And the former Reds' vice captain also outlined what he thinks needs to happen when the transfer window opens."[The big-spending summer] hasn't worked, it might work in the future because I don't think you can judge every signing in the first year," Carragher told the ECHO."But I've said this before, my experience as a Liverpool player; every player who came to the club, I can't remember one who didn't really do much in his first season and then was a revelation afterwards."Some took a few months, you might get to Christmas, maybe second half of the season, so I think there's a lot to do for the players who has come in. Hugo Ekitike has done well, not amazing but he's done well."Isak hasn't got going, he obviously got the injury but he didn't look great to start with, Wirtz has got to do a lot more, an awful lot more when you think of the price that Liverpool have paid for him."In terms of what Liverpool need to do next season, well obviously they need to replace Salah.



I think for me three players need to come straight into the team. Liverpool bought a lot of players last summer so they are not going to buy a load this summer."For me, you need to replace Mo Salah obviously.

Liverpool need a right-back, they have fudged a few things there, they gave Conor Bradley his chance, he got another injury."Jeremie Frimpong has done all right actually. But for me, I think Frimpong should be the back-up right-winger to the one that we buy in the summer.
