Liverpool currently have too many players on their books that have not contributed to the majority of results this season. If you discount all players that have made fewer than 10 appearances this season, Liverpool have a base squad of 18 players. In addition, Liverpool have 10 players to have made an appearance this season (four of which are officially members of the U23 squad), 2 goalkeepers, and 14 additional players away on loan.

I've separated the players into two categories for the polls below.

The primary squad
The supporting cast

I've limited the amount of players to generally "first-team" players. I've removed Woodburn, Wilson, Ojo and Alexander-Arnold as appearance makers who are unlikely to be sold (don't require a vote on being alleviated due to negligible wages/resale). I have also removed all loanees under the age of 21 (Brannagan, Fulton, Kent, Chirivella, Allan, Awoniyi, Lennon), as these players would likely still fall under the juristiction of young players capable of further loans/development in the U23's.

That leaves 15 players on Liverpools books who are 21 and over and not contributing majorly to the clubs progress and challenges this year. Who would you sell? Who doesn't deserve to have another chance to impress? Who should be part of the squad going into next season?

I have included, for the primary squad, reported contracts (based on sports contracts information ascertained online), transfer values (as suggested by transfermarkt) and contract expiry (always the summer of ...).

I'd keep Can for another season, there's a player in there somewhere.

I think by the time I got to Can I was swinging the axe like a maniac so he got the chop too.

I demand a national referendum for each sale. The people must decide.
