These aren’t just five signings. These are the five players Liverpool need to win the Premier League. Andoni Iraola’s football is built on high pressing, high speed and controlled chaos. Liverpool already have some outstanding footballers in this squad, but to get the very best out of players like Wirtz, Isak, Gravenberch and Szoboszlai, they need more physicality, more athleticism and more players capable of playing Iraola’s relentless style. These are the five realistic signings that could take Liverpool from a good side to a title-winning one.

In this show we explain why FSG believed they had no choice. From the style of football and the growing disconnect with supporters, to the boos from the Anfield crowd and a summer that could see another £450 million invested in the squad, we discuss why Liverpool’s owners ultimately placed their faith in a different vision for the future.
