Champions League: I can’t see their weaknesses – Coquelin names best team in Europe

Villarreal midfielder, Francis Coquelin has named Liverpool as the best team in Europe.

Coquelin admitted that he could not see Liverpool’s weaknesses, adding that the Premier League giants have two players who fight for Ballon d’Or.

The former Arsenal star said this ahead of Villarreal’s Champions League semi-final first-leg tie with Liverpool on Wednesday.

“Liverpool are probably the team that presses best,” Coquelin told the Guardian.

“I can’t really see where their weaknesses are. They attack so well and now they have [Ibrahima] Konate competing with [Joel] Matip. The left-back and the right-back are like strikers, basically.

“They have two players who fight for the Ballon d’Or, [Mohamed] Salah and [Sadio] Mane. Now they have signed Luis Diaz and he settles in like he has been there five years. They are the best team in Europe but, as a footballer, what do you want? To play this sort of game, travel around Europe.”
