"Former Ballon d'Or winner Owen, who knows all about the demands of leading Liverpool's attack, sees the potential for something truly extraordinary in Arne Slot's new forward options. It could be the most formidable attack in the world, Owen tells FourFourTwo on behalf of Casimba Gaming, And it's not like it used to be when you had certain players for certain positions and that was that. There are so many games, so much rotation, that everybody is key."
"Still, not everyone can start, and Owen is fully aware of the looming dilemma that faces Slot. They can't all play every game, he says. But there will be a lot of matches, there will be injuries, there will be losses of form. It'll be interesting, obviously, when everyone is fit and there's a big game. Who will Slot choose to start? But that's a lovely problem every manager would be envious of."
Alexander Isak is set to join Liverpool on transfer deadline day, joining a revamped frontline that already includes Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo. Liverpool have invested around 300 million on new attackers despite winning the title last season. A former Ballon d'Or winner envisages the new forward options forming the most formidable attack in world football. The expanded attacking group creates selection dilemmas because not everyone can start every match; rotation, injuries and dips in form will determine lineups. Arne Slot aims to retain the Premier League crown while managing squad rotation across many fixtures.
