Jamie Carragher: 'Liverpool need to sign a new winger'

Ex-Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher claims that Reds boss Jurgen Klopp should sign a winger during the January transfer window.

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has told manager Jurgen Klopp that he must sign a winger during the January transfer window.

The Reds have drawn both their Premier League league games under Klopp, who was appointed a fortnight ago, with the latest coming against Southampton at Anfield on Sunday.

Liverpool enjoyed the majority of the possession against the Saints, but Carragher has suggested that they are struggling to find the back of the net because the squad is unbalanced.

"There are no wide players in the squad, there is an abundance of number 10s. I don't know how the transfer committee thought they would fit them in," Carragher told Sky Sports News.

"That is Jurgen Klopp's problem now. Maybe he will address that in January but there are four centre forwards and three or four number 10s and no wide players.

"There are some problems with that squad in terms of the quality and the balance."

Liverpool host Bournemouth in the League Cup on Wednesday.
