Attack

Right-wing - Mohamed Salah

In his debut season at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah smashed almost every goalscoring record as he netted 32 goals in a single Premier League season.

The Egyptian has won two Golden Boots in two full seasons with the club and has now established himself as one of the best players in the world. He was the winner of the PFA Player of the Year Award for the 2017-18 season.

The 2017-18 campaign by the winger is matched only by two other Liverpool players this decade, and Salah's consistency and abilities are staggering. A fast, physical winger with a deadly left foot, the former Roma player has been involved in over 110 goals in a mere 120 games for the Reds.

A true phenomenon, Salah's legend at Anfield will only continue to grow given Liverpool's current form.

Striker - Luis Suarez

You have to feel bad for Roberto Firmino here - as good as the Brazilian is, his time at Anfield does not compare to the magic that Luis Suarez weaved in his time at the club. A genuine miracle worker, Suarez was, for a while, simply the best player in the world.

Although Salah may have scored one more goal than the Uruguayan, Suarez's 31 goals in the 2013/14 Premier League season is the stuff of legends.

The best player in England for over two years before he left, "El Pistolero" charmed the Anfield faithful with his skills week in and week out. Strong, creative, and one of the deadliest finishers in the game, Suarez was a menace against every defence he played.

He won the PFA Player of the Year Award in 2014 as well as the Golden Boot and was Liverpool's Player of the Year two seasons running. His place here is reserved without any doubts.

Left-winger - Sadio Mane

Signed from Southampton in 2016, Sadio Mane was one of Jurgen Klopp's first big-money signings; and boy has he delivered.

With a screamer of a goal on his Liverpool debut, Mane has now worked his way to the top of the game and is counted amongst one of the best players in the world right now.

The Senegalese international is one of the fastest players in the world, creative, and strong finisher. He shared the Golden Boot with Salah and Pierre-Emerick Aubamayeng last season, and his thirst for goals has only grown.

Mane is a nuclear weapon at the front of the line, and he and Salah combine to form the best wing duo in the world. A hard worker and a goalscoring threat at all times, Mane completes this list of Liverpool's team of the decade.
