10 Reasons Liverpool Will Win The Premier League This Year

5. Improved Squad Depth

This summer was always going to be a massive one at Anfield in terms of transfer activity. The exit of Suarez to Barcelona was inevitable, particularlry after his infamous bite of Giorgio Chiellini, and how Rodgers spent that money, and other funds, was critical because of the addition of Champions League football. Last season the 41-year-old had the luxury of being able to play virtually the same starting XI every week, without having to worry about tiredness and injuries. It will be very different this time around, and he will have to rotate his squad smartly, which makes keeping every player happy a tricky skill to master. The Northern Irishman has spent very wisely, bringing in almost 10 new players in varying positions. They now having virtually two strong players in every position, barring perhaps up front, and they are ready to launch an assault on both the domestic and European competitions. Whether it's the defensive purchases of Javier Manquillo, Dejan Lovren and Alberto Moreno, the added midfield guile of Adam Lallana and Emre Can or the additions of Lazar Markovic and Rickie Lambert in attacking areas, Rodgers has improved his squad hugely.
