CM) Jordan Henderson
Almost certainly set to be named captain for the upcoming campaign, and as such will be a regular in the side.
CM) James Milner
Largely used on the wing at Manchester City, but played some of his best football in the middle while at Aston Villa and showed it again when deputising for Yaya Toure last season.
LW) Pedro
If the Barcelona man joins the Reds it could mean that Sterling is on his way. Fans shouldn’t be worried though, the Spain international would be the perfect replacement.
RW) Philippe Coutinho
Likely to drift inside and effect the game as he did in the last campaign still, but the arrival of Firmino means that he could nominally be pushed wide.
CAM) Roberto Firmino
The Brazil international managed 12 goals and 10 assists for Hoffenheim last time round, and will hope to match that in the Premier League.
