Liverpool midfielder James Milner has made 33 appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s side so far this season.

Gary Neville has told The Football Show, which was broadcast on Sky Sports, that Liverpool defender James Milner is so ‘under-rated’.

Milner has enjoyed a wonderful career at the top level and even at the age of 34 he continues to be an important player for Liverpool.

The England international may only play a rotational role for the Reds now, but he still gives them cover in a number of positions.

And Neville claims that Milner is the type of player that every squad should want.

“He drives standards all the time, makes sure the young players don’t get carried away with things, you’d want one or two of those in your team every time,” Neville said. “He’s a dream really.

“He goes on that level of under-rated.”

Milner has played 33 times for Liverpool this campaign across all competitions, scoring four goals and claiming four assists.

Milner’s versatility makes him vital to Liverpool, as he can cover at full-back or in central-midfield.

The experienced Reds player has helped Liverpool dominate the Premier League this term.

The Reds are currently 25 points clear of their nearest rivals Manchester City and are on course to win the title, if the campaign does get back underway again.
