It is not only the president of Liverpool that is not happy with the outcome of Liverpool for last season. I also I am not happy about the result of Liverpool. The worst thing that would have happened to Liverpool is that they did not win the EPL and they did not end second or third, but at least they were supposed to be in the top four. Before they could realise what was happening, it was already late for Liverpool.
For this new season. I am not sure that Liverpool would not be able to win the English Premier League. The only favourite to win the English Premier League remains Manchester City, every other club is in the second place.
Liverpool have reaped a failure this season none other than because they made a blunder by releasing Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich which made the balance of Liverpool front line undirected since the start of the season. We have seen how Liverpool performed at the start of the season where they were easily beaten by other teams. I think that's Liverpool's weakness this season.
Liverpool failure to close the season in the top 4 was indeed very bitterly accepted by fans because several players brought in by Liverpool were unable to make a big contribution, such as Nunez and Gakpo. But for next season I can't say that Liverpool will really rise to win the trophy EPL because their strength is still weak enough to get rid of Manchester City.
We see how Liverpool have to fight very hard this season to make them in the top 5 of the standings. In my opinion, Sadio Mane is not the main reason why they had to reap failures this season, but they did experience a decline in all positions, especially in midfield when many of the main players were left because of the injuries they had. It was proven by their return from injury, how they were able to find their game form, even though it was very late. Their recent line has also done the same thing, they looked fragile and were easily penetrated by the opponent's attack line so they conceded many goals and suffered defeats.
There are too many players there so Chelsea need to make reductions and Pochettino as the new manager there where not as someone involved in buying these players will choose which one he thinks will be suitable as a starting XI and also a reserve so that his team is competitive. Mason Mount has long been rumored to want to leave Chelsea due to dissatisfaction with the wages being earned, with other players still around Chelsea should be able to cover well the place Mason is likely to leave.
Indeed there is a need of making the squad better in this summer. I have talked about a need of a striker only but it isn't the only problem in this team of course. Besides they have actually signed Nkunku for the attacking line which would be a really nice improvement. But I don't know if they are planning to make do with this about striker transfer.
Apart from that I hope another thing not to happen. You know they signed Werner as well from Leipzig but there was no impressive performance left in him after coming to the Premier League. He was a great scorer in the Bundesliga. I hope the situation with Nkunku doesn't become similar to that as well.
They have a lot of failed purchases and it's just a waste of money they do. Of the many players they have brought in this season, how many players can make a big contribution? I can even say that not a single player has contributed this season.
Like it or not, they have to reshuffle, unless their new coach can convince that the existing players he can rely on and give something he wants with the strategy he has. But would he be able to do that, if not much change? I wouldn't say I could and I wouldn't say I couldn't either.
