DC: Martin Skrtel vs Laurent Koscielny
Two key defenders for their respective clubs, Laurent Koscielny arguably just edges this battle at the moment after quietly going about his business in recent seasons.
Vote: Koscielny
DC: Mamadou Sakho vs Per Mertesacker
Two fine defenders even if neither is necessarily guaranteed a starting spot next season, Liverpool’s Mamadou Sakho looks the more in-form player at the moment, with Per Mertesacker slightly past his peak.
Vote: Sakho
MC: Jordan Henderson vs Francis Coquelin
Two very different players in the most defensive midfield position, Jordan Henderson is more of an all-rounder and a more important player for his club than Francis Coquelin.
Vote: Henderson
MC: James Milner vs Aaron Ramsey
A close call here between two fine, versatile midfield players, it looks like James Milner could be a great fit for Liverpool and possibly eclipse the slightly inconsistent Aaron Ramsey.
Vote: Milner
