Liverpool’s perfect start to the season continued in the Champions League.

Liverpool fans celebrate during the Group C match of the UEFA Champions League between Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield on September 18, 2018 in Liverpool, United Kingdom.

Jamie Carragher gave special credit to four Liverpool players in particular on Twitter after a dramatic 3-2 win over Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night.

The Merseyside club earned three points in their first group stage match of the Champions League campaign and have now won all six games in all competitions this season.

Jurgen Klopp’s side took a two-goal lead at Anfield through goals from Daniel Sturridge and James Milner, before Thomas Meunier netted one back for the visitors prior to half-time.

PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe looked to have rescued a point with his equaliser in the 83rd minute, but substitute Roberto Firmino scored a stoppage time winner for the Premier League outfit.

Carragher credited Liverpool trio Georginio Wijnaldum, Jordan Henderson and Andrew Robertson for their individual displays on his personal Twitter account.

But he went one further for midfielder Milner, by claiming he’s “playing the best football of his career”.

Milner is enjoying a renaissance in his career and has established himself as a key part of the Liverpool team this season, starting in all six games so far.

The 32-year-old Englishman is thriving in the middle of the park for the Reds and the central midfielder is part of the Liverpool engine room.

His tireless work-rate is vital for Klopp’s team, while he has also been directly involved in four goals so far this season and kept his cool from the penalty spot against PSG.

Milner has previously starred for teams such as Manchester City, Newcastle and Aston Villa earlier in his career, but may be enjoying his most consistent run of top-class performances.
