 Trent Alexander-Arnold is a homegrown player for Liverpool FC, he started in the academy and was brought up to the starting team by coach Jurgen Klopp. Since the arrival he started playing for the national team (England) and even played in the FIFA world cup where they made it to the semi finals. When Trent was 6 years of age his local team Liverpool won the champions league (2005) and their team bus came down the street during the celebration he was sure he would be there someday... ... And in the 2019 champions league he made that dream come true and even got an assist in the 3rd last minute. The year after he won the first premier league title for Liverpool in 30 years. This season he has captained Liverpool for the first time against FC Mydtjylland but sadly was left out of the English national team in March. For redemption he got three assists and a goal in his next two games, so maybe that will make Gareth Southgate think twice about him! To see more Player Spotlights go to: MOR

Robert Lewandowski is often referred to as one of the best strikers of the last decade. In 2010, he transferred from Polish top-flight club, Lech Poznań,  to Dortmund who he helped win two consecutive  Bundesliga titles and one top scorer award. Then in 2014, he made a transfer that changed everything... Robert Lewandowski He transferred to Dortmunds rival club, Bayern Munich and progressed to win 6 consecutive Bundesliga titles and in the 2019-20 season Bayern won the treble (League, Cup and Champions League) where Lewandowski was essential to their success winning top scorer in all three competitions. He is also captain of the Polish national team where he is Poland's all time scorer with 66 goals. In 2020, Lewandowski won best FIFA men's player and best UEFA men's player. Lewandowski now has over 500 goals for club and country.

 Jesse Lingard made a big decision early on in his career to play with Manchester United and at the time it was a good decision. Man U just won a bunch of prems and a couple champions leagues but then came the fall of glory and United became a team where they buy star youngsters and turn them into bench warmers, another team that now does this is Real Madrid. Recently though he was sent on loan from Manchester to West Ham where he has scored eight goals and three assists. He’s even gotten them into a champions league spot which for West Ham is like winning the World Cup. Sadly Man U will have to take him back and maybe then he could get playing time at United but till then keep watching him dominate with the hammers!

 Kylian Mbappé first showed the world who he was in the 2018 World Cup in Russia where he scored 4 goals one of which was in the final where they beat Croatia 4-2. Immediately after the World Cup he was signed by PSG from Monaco for €180 million which made him the most expensive teenager ever and the 2nd most expensive player ever following teammate Neymar Jr. Since joining one the best teams in the world Mbappé has won ligue 1 thrice and is PSG’s third top scorer in history already. Rumours have said though in the past that he might be interested in leaving the club to go to Liverpool but with the form they’ve been having he’s probably staying under his new manager m Mauricio Pochettino.

 How did Erling Haaland rise from being a hat-trick scoring kid for RB Salzburg to being one of the players all teams want? He started being recognised in 2019 when he scored against Liverpool in the group stage of the champions league, others from the team also got recognised including Minamino who went to Liverpool. So why did Erling Haaland transfer to Dortmund and not somewhere in England where his dad played professionally. He probably wasn't thinking everybody wanted him at the time and took the first big offer he could. In his first game playing for his new club he scored a hat-trick and made a friendship with teammate Thorgan Hazard.  In 2020 Haaland was awarded The Golden Boy award for best under-21 player. Since then Erling Haaland has made a big impact in the bundesliga and champions league reaching top scorer at the moment and catching the eye of big teams like Machester City and Chelsea. So where will he go next or will he choose to stay? If you have an opinion put it

  This week 12  of the most elite teams in Europe have decided to take place in a league that is a complete scam, since Covid-19 hit each team has lost money and to gain it back they have chosen to participate in a scam that will bounce back their revenue and allow them to purchase more expensive players. The only problem is that both FIFA and UEFA have declared that any team participating in this Super League will not be able to play in any of their competitions. The 12 teams participating so far are: Tottenham, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, both Milans and Juventus. All these teams have chimed in to create this fantastic sounding league but now that they're all gone imagine how boring leagues like the champions league will be being dominated by PSG and Bayern Munich.
