Roberto Firmino has revealed who he believes are the best players in the Premier League - and included one shock name.
The Liverpool star named English football's most recognisable players in his assessment, but the inclusion of one Tottenham midfielder will be sure to result in a few scratched heads.
Firmino, who has scored 23 goals this season himself, started off his little list by naming team-mate Mohamed Salah and Spurs striker Harry Kane.
"We have great players in English football, it's hard to select one as the outright best," Firmino told GOAL.
"That's why it's the most popular league with many quality teams. We can talk about the goalscorers Salah and Harry Kane."

The 26-year-old then went on to list players specifically by club, starting with the Manchester teams.
"We also have Gabriel Jesus, Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan in Manchester City," added Firmino.
"Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku at Manchester United."

But it was when he came the London clubs that he named his shock choice.
"Moussa Sissoko and Mousa Dembele at Tottenham," continued the Reds star.
"Willian and Eden Hazard at Chelsea, Mesut Ozil at Arsenal."

Firmino then finally mentioned his team-mates, adding: "Not to mention Mane, Emre Can, Dejan Lovren and the many other good players we have here at Liverpool.
"It is a league with great stars. Virtually everyone I mentioned will be at the World Cup. The level is very high."
