Former Liverpool star Jamie Carragher has warned the club not to rest on their laurels when it comes to recruitment, pointing out the important role played by manager Jurgen Klopp.
Plenty of credit has been given to the Reds' other staff, including former sporting director Michael Edwards and the soon-to-depart Julian Ward. However, Carragher suggested the Merseyside club would come to recognise the importance of Klopp when the manager eventually leaves Anfield.
The former Borussia Dortmund boss signed a contract extension in April, meaning he will have been at Liverpool for more than a decade if he sees out the current deal. During that time, Klopp has built the squad which won the Premier League, Champions League and several other trophies, signing off on the recruitment of men who have gone on to become the Reds' biggest stars.
