Andoni Iraola has a lot on his plate. Hired to point Liverpool in the right direction again after last season’s disappointing fifth-place finish in the Premier League and underwhelming performances in Europe and the cup competitions, the summer has not been quite as smooth as many supporters had hoped.Mohamed Salah has left, departing Liverpool after nine years at Anfield. Andy Robertson was another stalwart who left over the summer, with Ibrahima Konaté joining Real Madrid as a free agent. Boss Arne Slot has also moved on, following an underwhelming second season at the helm.All of this pointed to a busy summer, yet Liverpool are still active in the transfer market. So far, they have signed winger Victor Muñoz from Osasuna and defender Jérémy Jacquet from Rennes, although the latter deal was agreed before the end of last season. Iraola is attempting to reshape Liverpool in his own image, but it remains unclear exactly what squad he will have at his disposal.At 11/2, Liverpool are third-favourites to win the 2026/27 Premier League title, reflecting how much talent is still at the club even after the departure of some key figures.Importantly, Liverpool must get more from the blockbuster signings they made 12 months ago if they are to fulfil their potential. Florian Wirtz created just five big chances across the entire Premier League season and found the net only six times. For a player who cost £116 million, he will need to deliver more consistently in and around the final third.Alexander Isak, meanwhile, started only eight league games because of injury. Even when fit, the Swedish striker struggled to hit top form after arriving from Newcastle United for a Premier League-record £130m fee. A full pre-season should help Isak build his fitness and sharpness ahead of the new campaign.
