Philippe Coutinho and Ousmane Dembele have been integrating themselves into the team perfectly after joining during the previous campaign. Juan Miranda and Ruqui Puiq were both called up to the senior team from the youth system while the likes of Munir El Haddadi and Rafinha Alcantara have all returned from loan spells.
