Martin Skrtel has been Liverpool's player of the season, according to his centre-back partner Daniel Agger.

Skrtel played every minute of every league game for the Reds last season - and has built on that this term with a series of commanding performances at the back.

One of the highlights of his season so far was a goal in the Carling Cup final against Cardiff City, one of four strikes for the Slovakian in 2011-12.

Fellow defenders Jose Enrique and Jamie Carragher have already voiced their appreciation in recent months, and Agger has joined their number.

Asked who'd get his vote for LFC player of the season, the Dane told the Official Matchday Programme: "Martin, without a doubt. I don't think there is any other choice.

"He has been so consistent.

"I'm not sure how many years he has been here but he's improved every season. This year he has become better and better.

"I think in most games he has been our man of the match.".
