The past twelve months have been something of a rollercoaster ride for Liverpool supporters.

The Merseysiders rather underachieved in the Premier League last season, before two cup finals (the Captial One Cup and Europa League) left Reds fans watering at the mouth regarding the club's long-term future under Jurgen Klopp.

Nonetheless, this season has already been something special for supporters to savour as Klopp's side have recorded Liverpool's highest ever points tally for this stage of a Premier League campaign.

The Anfield outfit have suffered just two defeats in domestically and also find themselves in the semi-final of the Capital One Cup once more.

During this time, the Reds have mustered up some remarkable strikes. But which ones are the best? We have decided to open our vaults and count down the Merseysiders' greatest goals from the calendar year.

Here are FIVE Liverpool goals that were the best in 2016 - let us know your favourite in the comments section below!

5. Emre Can - Bournemouth

Not many expected Bournemouth and Liverpool to become a Premier League classic when the two clubs met in November.

Despite the Reds suffering a last-minute 4-3 defeat to Eddie Howe's side, one goal, in particular, lives long in the memory for supporters.

Emre Can's wonder strike gave Klopp's side a 3-1 lead after the German international beautifully curled the ball into the top corner from outside the box.

4. Dejan Lovren - Borussia Dortmund

 

It may not be the best technical goal of 2016, but Dejan Lovren's stoppage time header against Borussia Dortmund saw the Reds overcome one of European football's greatest sides and Klopp's former club.

European nights at Anfield are always special and the game against the German outfit certainly falls into the category.

3. Philippe Coutinho - Arsenal

As far as free-kicks go, not many would be able to overcome the quality of Philippe Coutinho's at the Emirates Stadium in August.

The Brazilian magician's unstoppable shot didn't allow Petr Cech a chance to prevent a moment of sheer brilliance in the Arsenal goal.

2. Jordan Henderson - Chelsea

Jordan Henderson doesn't score many for the Merseysiders, but when he does, they always seem to be incredible strikes.

Henderson's goal at Stamford Bridge this season was the difference between the two sides as Liverpool ran out 1-2 winners to inflict a first Premier League defeat upon Antonio Conte.

The Kopites will forever remember Henderson's goal - an incredible shot that gave Thibaut Courtois no chance.

1. Sadio Mané - Arsenal

When you join one of the biggest clubs in world football for £36million fee, what's the best way to silence your critics?

Simple. On your debut against one of your fellow title rivals, pick up the ball forty yards from goal, run at the heart of the defence, dance your way around it and fire an unstoppable shot to give your new team the victory.

Since then, nobody's dared to claim Sadio Mane is overrated.
