Alisson and Robertson should be axed while Salah flees to Saudi Arabia. We've picked five Liverpool players who should be discarded this summer.
Jurgen Klopp’s farewell tour is drawing to a close and Liverpool chiefs Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes will be busy boys as they attempt to ensure they don’t experience a Manchester United-like post-legacy manager slump.or some other poor sap faced with the impossible job of following the much-loved manager, they will be tasked with continuing the rebuild started but not finished by their predecessor.
The composite parts of a brilliant footballer are all there – he presses well, can score, dribble and take the ball in tight spaces – but combines them infrequently enough to raise doubts as to whether he will ever be good enough to be a staple in a team challenging for titles. He’s still only 23, but this is his fourth full season in the Liverpool first team, and at some point we have to expect the volatility of youth to make way for consistency at the top level.
Klopp and Salah owe so much to each other. Liverpool wouldn’t have had half of their success under the German boss had Salah not joined from Roma in 2017. Deemed something of a gamble at the time given his lack of impact at Chelsea, Salah has become a Liverpool and Premier League legend, with only Ian Rush and Roger Hunt scoring more than his 210 goals for the club, and of players in the top 100 all-time goalscorers for Liverpool, only Luis Suarez has a better goals-per-game ratio than Salah .
Liverpool will be compensated handsomely for losing a player with a year left on his contract and Salah can see out his days in Saudi Arabia, as was apparently his wish last summer.Last season we were all wondering who Liverpool would sign as Konate’s new centre-back partner. The Frenchman’s place was assured as we watched Van Dijk’s slow decline.
