Jamie Carragher has admitted that Liverpool need to sign a "quality" midfielder after they were beaten by Manchester United on Monday night.
The Reds were without Thiago and Naby Keita for their trip to Old Trafford, while Fabinho was named as a substitute after recovering from an injury. This meant Jurgen Klopp had to name 37-year-old James Milner in his starting XI alongside Jordan Henderson and Harvey Elliott.
United dominated the midfield battle with Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes enjoying themselves as Erik ten Hag's side out-fought and out-battled Liverpool. Carragher has highlighted the Reds' midfield as the position that needs improving, with just over a week to go until the end of the window.
