We need to improve the squad. Our starting eleven is on par with the best in the world, but you can't play 60+ matches only with your best eleven in modern football.
LFC lost Moreno and Sturridge.
At the moment and at least for a season Larouci and Lewis are not and will not even be close at the required level of playing for a team fighting for the title and trying to win the CL. Milner is not the right option to play left back, especially when other teams play specialist winger vs. him. Just look at the way Zaha played vs. Milner, looked like there was no resistance at this situation and that is what happens when you don't have a specialist full back to cover you /happily for us Palace also did not have enough cover at GK and we won, but that is another reminder/.
We have a lot of players with poor injury record - Gomez, Lallana, Lovren, AOC, Matip. Sadly even Naby Keita is slowly going into the same group.
Matip has never played more than 29 PL games for Liverpool and every season since he signed for us he missed at least two months because of injuries.
Lovren has also never played more than 29 PL games for Liverpool and he has never managed to stay injury free and start 6 consecutive games for LFC.
Joe Gomez best season was in 2017/2018 when he played 23 PL games, after 4 seasons at Liverpool he has played just 53 PL games for LFC /that is exactly 13 games per season/. The talent is there, the quality is also there, but injuries happen every season and it is not a coincidence.
Lallana had two decent seasons for the club, but from 2017 till now he has played 26 games in the PL /only 7 starts/. And at the moment he is injured again, and competitive football is 3 week away, but still the same story.
Keita missed almost 3 months last season because of injuries. And at the moment he is still injured, I am not sure if he will have a proper preseason.
Shaqiri is injured too and there is a growing probability he won't be ready for the start of the season.
Mane is in top 8 of the players who played most minutes in Europe for the past 2 seasons, Salah has played more than him.
Firmino had a long and exhausting season and for a first time in his Liverpool career he missed more than a month because of injuries. On the top of that Bobby played almost every minute of Copa America.
There is no adeqaute cover for Robertson and in attacking areas. Kent and Wilson are good players, but if we aim for the highest prizes, they won't be the solution.
Sadly the club and some fans had the same hopes for players such as Klavan, Karius, Solanke, Ings, Ojo, Markovic, Ward.
Last season was the prime example of improving not only the first 11, but also the squad - Keita, Fabinho, Shaqiri, Alisson.
I don't want the club to spend money for the sake of it, but there are holes in the squad that must be fixed.
For example player like Ryan Sessegnon is available and with one strike we can solve two probles - left footer who can cover two positions on our left side.
Phillip Max is also a decent option for cover of TAA and Robbo.
Timo Werner is alailable for less then 35 mln. pounds.
Signing two young and promising players for 55-60 mln. pounds at today's crazy market is a no brainer, epsecially when LFC need bodies.
Now you can continue with the mantra that Wilson, Kent and Brewster are enough for us to win the title, but they are not. Rhian has the talent and hopefully he will become a great player for us, but at the moment he has never started for the club in any competition and nobody knows what will be his season. I expect that he will mostly start in cup competitions and Klopp will introduce him slowly as he does usually.
And every journos /with connections to the club/ wrote that if the right offer arrives Kent /club is asking 10-12 mln. pounds/ and Wilson /25 mln. pounds is the quoted number/ will be sold. In my opinion they are expendable for Klopp and that means only one thing, Juergen doesn't think that they can reach the level of Salah and Mane. As I said Brewester is a different story /it is enough to read how many times Klopp praised him which is not very usual from our manager/, but he will need time and guidance /again Klopp's words./
