Now, this is it! I've been posting throughout the weekend and will probably go through the rest of the week to post the rest of the Deadline Day effects to our Liverpool life. Now, we go to CL stuff for a moment until we face Sevilla at Anfield for our first Group Stage match in a while. Here is the squad!
Squad List A
Goalkeeper
Loris Karius
Simon Mignolet
Danny Ward
Defenders
Dejan Lovren
Ragnar Klavan
Alberto Moreno
Andrew Robertson
Joël Matip
Jonathon Flanagan
Midfielders
Georginio Wijnaldum
James Milner
Philippe Coutinho
Jordan Henderson
Marko Grujić
Adam Lallana
Alexander Oxlade-Chamberlain
Emre Can
Forwards
Roberto Firmino
Mohamed Salah
Daniel Sturridge
Sadio Mané
Dominic Solanke
Squad B List
Defenders
Joe Gomez
Conor Masterson
Trent Alexander-Arnold
Midfielders
Cameron Brannagan
Ovie Ejaria
Sheyi Ojo
Forwards
Ryan Kent
Rhian Brewster
Ben Woodburn
Harry Wilson
We're supposed to have a squad of up to 25 players on the A list and a part of those, 8 have to be homegrown and 4 of those 8 have to be club trained. Since only Flanagan is the only one that is both club trained and homegrown, our squad is maxed out at 22. In the B list, we can basically list as many underage players that have been at the club for two seasons or more. Clyne's omission from the squad just shows how bad his injury could be, because there's been absolutely nothing on his front other than TAA and Gomes' stepping up quite nicely in the position. Danny Ings not being in there also may say something to others, but to me, he's had two bad knee injuries and he just needs to get back. PL and other cups would help that.
Good day, Reds!
