People said 4/5 years ago he’d never get back to his best due to the knee injury rofl
He is not back to his best, that's bs or people don't watch him very often. He has declined quite substantially over the last year .He is still very good though when his mind is in it. He had 2 games in row now that has been on a high level, the games before that`? not so much.

I watch him way more than you obviously and he's back to a very high level. Sure he isn't as invincible as he was in 18/19 which is the highest a CB has peaked in the modern era by far but he's still at a very very high level.

Far and away the best CB itw currently.

Declined quite substantially is way off the mark. He was excellent last season and has started this season even better carrying our team. He's ageing as well as a Footballer can naturally do.

I watch him every week, every game, its hardly possible to watch him more if you dont live on the training ground.
He fell of something remarkable last season, making silly mistakes that he would never do a couple of years ago. This season? started the same, slow, nonchalannt, not there position wise, same story as the end of last season. But its you and you are Liverpool supporter, of course you would look at him through a subjective lens.

He is getting too much hype from Liverpool's unsustainable run. They've been unbelievably lucky. Luckily for others, luck always runs out.
Unfortunately for us others they will be probably be better once they click and not need luck in the same degree...right now they look very unbalanced to me which probably will get corrected in time.

He is unlikely to ever have the amount of accomplishments to get that title, which matters a lot in those discussing.

Maybe if he continues at high level for another hallf decade and win a couple of CL or something, but odds are against him.

Best of his generation is the most likely answer.
