Not necessarily the best, but most important.

For us I'd say Mane is the best but Firmino is most important. Leads our pressing and closing down from the front, wins possession back so often deep in the opponents half, and of course chips in with decent amounts of goals and assists. Mane second, absolutely rapid and we looked horrific without him in the second half of last season, he's a better individual player than anyone else in our squad too, I'd say he is the player Barca should be looking at to replace Neymar but we'll happily let them keep believing he shouldn't be. Coutinho third. Incredible skill and an insane long shot on him, can blow hot and cold but has been a lot more consistent under Klopp than he was for Brendan. Gets talked up in the press about being our best and most important player but I think one of the other 2 I've mentioned beat him in each regard. Would love to see our plan of playing him deeper in a midfield 3 with Mane/Firmino/Salah ahead of him come to fruition, but we'll see what happens.

[Babayaro.]

Hazard, Kante and any of Azpi/Cahill/Luiz

[Locke.]

Thought for sure Caballero would be on there

[Babayaro.]

He's fourth

[Drew.]

Tricky one,. Koscielny, Mesut and Giroud could all have easily made it onto the list but i've picked the 3 who would probably be the hardest 3 to replace.

Alexis single-handedly carries us and wins us games at times, he's one of the best players the club has ever had, hes a no-brainer.

Cazorla due to the fact our midfield collapsed as soon as he got injured. As good as Ozil is Santi was literally the difference going forwards, i've not seen a player tip toe around the opposition and keep the ball as well as he does. He's one of those players where you don't realise how much you'd miss him until he's out of the side.. apart from height he has everything, massively underrated

And Ramsey.. even though he has rusty patches of playing badly when he is in form he can be really ****ing good. It's more to do with him scoring the winning goals in 2 FA Cup finals though, not many players can say they've done that and we can't guarantee we'd have won either of those without him. He deserves a lot more respect than he sometimes gets

[Nicky91]

from PSV, well we lost a lot of good players, but now i think Lozano, Hendrix and our goalkeeper Zoet

[Shaun]

Sanchez, Cech & Giroud

I know the latter take a lot of flak but they're 90% dependable on saving and scoring respectively. Plus there's not really a lot of competition.

[Drew.]

Cech was signed to save us about 12-15 points a season, instead hes ended up costing us them

He's probably the best keeper that's played for your club, since Pat Jennings was there.

Your probably gonna tell me David Seaman? but Seaman had a quality defence in front of him.

I think your problem is your outfield players.

Cech was a great keeper back in his Chelsea days but those days are long gone. It'd be like saying Ibra is one of the best strikers to ever play for United, He's been and done it in the past to be considered one of the best strikers ever but he's done nothing worthy at united to be considered a great there, same with Cech at Arsenal. He's a huge liability, has been for a few seasons.

Lehmann >>>>>> Cech

[Crimson Dynamo]

Antonio, Lanzini and Chicharito

[Shaun]

Cech is perfectly fine, not his fault that Monreal and Bellerin allow every wing attack to succeed

[Brother Leon]

Pogba - Probably our only True World Class outfield player.

Lukaku - Someone has to score.

De Gea - Enough Said.

[Mystic Mock]

David Davis
Che Adams (we've really missed him since he has been injured)
David Cotterill (although I know that not all blues fans will agree with me on this)

It's a good thread Locke btw.

This, without Cech in goal I do wonder where Arsenal would be in certain matches.

[Jake.]

Sanchez, Giroud and Cech or Ramsay, can't decide between the two
