    Hi @serenity2
                            How are you? Thank you for making your predictions and for joining the conversation. Each game week is put up in the Coffee Lounge a couple of days before they start so the next set of fixtures will be put up today ready for Tuesday. Great to hear you are a Liverpool fan, congratulations on winning the league, completely deserved and I think the Liverpool team this year are arguably one of the best teams the Premiership has ever seen. They are a joy to watch, and so balanced across the whole team. The game at City was a difficult watch but it appeared they had all had a good time in the lead up to game but I think Klopp will want to finish the season strong. Thank you

    Hi @Richard_Scope
                                      Completely agree about Andy Robertson :) I'm pleased to hear you are not too down heartened as Liverpool has been world class over the last couple of seasons and this league win is completely deserved. I agree with what you say about the guard of honour, it powered them to show what they are capable of and to be fair they are clinical with their chances. Please may I ask, who is your player of the season for Liverpool? I think Jordan Henderson has been a rock in the midfield. Thank you.

    Hi @Globster
                           How are you? Great question, I think over he years the Premiership has been blessed with many quality players, but I think one of the best players to play in the Premiership is Paul Scholes, the way he could pick a pass was really unique. Thank you.

    hi @WestHam06
    thank you for the reply.
    i was delighted when I joined here to see football posts .so thank you for that to you and everyone involved..
    yes I agree it’s been great to watch Liverpool this season .it has been such a good distraction for me too..

    I think if we do well today the young lads may get a chance to come on the field ..it would be nice for them to be able to have a go. Elliott , Jones etc...

    Hope we score a few today !
    thanks again 
     :)

    Hi @serenity2
                            Not a problem, it is so good to see some many people getting involved so thank you to everyone. I know Liverpool have some really good young talent both with the team and out on loan including Woodburn at Oxford. It must be reassuring for the future and that they are able to play with such great role models in the first team. @Richard_Scope is also a Liverpool fan and I asked this question so please if I may ask you as well who, for you, is Liverpool's player of the season? Also, the next set of fixtures are up in the Coffee Lounge so if you would like to make predictions then please do. Thank you.

    For me, it has to be Jordan Henderson. He has had big boots to fill. When you consider what he has won this season, he hasn't done too badly, considering Sir Alex Ferguson said: "Henderson couldn't run properly."

    I think if we consider what current players would be amongst the best that the Prem League has ever seen, I think Kevin De Bruyne has to be up there. 

    I think Jamie Vardy could go down as one of the best as well, simply because of how much he's pushed his ability to the maximum, keeping in mind where he came from earlier in his career.

    I really don't rate Vardy, but I'd be tempted to whack Aguero on that list. I'd also argue to remove Gerrard from it, too. He's a cracking midfielder, but better than Scholes or Vieira?

    What about defenders? What's the best back four the Premiership has seen?

    Gerrard carried a mediocre side for almost a decade.

    @Richard_Scope
    I have question for you Richard do recon Mikel Arteta is the right man for arsenal managers job?
    Which areas of the team does he need to strengthen in summer?
    Do you rate  David Luiz as a player who can fit Arteta's way of playing?

    I know you weren't asking me, but I'm interested in what you ask. 

    I think Artetta is the right person for Arsenal. He's demanding, tactically astute and will intend to play a brand of football that will suit the players they have. 

    I think his success will depend on recruitment and which players they can hold on to. 

    I definitely do think though that given a few years, like Klopp has been given at Liverpool, Artetta could build a great side.

    Hi @serenity2
                           Fantastic choice in Alison, I think sometimes goalkeepers can be forgotten as they are not necessarily remembered as much as the goal scorers. He has definitely kept Liverpool in some games this season, world-class goalkeeper :) Virgil is a quality defender :) Thank you.

    Hi @Richard_Scope
                                        Completely agree, I think Jordan Henderson has always been underrated but he has definitely come into his own under Klopp. He is definitely proving the doubters wrong, I have a lot of respect for him both for what he has done on and off of the pitch, setting up the players initiative for the NHS :) Thank you.
