If Liverpool could turn back time, they certainly would not have sanctioned a move away for certain players, with fans certainly agreeing.
But as we look back at all those who they did sell, we asked Rousing The Kop readers who they think the club regret selling the most, and there is a very clear winner.
Liverpool will regret selling Luis Diaz the most
Liverpool sold over £200m worth of players in the summer, which is why they were able to spend so heavily on new recruits.
However, despite adding quality, they have lost a lot, with some going on to big things already despite leaving less than six months ago.

Diaz was voted as the best signing of 2025 too, only further showing why Liverpool have made a mistake, with the left wing position at Anfield not being the same since he departed.

Coming in at second on the poll was Jarell Quansah, with the Englishman getting 18% of the votes.
Liverpool have had a bit of an issue at the back this season, with their lack of options meaning Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate have had to play virtually every game.
Quansah is excelling in the Bundesliga too which does not help matters, but the fact they have a buy-back clause on him is a good sign.
Darwin Nunez picked up just 5% of the votes, while Tyler Morton received a modest 4.7%, but Diaz is by far and away the winner of this one.
