Since the arrival of Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool FC has changed not just in FIFA. We show you how big the difference is between Klopp's first starting XI from 2015 compared to his super squad in 2022.
Almost every position has been upgraded – but he still has a few loyal players at his side. See Liverpool under Klopp throughout the years.

GK: Simon Mignolet vs. Alisson Becker
Belgian Mignolet lost his place between posts to Loris Karius in 2017. But the times of the former Mainz player are also over. Because with Alisson, there is no longer any question as to who is the clear number 1 of the Reds. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
RB: Nathaniel Clyne vs. Trent Alexander-Arnold
Clyne was often injured and had to accept his goodbye in 2020. Klopp has a clear talent in Alexander-Arnold – the guy is already considered world-class and is 23 years young. His crosses are feared, not just in FIFA. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
CB: Martin Skrtel vs. Joel Matip
Skrtl was considered a classic tough guy. Do you remember how Matip was laughed at when he arrived at Liverpool? Klopp has turned him into a very good Premier League player who was voted February's Player of the Month in FIFA 22 for a reason. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
CB: Mamadou Sakho vs. Virgil van Dijk
Way too expensive. Far too much money for a central defender. How can Klopp pay £75m. for van Dijk? Yesterday's news, the Dutchman has become one of the best in the world. No center back has a higher OVR than him. And just again as a fun fact: United paid £80m. for Maguire. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
LB: Alberto Moreno vs. Andrew Robertson
Same story. Who is the Scot from the second tier? Robertson is doing great since his first games for Liverpool. His crosses are excellent. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
CDM: Lucas Leiva vs. Fabinho
Apart from the nation, Lucas and Fabinho have little in common. Ok, ok, both are playing as CDM. But Fabinho has significantly higher quality than his compatriot. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
CM: Emre Can vs. Thiago
Here, too, there is a kind of connection between "old" and "new", because both played at times at Bayern Munich. Thiago has a much better ball security than today's BVB player. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
CM: James Milner vs. Jordan Henderson
Milner is still an important part of the squad for the 2020 English champions, but Henderson (at the club since 2011) has meanwhile developed into a leader and is the captain.

RW: Adam Lallana vs. Mohamed Salah
Lallana was once named a 'legend' by Klopp. In fact, he was considered indispensable in the early days of the German coach – but then had to watch injured as offensive newcomers outstripped him. When Salah joined England from AS Roma in 2017, fans had some question marks... Is he good enough for the Premier League? The Egyptian delivered impressively, is the top scorer in one season in England with 32 goals and is not only in FIFA a miracle on the ball. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
LW: Philippe Coutinho vs. Sadio Mane
Well, well, well... Coutinho. A story in itself. Under Klopp, the Brazilian was at his peak. He enchanted the entire league before FC Barcelona could buy him. There it went steadily downhill for him – after a short time at Bayern Munich, he ended up at Aston Villa. Mane, on the other hand, took the LFC attack to new heights. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
ST: Divock Origi vs. Roberto Firmino
From regular player to super sub. Does Firmino suffer the same fate? Shortly before Klopp took over, the attacker was signed by TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. However, the center forward is currently facing serious competition from the Portuguese Diogo Jota – who only has an OVR of 82 in FIFA 22. | © EA Sports / EarlyGame
