Last season, club legend Fowler argued that striker Darwin Nunez was “not a Liverpool player” and he has been asked whether he believes the same applies to any of the Reds’ summer recruits.READ MORE: Jamie Carragher urges Liverpool to complete January transfer - 'They have to'READ MORE: Liverpool sent Antoine Semenyo message as £40m transfer agreement reached - 'Would love him'“I do. "He's raw, he's this, he's that, and we can't keep saying that."So for me, the more I see him, the more I think he's not a Liverpool player.

Now, people might have a go at me for saying this: you know, he works hard; you're not signing a player because he works hard because that should be a prerequisite anyway."You've got to come in, you've got to score goals, and I know he's a fan favourite for what he puts in, but at the time that we're talking now, you've got to perform better, and you've got to do better in the Liverpool shirt."In terms of this season, Fowler has already stated that Liverpool will need to be flawless for the rest of the campaign to stand a chance of retaining the league title. He also feels that Liverpool have not sufficiently addressed defensive midfield since Fabinho left Anfield two years ago.Fowler stopped short of naming the summer signings he would liken to Nunez.

However, he did share his thoughts on how Frimpong and Kerkez have functioned as part of a new-look Liverpool defence.“It's been difficult for Jeremie Frimpong because everyone is thinking he's going to come in and replace Trent, when he's not really been played in the same position as Trent for his whole career,” Fowler said to Adventure Gamers.“Kerkez for me was a player who was outstanding in the Premier League last year. Hence the reason why he was picked in the Premier League team of the year.“So there's definitely potential with him as well.
