Corey Bevan

Liverpool’s perfect summer window: Outgoing: - Gomez £10m - Endō £10m - Tsimikas £12m - Robertson Free - Konaté Free - Mac Allister £75m - Chiesa £14m - Salah £125m - Elliott £35m - Gakpo £75m Total: £365m Incoming: - Olisé £105m - Mickey van de Ven £65m - Archie Gray £60m - Gordon £100m - Wharton £80m - Promote Luke Chambers - Bajčetić takes over Endō’s role - Jayden Danns stays to be 3rd CF - Trey Nyoni takes next step - Josh Abe starts being integrated as RW back up, like Rio this season. Total: £370m Squad composition: GKs: Alisson, Mamardashvili, Jaros, Woodman CBs: Virgil, Jacquet, Leoni, VdV, Mor Talla Ndiaye, Ndukwe, Adekoya, Lucky FBs: Bradley, Frimpong, Kerkez, Chambers 6/8: Gravenberch, Gray, Bajčetić, Wharton, Curtis Jones 8/10: Wirtz, Szoboszlai, Nyoni LW: Gordon, Ngumoha RW: Olisé, Abe, Morrison CF: Isak, Ekitike But the true beauty here is how many players you have who can cover other positions. RB cover: Archie Gray, Szoboszlai. LB cover: Van de Ven LW alt: Ekitike, Wirtz RW alt: Gordon You keep a small, positive squad who all get the game time they want + competition in key positions (Rio takes the next steps developmentally, pushing for more minutes which keeps Gordon at his intense best every week), solid midfield depth and competition. Slot gets to play his regular XI all the time as he likes to, but when he has injuries or rotates for cup games, he still has top quality players and depth in defence. We can challenge for a treble with this, if injuries aren’t too long term during the season.
