Ranking Liverpool's 5 most creative players right now

#3 Roberto Firmino

Atletico Madrid v Liverpool FC: Group B - UEFA Champions League

Unlike most strikers in football, Roberto Firmino is not a typical goalscorer. The Brazilian loves to create more than score goals and remains a vital cog in Liverpool's front three.

Firmino acts as a link between the two flanks occupied by Mo Salah and Sadio Mane. With his ball distribution and energy in the opponent's half, the 30-year old makes life easier for both wingers and aids in their scoring.

Aside from Firmino's magnificent link-up play, his vision is also praiseworthy. The Brazilian forward knows how to dribble and find his teammates in space. For his exploits, Firmino has racked up a whopping 70 assists to his name, besides scoring 93 goals for Liverpool.

#2 Trent Alexander-Arnold

At just 23, Trent Alexander-Arnold has already demonstrated his ability to become one of the best right-backs on the planet. The young right-back is defensively superb and magnificent in his offensive approach, making him a gem of a full-back.

While Alexander-Arnold is defensively solid, he is known for bombarding the right-flank with his runs on the overlaps. His darting runs combined with his impressive passing range helped open up the opponent's defense countless times for Liverpool.

Alexander-Arnold's early crosses into the box while occupying attacking areas is a priceless trait. The English right-back delivers venomous balls into the final third, which makes him proficient at his job. His chemistry with Salah on the right flank is also great, helping him create a plethora of chances for his teammates.

Alexander-Arnold has scored 10 goals and assisted 47 times in his 187 appearances with Liverpool.

#1 Mohamed Salah

Mo Salah, one of the best attackers in the world, needs no introduction. He has etched his name in Liverpool's history and continues to entice fans and critics alike with his powerful displays.

Salah is almost a regular name on the scoresheet for the Reds. He finds the net more often than not, scoring some impressive goals in the process. But the Egyptian is also a highly creative player - dazzling the defenders with his runs from the right flank.

In addition to his unstoppable runs, Salah is also great at getting out of tight areas by linking up with his teammates. His vision is a bonus, which is why he creates when he fails to find the net.
