah

      Firmino

      Literally could change this in a second to 5 different players to be honest.

      A lot of this is more a popularity contest (which is totally fine - bottom line is we have had loads of fantastic footballers over the years).

      Michael Owen in his prime would have been unstoppable at 5-a-side. Same with Kevin Keegan. Nary a mention for either. I think I'm the only one who named McManaman. But that's the fun of it. Choose with your head or your heart. There's no bad team in here.

      But the form and quality of our team right now, are also something special. I hope you're all enjoying it.
