How Liverpool could have lined up if they hadn’t sold their best players

Midfielders- Philippe Coutinho, Gini Wijnaldum & Naby Keita.

Liverpool are missing Coutinho's creativity

One of the most talented midfielders of his generation, Philippe Coutinho joined Liverpool from Inter Milan in 2013 and spent five years with the Merseyside based club.

He made 152 Premier League appearances for Liverpool, scoring 41 goals. Coutinho won the Liverpool Players' Player of the Season award twice and was also included in the PFA Team of the Season 2014-2015.

The Brazillian left Liverpool to join Barcelona in 2018 and is currently a key player for the Blaugrana.

The Dutch international, Gini Wijnaldum may not be as popular as some of his teammates, however, he is a top player and is an integral part of Liverpool's midfield.

Wijnaldum joined Liverpool from Newcastle in 2016 and has played 80 Premier League games for the Reds thus far, scoring eight goals. He is a golden thread in the team and knits the defence with attack.

Naby Keita struggled with injuries during his early Liverpool days, nonetheless, he is a top player and is among the most technically gifted midfielders in the current Liverpool squad.

Keita impressed during his spell with RB Leipzig and even made Jurgen Klopp ready to wait for a year to secure the services of the talented midfielder. He was officially signed for the Reds in the summer transfer window of 2018.

The 23-year-old was a part of the Bundesliga Team of the Season 2016-17 and also included in the Champions League Team of the Year 2018. Keita played 58 Bundesliga games for RBL and scored 14 goals in the process.
