Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi believes Liverpool find themselves in a 'difficult' position due to making a limited number of changes to the squad over a number of years.
Often accused for their lack of action in the transfer market, many supporters believe Liverpool are now paying the price for a lack of investment - particularly in central midfield. Jurgen Klopp shut down a question relating to potential incomings at today's press conference, insisting he does not anticipate further arrivals before the end of the month.
Arthur Melo, a deadline day loan acquisition, and Fabio Carvalho were the two midfielders signed in the summer by the Reds, who have been outran and outfought in this area of the pitch in a number of games this season.
