A number of Liverpool supporters have been hailing Thiago’s brilliance following a hugely influential end to the season for the Reds.
Jurgen Klopp’s men may have experienced a difficult campaign, but they ended it in strong fashion, sealing a third-placed finish in the Premier League. Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, coupled with Chelsea and Leicester City losing, completed an achievement which looked highly unlikely back in March after they had lost six successive home games.

The Reds won eight and drew two of their final 10 league matches, with a number of players going up a gear having disappointed earlier in the season. One of those was Thiago, who was arguably the exceptional performer in the latter weeks of 2020/21, playing brilliantly against Palace once again.
The 30-year-old posted a 91% passing accuracy rate and played nine accurate long balls yesterday, along with winning five tackles and 12 duels in a fantastic all-round performance (Sofascore).
The Spaniard posted on his Twitter page after Sunday’s win, admitting that it has been a strange season but one which ultimately ended well.
