It was always going to happen one day.
Just like The Beatles did after a decade dominating the world of music, Liverpool 's famous front three - consisting of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane - is breaking up. With 274 goals between them, the image of the trio lining up in red will go down as one of the most memorable pieces of iconography in both Anfield and Premier League history.
There's been long-running speculation over who the first member to veer off into a solo career will be. Ask Kopites only a few months ago and many would've bet on Firmino, whose once assured place as Jurgen Klopp 's first-choice striker is long gone. Salah's departure also maintains an air of inevitably, with his contract up in June 2023 and no team on the planet not admiring his mesmeric ability.
