Liverpool midfielder James Milner enjoyed a few more compliments after helping the team towards another important win in the Premier League on Saturday.
The 32-year-old moved to Anfield a couple of years ago after running down his contract at Manchester City and he has been a hit for the Reds ever since.
Despite the fact that Brighton proved to be a tougher nut to crack than many expected prior to the game on Saturday, a goal from Mohamed Salah in the first half was enough to clinch all of the three points for Jurgen Klopp’s side.
It was a game in which James Milner showed off more of his professionalism as the former Newcastle and Aston Villa star helped his side secure a victory which has placed them at the top of the Premier League table.
It came as no surprise as many fans heaped praises on Milner after the 1-0 win over Brighton.
Is James Milner 32 or 22? Never, ever stops.

Milner deserves a new contract. He's been our best midfielder tbh. Just edges Keita for me, but tbh they've both been great.

Milner has to take a lot of credit for the breakthrough. Did brilliantly to win the ball back. Mane and Firmino moved it quickly to Salah and the finish was top class. #LFC

I remember mocking Milner when he was famously nutmegged by Messi a few years back.
Think he may now be better than the great man.
