Jose Mourinho names Champions League team of the season and Liverpool stars, including Virgil van Dijk, dominate
Jose Mourinho has selected a Champions League team of the season following Liverpool’s victory over Tottenham in Madrid.The Reds beat Spurs 2-0 on Saturday night to claim their sixth European crown – and it’s no surprise to see Jurgen Klopp’s men dominate Mourinho’s XI.4

Mourinho picked his standout players from this season’s Champions League

Six of them feature, including defensive trio Trent Alexander-Arnold, Andy Robertson and Virgil van Dijk.Goalkeeper Alisson Becker also makes the cut alongside forward Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.However, there is only room for one Tottenham star, Christian Eriksen, despite the club’s remarkable journey to the final. There are several notable absentees, such as Spurs forward Lucas Moura, who sent Tottenham to the final with a sensational hat-trick against Ajax in the semi-final.Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo also misses out since Mourinho chose to restrict the pool to semi-finalists only.The former Manchester United boss told RT: “I go to Alisson, especially because yesterday [in the final] he was there when they needed him to be there.GETTY4

Liverpool are champions of Europe for the sixth time

The two full-backs also have to be Liverpool players, amazing players, Alexander-Arnold and Robertson. Amazing character and personality. One [Alexander-Arnold] is a local boy, another [Robertson] is a Scottish boy that a few years ago was relegated with Hull City.And both they are physical, they are aggressive, they are what I call in football the good arrogance, they are not afraid to play, they go forward, they participate in attack.And even in a game yesterday under huge pressure they were very, very good.GETTY4

Virgil van Dijk cemented his status as one of the world’s best defenders

“Van Dijk is a king, he is a huge personality. Positionally, a top, top player.I didnt choose a player that was not in the semi-finals, its a principle, very objective, very pragmatic.Some players did amazing things, but I think its fair we focus on the teams that reach the last four.
