"He's a great player, there's no doubt about that - I'd love to get Barcola at Liverpool," Carragher told Sky Sports News. "But he's a left winger for me."Liverpool's big thing that stands out like a sore thumb right now is replacing Mo Salah, a right winger.

But in terms of the balance of the squad, it's not the position Liverpool need right now. But that is a point: you're buying a really young player for a lot of money in Barcola, who's better than Rio Ngumoha right now."But you think eventually in the next year or two, Rio would want to be playing week in, week out for Liverpool.

But I think his position is the left-right now."And the reason I'm a little bit confused with Barcola is because last season, when Liverpool sold Luis Diaz, the noise was coming from the club was: we're not buying a left winger because we've got Gakpo - and we also don't want to block the path of Rio Ngumoha."And you think, well, OK. When 12 months earlier they said they didn't want to block Rio's path."So there are a few things with Liverpool transfer-wise at the moment where I'm still scratching my head a little bit."But if they go out and get a player for the right wing, bring Barcola in and then sell a couple of the wide players that they have on the books right now, I think that'd be fantastic."
