Liverpool can win the Premier League title next season if they manage to swerve the same type of problem that marred their 2020/21 campaign, according to Brad Friedel.
The Reds finished last season just a point behind winners Manchester City and had Pep Guardiola's side not come from 2-0 down to defeat Aston Villa, Anfield could have collected a record-equalling 20th league title at the end of a phenomenal campaign.
Instead they will have to go again in August and with Sadio Mane departed and the arrival of Darwin Nunez, the Reds will be prepared to tackle a fresh assault. After freshening up his forward line, Jurgen Klopp will now likely turn his attention to midfield matters, but with no new arrivals expected in the engine room this summer, Friedel warns that his former club must avoid the same problem that dogged their defence two campaign ago.
