Neel and Patrick rebuild Liverpool's defence and Tottenham's attack, hunting for value signings that go beyond the obvious names.


They dig into Liverpool's centre-back options behind an ageing Van Dijk, including Castello Lukeba, Ousmane Diomande and free agent wildcard Oumar Solet, before working through the full-back market on both flanks. Then it's over to Spurs, where the focus shifts to fixing the attack around Savinho and Nicolas Jackson, plus a handful of cheaper wide alternatives if the big names don't move.


Plus: a look ahead to the Premier League Previews dropping the week of August 17th, covering all 20 clubs.
