"I do feel that we need options in there, and I think Wharton gives you that really good option in midfield as a six."He's left-footed, so having someone in there that can really dominate, and he's a fantastic passer of the ball too. That's what you need for Liverpool because you're going to get a lot of the ball."I think Sandro Tonali is probably a bit too much like what we've already got in (Dominik) Szoboszlai, and then there's Ryan Gravenberch, who I think is more of a runner with the ball, although obviously last season he changed to play more of a six role.Cody Gakpo has struggled this season(Image: Getty Images)"You can probably release him a little bit more if you have a Wharton in there.

Yeah, I think so," he added."I don't think Cody Gakpo has had a great season, to be honest with you."I just think I've seen better from him. I don't think he's produced like last season."I'm not sure if he's a winger.

I think he would probably be better off in a 9 or 10 role. I think he's more of an inside winger or number nine."Cody GakpoLiverpool FCCrystal Palace FCTransfers
