The Jack of all Liverpool exchanges, James Milner, has finally clarified the position he most prefers to play in, but insists he is happy to start where Jurgen Klopp needs it.
The veteran midfielder has held several positions at Anfield under KloppNot least when he played the best part of a season as a left back before Andy Robertson’s arrival.
The 34-year-old, one of the best manufacturers in the Premier League, has Leeds, Newcastle, Aston Villa and Man City among his former clubs, and has also been used on the right side and midfield during his stay. at Anfield.
But he still sees center field midfield, where he enjoyed perhaps his best season at Aston Villa in 2009/10, as his “best position.”
“When I arrived, I was always an extreme” Milner saying Sky Sports.
“I played right or left. I played a little in the center of the field and when I was very young a little ahead, but mainly on the wing. I joined the Leeds team in the wing and the first time I really moved in the middle was with Aston Villa.
“I still think [central midfield] It is my best position. If you look at the seasons I’ve had when I played solidly in midfield, the first at Aston Villa, I got into the team of the year, I got into the World Cup team and I think I was the young PFA player . of the year of that year.
So the next time I had a solid season was with Liverpool and I got quite a few assists for a few years in Europe and in the league.
“In terms of that outing, I would say midfield, but you play where you’re asked to play, and different teams need different things. You have to find a way to fit in with certain teams and what the team needs.
“I will never be the star of the team and the team will build around me, so I think it is important that as a player you have to adapt to that team and what is required.” Sometimes you can be more attacking and other times it is more defensive, covering someone else. Sometimes it’s just giving the other guy the ball and letting him move on. “
In other Liverpool news, The Reds reportedly “called a South American winger every day” in an attempt to lure him to move to Anfield.
