Fans can’t quite believe Luis Diaz’s all-time Liverpool five-a-side team.
Back in January 2022, Diaz left Portuguese side Porto for Liverpool in a deal worth a reported initial fee of £37.5 million.
Since then, Diaz has become one of Jurgen Klopp’s most important players after scoring 14 goals in 56 matches across all competitions.
In a recent video posted on TikTok, Diaz left Liverpool fans baffled after he picked his all-time Reds five-a-side team. You can watch the footage below.

The Colombian picked Alisson Becker as the goalkeeper, Virgil van Dijk in defence, Steven Gerrard in midfield, Swiss winger Xherdan Shaqiri and club legend Kenny Dalglish.
Fans were left baffled by Diaz’s decision to pick Shaqiri.
One said: “Shaq was such a strange player. Ill always love him because he had that magic in him but just can't do it anywhere but his national team.”
Another commented: “Talk about an unexpected shout.”
A third fan added: “Didn’t see that coming.”
Someone else wrote: “Shaqiri but not Salah hahaha.”
Whilst a fifth said: “Xhedran Shaqiri is in Luis Diaz Liverpool all time 5 a side team. Interesting.”
Over the last few weeks, Diaz has made headlines after he had a goal wrongly ruled out by VAR during Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.
Since that controversial moment, the PGMOL have been forced to release the VAR audio from the incident.
After that, Reds boss Klopp suggested that the match should be replayed as a result of the VAR mishap.
Diaz and Liverpool will be back in Premier League action this weekend as they take on Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday afternoon.
