The transfer window is closed, so what is Liverpool’s strongest starting XI? Ade Oladipo looks at the options available to Andoni Iraola following the additions of Bradley Barcola and Victor Muñoz, while Cody Gakpo remains at Anfield. With Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz, Barcola and Gakpo competing for attacking places, how does Iraola fit everyone into his Liverpool team? And does he have the right balance in midfield and defence to challenge for the Premier League title? Ade picks Liverpool’s strongest XI and looks at the big selection decisions facing Iraola after a busy summer transfer window.
