Qwiss I think we should be cautious about writing off Salah. I thought he was done during Klopp's last season, I maintained throughout the season his stats were excellent but his all round game wasn't all that. Fast forward few months later, he looked a way better player and proceeded to probably have his season for Liverpool. Unfortunately, it looks like his career in his 30s will look more like Cristiano Ronaldo's than Wayne Rooney's.
In my humble opinion Liverpool's midfield 3 of Gravenberg-Mac Allister-Wirtz is more technical and creative than ours, I'd say ours is more robust/better defensively though. They have a very attacking midfield, even Gravenberg, who is their most defensive player is actually attack minded. Their midfield configuration reminds me of Barca's.
Trent will be a huge miss for them but they actually replaced him with one of the most productive fullbacks in Europe. I read somewhere Frimpong had 30 goals amd 44 assists in 190 matches for Leverkusen which are ridiculous numbers for a fullback. Of course there is no guarantee he will replicate that for Liverpool. I personally think they should play Szoboszlai at RB in the big games (which I hope they don't) he looks similar to Valverde when he plays there.
I am still gutted they got Isak in the end but ecstatic when I found out they couldn't complete the Guehi deal.
