Liverpool made it five wins in a row at the weekend, beating Swansea 2-1 at the Liberty Stadium.
A number of players stood out in the win, which takes Jurgen Klopp’s side to fourth, but one man singled-out by the plaudits was James Milner.
The 30-year-old was on hand to score an 84th winner from the spot after Roberto Firmino was fouled.
The former-England international has deservedly earned praise after a series of eye-catching displays at left-back.
Milner has not only impressed in open play, but also boasts four goals this season, all of which have come from the spot.
Liverpool had to come back from a goal down after Leroy Fer’s opener, with Firmino scoring the equaliser with his third of the season before Milner put his penalty away.
Klopp came in for criticism in the summer for not bringing in a new left-back to compete with Alberto Moreno, but if Milner keeps going as he is then the Spaniard’s error-prone performances will be a distant memory.
