Jamie Carragher has told Liverpool head coach Arne Slot that he must take a leaf out of Carlo Ancelotti's book as he looks to bed in all of his summer signings. The Reds committed over $100 million each to the signings of Isak, Wirtz and Ekitike, and Carragher likened the spree to the ones more familiarly seen carried out by Real Madrid over the years.
