Class.

Shaqiri has made a fantastic start to his Liverpool career after his £13.5 million move from relegated Stoke City.

Despite playing a bit-part role, the 27-year-old has chipped in with five goals and three assists in his 17 matches so far.

Oh, and he single-handedly made sure Mourinho was dismissed as United manager.

As Van Dijk said, "Big Shaq" is very much in the building.
