Liverpool told to complete double transfer Frank Lampard missed out on at Chelsea

Liverpool should go all out and sign Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice as the England duo would solve the Reds' current midfield predicament - two years after Frank Lampard tried to bring both of them to Chelsea.

That's an opinion held by former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann, who believes the talented pair have what it takes to take the Reds back to their best after a mediocre start to the campaign. Jurgen Klopp's side currently sit sixth in the Premier League table, having won just six of their opening 14 matches.

The Reds also lie 15 points behind league leaders Arsenal, which already looks a huge gap to climb although Klopp's men are known for a late push in the second-half of the season. One reason behind their mini-downfall is Liverpool's midfield, with Jordan Henderson, Thiago, Naby Keita and Arthur missing matches through injury, while Fabinho hasn't been at his best this term.
