On that note, let's take a look at the five Liverpool players who could decide the Premier League title race.

#5. Luis Diaz

Luis Diaz has been one of the signings of the season. The Colombian was previously with Porto and signed for the Anfield side earlier this year for a reported £37.5 million plus add-ons. His addition to the side has created an aura of excitement and ambition throughout Anfield.

Diaz took to English football almost instantly. He has been excellent so far, displaying a direct attacking approach with the perfect cocktail of skill and intelligence. Diaz has scored two goals in the Premier League in six appearances.

Jurgen Klopp on Luís Díaz:

“There is a reason why you sign a player. The reason is the quality he has. The reason is the way that he is playing the game. With Luis, where it has been really special is that when we saw him we knew that he would fit in immediately.” #awlive [sky] https://t.co/rFXO1bML2u

Diaz has already emerged as one of the side's key players and is considered by many to be the signing of the season. With the business end of the season coming up, Jurgen Klopp will be looking to Diaz to deliver and bring the Premier League title back to Anfield.

#4. Alisson Becker

Alisson Becker has been a mainstay in goal ever since he signed for Liverpool. He reportedly cost Liverpool around £67 million but has since paid several dividends with his performances. Alisson is considered by many to be the best goalkeeper in England and has put in displays to warrant this claim.

The 29-year-old signed from Roma in 2018 and has seen a meteoric rise in his career since. He was key to the Reds' Premier League and UEFA Champions League victories in the recent past and continues to perform at an extremely high level.

Alisson has kept 16 clean sheets this season and shares the top spot with his compatriot Ederson at Manchester City. Considering the attacking firepower that City have, Alisson could well be the difference in the Reds finishing first and second.
