A total of five Liverpool players have been voted into the 2020 PFA Team of the Year!
Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mane all got the nod for the XI, but Mo Salah missed out.
Jamie Vardy and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were favoured over the Egyptian and Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling, both of whom had arguably better seasons.

It’s a shame Mo missed out after another world-class campaign at Anfield, but that doesn’t take much away from the incredible achievement by the squad as a unit.
Henderson was also up for PFA Player of the Year – but that award was won by Kevin De Bruyne, the first City player to ever do so.
The Liverpool captain was classy in defeat, tweeting a congratulatory message to the Belgian midfielder shortly after the announcement was made.
Congratulations to @DeBruyneKev on winning the @PFA Players’ Player of the Year award. Class act on and off the pitch. Well deserved 🔥👌

Liverpool did pick up another award, though – Trent was named the PFA Young Player of the Year!
If we’re being honest, nobody else stood a chance with the full-back having yet another instrumental season from deep within Jurgen Klopp’s team.
WELL IN, TRENT! 🙌@trentaa98 is the PFA Young Player of the Year 👏 #PFAawards pic.twitter.com/FMncd28GxJ

We bet it won’t be long until Trent has his hands on the other POTY award!
