Englishman James Milner, a player for Liverpool, ignored his Egyptian teammate Mohamed Salah in his dream team lineup of stars he has played alongside throughout his football career, while placing Senegalese Sadio Mane on the bench. Milner revealed in an interview reported by the British newspaper "Daily Star" his ideal lineup from players he has played with, which notably excluded both Salah and Mane, despite their contributions to Liverpool's collection of titles, including the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League.
Here is the dream team chosen by James Milner:
- Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker
- Defense: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, Jonathan Woodgate, Ashley Cole
- Attack: Roberto Firmino, Alan Shearer, Sergio Aguero
Substitutes: Rio Ferdinand, Sadio Mane, David Beckham
Coach: German Jurgen Klopp
