UEFA Champions League Semi-final: Top 5 players to watch out for, Liverpool vs Villarreal LIVE
Trent Alexander-Arnold:
Still only 23-years-old, TAA has become one of the most important players in Jurgen Klopp’s team sheet. He has been undroppable for the most important games and Liverpool need him more than ever as they their hunt for the Quadruple continues.
He is one of the most influential right-backs in the world currently racking up 17 assists across all competitions and claiming two goals as well. His vision and crossing ability from a set-piece and even from open play is phenomenal and therefore the Villarreal defence will have to avoid conceding space to Alexander-Arnold.
Raul Albiol:
The Ex-Real Madrid star is still going strong at 36-years. The Spanish man has been a rock for his team with important blocks and match winning tackles. The captain has been a true example of leadership as he is ready to take his team to the Champions League final.
The likes of Diogo Jota, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Luis Diaz and Mo Salah will have to get past Raul Albiol in order to get a sniff at goal.
Thiago Alcantara:
Thiago has a very slow start to his Liverpool career but he has been a cheat code to Jurgen Klopp’s midfield problems. He has stepped up with important goals but most importantly his passing and vision has helped the Reds.
He runs the midfield for Liverpool and is always looking for the runs made by his attackers to set them up with the perfect through balls and goal scoring opportunities.

Arnaut Danjuma:
Once upon a time playing in the Premier League Arnaut Danjuma didn’t have the best time at Bournemouth but has reached his potential at Villarreal and is also part of the Netherlands National team.
Danjuma has scored 16 goals and provided four assists for Villarreal this season in La Liga and in the Champions League so far. His pace and dribbling traits will surely keep the Liverpool defenders on their toes.
Mohamed Salah:
The Egyptian King, Mohamed Salah is once again having a top season for himself across all competitions and a quadruple will definitely add to his colourful season so far. He has already outscored his last year’s Premier League tally scoring 22 goals and 13 assists so far.
He has managed to score 8 goals in the Champions League and will look to disrupt the Villarreal defence constantly running at defenders and making runs in behind. His pace and dribbling compliment his shooting quality.
