Saturday afternoon marked the start of a new era for Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.
Having enjoyed the fruits of Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino's labour over the past five seasons, the famed trio - who will be remembered as one of the finest Anfield has ever witnessed - was broken up following the former's £35m switch to Bayern Munich earlier this summer.
For Liverpool, and for Klopp, it handed them the opportunity to redefine their attack as they look to prolong their recent success on the domestic and European stage. And with each member of the Reds' former trio turning 30 years old last campaign, Klopp was tasked with bringing in a younger attacking option who could act as a long-term replacement for Firmino - who has less than a year left on his current Anfield deal and is yet to agree on fresh terms with the club.
