Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Crooks has just named his Premier League Team of the Season and only one Liverpool player made it.

“All of these were factors of Liverpool’s title failure, but they are back in the Champions League – and who can forget that heroic performance by Van Dijk in the League Cup final against Chelsea?”
It wasn’t so long ago that people were writing off van Dijk but he’s returned to his world-class best this season.
