The metronome. Steven Davis controlled games with intelligence and composure, making him essential in linking defense and attack.
Midfield: Glen Kamara
Cool under pressure, Glen Kamara brought balance and control, particularly in European nights and high-stakes matches.
Midfield: Todd Cantwell
From Röhl’s side, Todd Cantwell earns his place for creativity, energy, and his ability to unlock defenses in the current system.
Right Wing: Joe Aribo
Versatile and unpredictable, Joe Aribo offers goals, flair, and tactical flexibility—capable of drifting inside or stretching play.

Striker: Alfredo Morelos
Leading the line is Alfredo Morelos, whose goalscoring record and aggression made him the focal point of Gerrard’s attack.
