'He's a machine' - Wijnaldum heaps praise on Milner after Premier League landmark

The Liverpool vice-captain became the 13th player to reach 500 appearances in the Reds' win at Bournemouth

Georginio Wijnaldum has paid tribute to fellow Liverpool midfielder James Milner after the 32-year-old stalwart made his 500th Premier League appearance last weekend.

The former England international has enjoyed a hugely successful career in the English top flight after spells with hometown club Leeds United, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Manchester City and Liverpool.

Many are of the opinion that Milner is getting better with age, with the midfielder having already registered five goals and three assists so far this season.
