In looking at the potential team sheet for the UEFA Champions League Clash at RB Leipzig, one can’t help but think the end of an era is coming. This season is certainly taking on a bit of a “one last ride” feeling, with the futures of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah uncertain.
All three could walk this summer, and the Merseyside club could nothing for all of them.
