Liverpool legend and Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher has aired his frustration at the Reds’ summer transfer business, feeling the squad is imbalanced. The summer transfer window is now officially closed, meaning Andoni Iraola has to make do with what he has until at least January.
There has been a general feeling of frustration among Liverpool fans about the business that has been conducted, with no right-back or midfielder brought in. “I sit there scratching my head and thinking, ‘We’ve got four left wingers; we haven’t got one right winger.’ Something like that just doesn’t feel right to me.
We spent an awful lot of money since then and I don’t think anybody inside Liverpool or Liverpool supporters really believe we can win the league this season, or the manager’s got the tools to go and win the league this season, and that just doesn’t feel right.” Liverpool’s summer transfer business is head-scratching Carragher is spot on in his assessment of Liverpool’s summer, with no natural replacement for Mohamed Salah signed, and other key areas of the pitch not strengthened. Only time will tell if Liverpool will pay the price for their summer business, but Iraola hasn’t been helped at all by departed sporting director Richard Hughes, who leaves as a much-criticised figure.
