The Liverpool manager says that he is looking to bring in more players before the summer transfer window ends as Liverpool need to strength their squad to compete against the big boys in the upcoming Premier League season...
Brendan Rodgers has hinted that Liverpool are in negotiations with several other clubs regarding their identified transfer targets but the former Swansea City manager has refused to take any names thus far.
Liverpool have had an average summer transfer window so far as they have signed Joe Allen from Swansea City and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 but things do not look good at Anfield where the depth and quality in the squad is lacking

He added, "The work has been continual right the way through to try and get in players that fit the profile of Liverpool and the team. I would hope there would be a couple more signings before the end of August."
Liverpool kick off their league campaign this weekend and Rodgers will hope that his plans can come into practice sooner rather than later as it was inconsistency in the Premier League that eventually cost Kenny Dalglish his job
at Anfield much more than anything else.
