Premier League 2018-19: Analysing the Big Six before new season

Chester FC v Liverpool - Pre-Season Friendly

LIVERPOOL

Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side raised everyone's eyebrows when they reached the Champions League Final out of nowhere. In the Premier League, The Reds' attacking trident of Salah, Firmino and Mane scored an astonishing 57 goals between each other.

The arrival of Fabinho and Naby Keita from Monaco and Leipzig respectively has strengthened the midfield. The duo is likely to be paired with Henderson to complete the midfield.

Another big name Allison Becker was bought for a world record fee from Roma. He is more than likely to be the first-choice keeper for Liverpool given the pre-season fiascos of Loris Karius.

One must not underestimate the ability of Liverpool's defense, which has been more solid and less vulnerable since Van Dijk's arrival in January. Klopp will have to take the call for who will be his defensive partner this season, with Lovren and Matip in contention.

Liverpool appear to be one of the most balanced teams going into the season and it will be exciting to see how they perform against tough opponents after an emphatic summer spending spree.
