What would happen if we scoured the rest of the EPL teams in an attempt to put together a Frankenstein’s monster Eleven that Jurgen Klopp would be proud of? The objective is to utilize the same 4-3-3 formation and tactics as Liverpool’s first team and try to beat them at their own game. This is not necessarily the best non-Liverpool EPL Eleven, it is the best team as close to like-for-like that would give Liverpool a run for their money. Does this team stand a chance?
The Team
Key Decision: The front three will be completely fluid, perhaps more so than Liverpool’s with Aubameyang, Son and Sterling interchanging positions seamlessly.
Formation: 4-3-3
Goalkeeper: Dean Henderson (Man Utd)
Right Back: Aaron Wan-Bissaka (Man Utd)
Central Defenders: Caglar Soyuncu, Aymeric Laporte
Left Back: Kieran Tierney
Holding Midfielder: Ngolo Kante
Central Midfielders: Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Graelish
Center Forward: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Left Forward: Son Heung-Min
Right Forward: Raheem Sterling
Why did we not select Harry Kane, Sergio Aguero or Ederson? Listen to find out!
