For a defence that has conceded 98 league goals in the last two years, Liverpool certainly want to hold onto their men.
The Reds have brought in two players so far during the transfer window so far - Danny Ings and James Milner - but Brendan Rodgers has also moved to secure centre-backs Kolo Toure and Martin Skrtel.
The Slovakian had been considering a move to Inter Milan in the Serie A but according to the Daily Express, he has decided to stay at Anfield.
Skrtel had his best season during Liverpool's brush with league glory two seasons ago, scoring seven goals, which is a mammoth tally for a centre-back.
And Liverpool will need their defence to be impenetrable at the start of the season, after being drawn to face Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United, Spurs, Man City and Everton in six of their first seven away league games next term.
