Liverpool were the best team last year in the world, LA Galaxy full-back Insua told Stats Perform News. They kept almost the same team.
Now with Thiago and [Diogo] Jota, they want to be the best team in the world this year. It s a big signing for them. Thiago was showing at Bayern that he is almost the best midfielder in the world.
It s really important for Liverpool to keep growing and to keep the level they were at last season. Of course, I think they will maintain the same level this season.
After being crowned European champions in 2018-19, Liverpool finally ended their Premier League drought last term – the club s first league title since 1990.
Liverpool cruised to top-flight glory, with full-backs Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold instrumental to their success.
Fellow full-back Insua, who also played for Atletico Madrid and Stuttgart before joining MLS side the Galaxy this year, praised the duo but highlighted Liverpool s collective quality.
