You don't need 4 - you don't have to name a 25-man squad.

But Davies, Gomez, Quansah, Jones, Morton, Bradley, Elliott, Beck I would assume all count as club-trained for UEFA comps.

A list of Liverpool's current squad, split into 18 non-homegrown players (only 17 are allowed in a Premier League squad), 9 homegrown (Liverpool can only select 8 if they wish to name 17 non-homegrown players), notable U22 players (born 2004 or later), and players out on loan.

After the arrival of Florian Wirtz, here's Liverpool's current Premier League squad situation next season.

#LFC have now exceeded the number of non-homegrown players allowed in a squad, so one must leave, then it's a one in, one out scenario for the rest of this transfer window.

Teammates.

Despite only playing 67 times for Liverpool in all competitions, Caoimhín Kelleher has won more penalty shootouts (4) and saved more penalties in shootouts (6) than any other goalkeeper in the club's entire history.

Farewell Kweev! #LFC

And yet arguably his most iconic shootout is one where he faced 11 and didn't save any 😂

Caoimhín Kelleher has the highest win rate of any goalkeeper to make 50+ apps for #LFC in all comps in the club's history:

C Kelleher - 65.7%
Alisson - 65.4%
N Doig - 64.2%
B Grobbelaar - 57.6%
S Westerveld - 56.3%
B Slater - 55.5%

A table showing various Mo Salah stats in the Premier League this season where he topped the rankings, including goals, assists, shots, open play chances created, xG, open play xA, among others.

Mohamed Salah, ladies and gentlemen. 👑🏆

Mo Salah is only the second player in Liverpool's history to finish at the club's top scorer in 8 consecutive seasons (2017-18 to 2024-25), after Roger Hunt from 1961-62 to 1968-69. #LFC

Crystal Palace are the 20th club Mo Salah has scored against this season - only the 5th time a player has scored v 20+ teams in a single season for #LFC:

Roger Hunt 1964-65 (21)
Kenny Dalglish 1977-78 (20)
Ian Rush 1983-84 (25)
Mo Salah 2017-18 (23)
🆕️Mo Salah 2024-25 (20)

Mo Salah is the first forward to start every game of a title-winning league season for #LFC since Kenny Dalglish in 1982-83.

A table showing the best minutes-per-assist rates for Liverpool in all competitions in the Premier League era. Conor Bradley tops the list with 282, following by Jermaine Pennant (286), Mo Salah (296), Vladimir Smicer (323), and Trent Alexander-Arnold (327).

Best mins/assist rates (10+ assists) for Liverpool in all comps since 1992-93. #LFC

Federico Chiesa is the first player to lose 6 consecutive appearances for Liverpool in all competitions since David Thompson from November to December 1998.

Chiesa had won all of his first 8 games for #LFC before this, a joint-club record winning start.

Liverpool have now scored in 100% of their away games in an entire league season for the first time in the club's history.

They have also scored in 21 consecutive away top-flight matches overall for the first time ever. #LFC

Mo Salah is the 28th player to reach 400 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, and only the third non-British/Irish player - after Bruce Grobbelaar (628) and Sami Hyypiä (464).

Captain tonight. #LFC

Between them, Everton, Man Utd, and Tottenham have lost 51 of their 110 Premier League games this season.

That's more than Liverpool have lost in 370 league matches under Jürgen Klopp and Arne Slot combined (50).

Yep - this is 2021-22 and the start of 2022-23 before Alonso arrived.

How often do Liverpool surrender a two-goal half-time lead at Anfield?

How long overdue was that Robertson assist?

Answers to those questions and more in my round-up for Liverpool's draw against Arsenal - including Gakpo matching a Salah record! #LFC

Liverpool have had seven 2-2 or 3-3 draws in the Premier League this season.

It's their most 4+ goal score draws in a top-flight season since 1938-39 (also 7). #LFC

Cody Gakpo is only the second player in history to score in 10 consecutive starts at Anfield for Liverpool, after Mo Salah from December 2017 to April 2018. #LFC

This weekend will be Liverpool's sixth consecutive game played on a Sunday in all competitions (all in Premier League).

It's the club's longest ever run of games (both league only and all comps) to be played on the same day of the week other than a Saturday. #LFC

You say pointless, I say that for the greater good Leeds must agree to stay in the Championship next season.

This is the 4th season that both Leeds United have won the 2nd tier & Liverpool have won the top-flight, after 1963-64, 1989-90, & 2019-20.

It's now the all-time English record for most times a specific club has won the 2nd tier at the same time another also won the top-flight.
