Which Liverpool player is the best dancer, has the worst haircut and is most likely to be eaten first in a zombie apocalypse has been discussed by two of the Reds' exciting young stars.
Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho sat down with BBC Sport to play a light-hearted game of honesty cards and in doing-so spilled the beans on some of their high-profile teammates. Elliott, 19, and Carvalho, 20, know each over well from before their time at Anfield. Not only were they both at Fulham before moving to Merseyside, but their relationship goes back even further as they were also in the same school.
"We've always been close, we played with each other at Fulham and trained with each other as well. It's nice to revisit that here at Liverpool and hopefully for many more years," said Elliott.

The pair sat down for an informal chat and provided their views on a number of questions put to them. When asked who had the best haircut in the team, Carvalho said: "I think it's Fabinho. I've said that before but people keep laughing at me. I'm being serious!"
Elliott added: "I think Virgil (van Dijk) has got a good one. The ponytails, waves, shape-up - I think he's been blessed with a good head of hair." But when asked who has the worst trim, the teenager said: "I'd hate to say it, because of the amount of stick I went through when I had it, but Darwin (Nunez). Because when I had my ponytail, honestly it was like...I don't even know."
A question about who the best dancer in the Liverpool team was then threw up a surprise candidate. "Oooh, I think Skip's got to be it. Jordan Henderson," claimed Elliott. But teammate Carvalho preferred a bit more South American flair. He said: "I think Lucio - Luis Diaz. He can dance a bit."
Carvalho then claimed to be able to dance a bit himself but declined the invitation of a demonstration. The interviewer took the line of questioning to new heights by asking 'In a zombie apocalypse, who is getting eaten first?' A laughing Elliott said: "Me! I just can't bothered to handle the fight. At the end of the day we're all probably going to die. I'd rather die first and get it over and done with."
The final question put to the boys asked if they could only invite two team-mates to their birthday party, who would they invite. Carvalho went for Elliott and close friend Diaz. Somewhat compelled by his friend's answer, Elliott also chose Carvalho but had an interesting second pick. He said: "I'm going to say James Milner as well. He can look after me and make sure that I don't do anything stupid."
Both Elliott and Carvalho will be vying for a place in Jurgen Klopp's starting XI when the Reds get their Premier League season back underway against Brighton on Saturday afternoon. A win for eighth-placed Liverpool will put them a point behind the fourth-placed Seagulls, who will be under the managership of new boss Roberto De Zerbi for the first time after Graham Potter joined Chelsea.
