Until now in this winter transfer window, Liverpool recruited two attacking midfielders. Firmino who left them for free to join Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia league, left his spot to Darwin Nunez only, who should improve more and more to boost the team scoring ability. Mohamed Salah is the only right winger too but there is Gakpo who could play in this position too. I find the attacking line quite limited along with the number of players in Liverpool comparing to other teams.
Likely Nunez will play better in his second season in Premier League and he will play at a striker position. Mo Salah surely will get one position at the right swing and the left swing will belong to either Gakpo or Jota or even Diaz.
Nunez potentially scores more goals for Liverpool but he will be less contributed to the team operation as a bridge between midfielders and two wingers like Firmino. Scoring goals is not the only task which will be assigned to Darwin in a next season.
During the last season, Liverpool performed well and even came very close to winning a champions league ticket for the next season, but in the end, they didn't have the potential to win that ticket and they lost it to Newcastle United. As Liverpool is currently in good form, I think it is possible for them to be an excellent candidate for the Europa League next year.
If the past season lasts a little bit longer like 5 more matches, Liverpool can end in top four. They got too many troubles in early months of seasons and only came back strongly months after World Cup 2022. Their come back was too late and could not help them to complete the season in top four. Many analyses say like Liverpool got side effects from two seasons ago with which they aimed at four titles in that season but failed and they began the past seasons with exhausted players. Consequently many of their players got injuries in the past season and affected their general performances not only in Premier League but also in Champions League.
We are unable to know about their actual reasons but at least they must work with medical team and staffs to take care of their player fitness and bodies, minimize injury cases in a new season.
