He isn’t Liverpool’s best player but still, you have to tip your hat to James Milner.
The former England international, who earns £140,000 per week at Anfield [Spotrac], will be turning 37 years of age next month.
But still, is there anyone fitter in this Liverpool squad? Potentially not.
Jurgen Klopp put his Reds players through their paces in Dubai on Tuesday ahead of their Premier League return after Christmas.
And you have to say, Milner looked in insane physical condition.
Despite the aging process and being Liverpool’s most senior player now, nobody can say that the former Manchester City utility player doesn’t take extremely good care of himself.
He is regularly among the highest-performing players during Klopp’s pre-season training programs and no doubt he will continue to shine in Dubai.
Milner is out of contract in June and could well leave Liverpool this time, having earned a new one-year extension last season.
It wouldn’t be a massive surprise if this is his last season at Anfield but, going by those pictures, would anyone back against him playing his way to another new short-term contract? Absolutely not.
