Liverpool's big plan

There's now a lot of evidence that Liverpool are actually looking to switch to a back three system going forward. One piece of evidence there is the transfers they made this summer.

The club signed wingbacks for their full-back roles, for one. They then broke a transfer record to sign Florian Wirtz - someone who thrived in a back-three system at Bayer Leverkusen.

Liverpool also didn't buy any wingers. That would certainly make sense for a squad that doesn't plan on using out-and-out wingers long term.

What about also signing two elite strikers? Well, that makes a lot more sense if the grand plan is to have two or three more central forwards. Like you'd typically see in any back-three system.

Then there are the new targets. Liverpool have eyes on Marc Guehi, Nico Schlotterbeck (per Bild) and Diogo Leite (per Milan Live). All three are centre-backs used to playing in a back three.

Right now, the plan doesn't make sense. Liverpool appear to have signed a lot of players who don't fit together.

But through the prism of a back-three, everything does actually fit together quite nicely.
