Liverpool legend Carragher: Two key areas need strengthening

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher says they need to buy this summer to stay top of the table next season.

He insists certain areas of the squad need to be strengthened in the transfer window.

"The obvious thing is to win again," Carragher told the Liverpool Echo. "I wouldn't say 'one title is not enough' as I am not a big believer in saying you have to do this or that. If you isolate a season and say you were the best team in the league that season, end of story.

"Now next season, things change. People get bought, players get sold, it's a different league. Now I don't think Liverpool themselves are going to head into the transfer market and it will only be next year when we can if that was right or wrong.

"But most of the reasons financially are down to the situation that we are in right now, so you can't be too critical of the club on that score. But I think what they have now - I would still like them if they possibly could to add an attacking talent to the front three.

"And maybe add some sort of back up for Andy Robertson. They are well stocked in midfield and centre-back, I think Neco Williams will be great cover for Trent (Alexander-Arnold) and I just think an extra attacker and possibly looking at Lallana and Shaqiri moving on, so maybe just an extra couple of bodies in there.

"But I am confident Liverpool can do again what they have done this season."
