Liverpool news: Roberto Firmino lists Premier League best stars with one surprise name

The Brazil international is enjoying his most successful campaign to date in front of goal having scored 23 goals in all competitions.

His return has been somewhat overshadowed by the incredible debut season Mohamed Salah is enjoying at Anfield this year.

But the attacking duo, along with Sadio Mane, have established themselves as one of the most feared attacking line-ups in European football right now.

No team have scored more goals in the Champions League this year with 28 and Firmino leads the way for Liverpool in the competition with seven.

The 26-year-old is now in his third year in English football and he admits it is hard to pick one standout player in the league.

But while listing some of the best players from the top teams, Firmino gave a surprise shoutout to Tottenham midfielder Moussa Sissoko.

“We have great players in English football, it’s hard to select one as the outright best,” Firmino told Goal.

“That’s why it’s the most popular league with many quality teams. We can talk about the goalscorers Salah and Harry Kane.

“We also have Gabriel Jesus, Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan in Manchester City, Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku at Manchester United, Moussa Sissoko and Mousa Dembele at Tottenham, Willian and Eden Hazard at Chelsea, Mesut Ozil at Arsenal.

“Not to mention Mane, Emre Can, Dejan Lovren and the many other good players we have here at Liverpool.

“It is a league with great stars. Virtually everyone I mentioned will be at the World Cup. The level is very high.”
