James Milner has been handed an award for amassing over 500 Premier League appearances.
The veteran midfielder has racked up the impressive number of games over his 16 year career in the top flight.
Milner received the award at Melwood on Wednesday, and became the 13th player to rack up 500 games in the Premier League.
The 32-year-old started off his career in the Premier League career with Leeds United in 2002, before switching to Newcastle in 2004.
Aston Villa would be the next destination for Milner, initially joining on loan before making the move permanent.
Milner would then move to Manchester City, where he would pick up two Premier League winners medals and rack up over 147 appearances in the top flight.
The Yorkshireman then made the switch to Liverpool in 2015 on a free, and has made over 111 league appearances for the Reds.
Milner joins the ranks of players such as Gareth Barry and Steven Gerrard, who all hit the magic number of 500.
