GK: Victor Valdes

The former Barcelona goalkeeper could be brought in on a free transfer and replace the error prone Simon Mignolet.

RB: Jon Flanagan

The Englishman will likely replace Javier Manquillo when he reaches full fitness. 

LB: Alberto Moreno

The Spaniard has been one of Liverpool’s success stories so far this season and will continue to improve.

CB: Dejan Lovren

The Croatian centre-back hasn’t had a great start to his Liverpool career but should improve as the season progresses.

CB: Martin Skrtel

The defender is experienced and that should help the Reds defence as the season goes on.

CM: Steven Gerrard

Despite his poor recent form, Gerrard is still the first name on Brendan Rodgers team sheet.

CM: Jordan Henderson

The England midfielder has improved a lot in recent times and will keep his place in the side despite several new arrivals in January.

RW: Raheem Sterling

The 19-year-old is fast becoming the most important player in Liverpool’s squad and should be given as much licence to attack as possible.

LW) Ezequiel Lavezzi

The Argentine is currently not getting in the PSG starting XI so could look for a transfer in January. Liverpool will be interested as Lavezzi will add pace and skill to Rodgers side.

ST: Gonzalo Higuain

After becoming fed up with life at Napoli, Higuain is ready to move on and Anfield appears to be his most likely destination.

ST: Daniel Sturridge

The England international has become one of the Premier League’s most deadly strikers and should form a devastating partnership with Higuain.
