Liverpool fans dream of unreal XI that would 'dominate football for the next five years' after Declan Rice links

This would be some team.

Liverpool supporters have named the three signings their team should make if they want to "dominate football for the next five years".

The Reds came close to winning an unprecedented quadruple last season but fell just short in both the Premier League and Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp's side finished one point behind Manchester City in the league, just weeks before losing 1-0 to Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Paris.

Liverpool have suffered a sharp decline this season and already find themselves 15 points behind league leaders Arsenal after just 12 games.

Reds fans have called on the club's owners to invest heavily in the next transfer window, with Klopp desperately in need of reinforcements – particularly in the midfield area.

One report has linked Liverpool with a move for West Ham midfielder Declan Rice.

Rice has continued to impress for the Hammers this season, with both Chelsea and Manchester United also thought to be admirers of the England star.

Liverpool have also been strongly linked with Rice's international teammate Jude Bellingham.

German publication Bild claim the Reds have set aside £86m to sign the 19-year-old midfielder next summer, although his current club Borussia Dortmund are reportedly holding out for £129m.

Another name linked with a move to Anfield is Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe.

Reports earlier this season claimed the France international is unhappy at the Parc des Princes and is keen to leave the club in January.

However, PSG are said to be unwilling to sell him to Real Madrid, leaving Liverpool as a potential option for Mbappe.

It could be a challenge for Liverpool's owners to fund a bid for Mbappe, let alone also Rice and Bellingham.

But that hasn't stopped Reds fans from dreaming about signing the trio, with one supporter knocking up a potential new-look XI for the Reds.

It looks as follows: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Robertson, Thiago, Rice, Bellingham, Mbappe, Nunez, Salah.

"This team would rule football for the next five years," posted one fan on Twitter.

Another replied: "Decade".

However, others fans were more sceptical of Liverpool's chances of signing the trio.

"That's over £350 million in just transfer fees don't make me laugh," posted one supporter.

Another added: "With that money are we buying them lol."

Liverpool return to Premier League action away at Tottenham on Sunday.

They then face Derby County in the third round of the EFL Cup before hosting Southampton in their final league game before the season breaks for the winter World Cup in Qatar.
