The ever-dependable James Milner ended his fourth season with Liverpool as a Champions League winner.

Milner is Liverpool's vice-captain

While central midfield is his favored position, Milner - who won 61 England caps during a seven-year international career - regularly fills in elsewhere for the Reds, perhaps most notably in 2016-17, when he spent the entire season as Klopp’s first-choice left-back.

A veteran of more than 500 Premier League appearances, Milner has played in four major finals for Liverpool - most recently the 2019 Champions League showpiece, when his introduction from the bench early in the second half brought with it a typical sense of assurance and nous.

Milner is renowned for his versatility; across his career, Milner has played as a central midfielder, a defensive midfielder and as an attacking midfielder, as well as on the wing, and as a full-back, with Milner's preferred position being as a central midfielder. During his time at Leeds United, Milner predominantly played as a winger, before moving into central midfield during his time at Aston Villa.

Milner has the ability to pass accurately and shoot from a great distance from the goal. As a result, he usually goes forward for set pieces and is often a candidate to take corners and free kicks. Critical opinion is divided as to Milner's crossing ability. While some commentators have been critical of his ability in this area, other journalists have said that Milner can produce accurate crosses
