Jurgen Klopp rejected the suggestion that his side were 'falling apart' in the closing stages of their FA Cup defeat to Brighton. They were not going to sell him last summer, so maybe they thought let's wait till this summer, and this midfield can get us through. "It is obvious they have been working on the Jude Bellingham transfer for a long time. "I think Liverpool were at the stage last summer they almost won four trophies and they were in the Champions League final, so they were probably thinking that for us to bring in a player, they need to be special, and they felt Tchouameni was that player and he goes to Real Madrid. "That does not mean I am right, or the club is right, in terms of Klopp, but I think it got to last summer and they were well aware of what they needed to do in midfield and they tried to sign Tchouameni and he went to Real Madrid. "I am convinced Liverpool will have a big summer, I am sure a lot of fans want them to have a big January, but I would not want Liverpool to go back to what they used to do when I was playing where you would be buying players and hoping that it would work," he added. "If Liverpool are not bringing players in now because they have not got the money, or the player is not there that Klopp wants, that is a completely different argument that we do not know, we are not privy to that information."Ĭarragher, however, says it is unfair to criticise FSG for failing to strengthen in midfield when they tried to bring in Aurelien Tchouameni from Monaco and would have moved for Jude Bellingham had Borussia Dortmund shown any interest in selling the England international last summer.īild TV presenter Valentina Maceri gives insight into a potential move for Harry Kane to Bayern Munich this summer and will Bellingham leave or remain at Borussia Dortmund?Īs a result, the former Liverpool defender believes the Americans will make up for their recent lack of spending by splashing the cash this summer, with the Reds reportedly still pushing to sign Bellingham. "And what they do not do is panic in the transfer market, and I think Jurgen Klopp has shown that before when he has had really successful buys that he has brought in, like Virgil van Dijk, who he waited for before bringing in. "But what I would never want my club to be, which is what they were when I was a player, is a little bit scattergun, panicking at different times, whereas Liverpool over the last four or five years have been a model that other clubs around Europe have wanted to follow. "In terms of transfers, I can understand the frustrations of Liverpool fans when they see other clubs spending left, right and centre, and because Liverpool are not bringing someone in, it almost looks like they have given up on that fight for the top four.
