Liverpool boss, Brendan Rodgers, has admitted that he plans on bringing in new faces in January in order to add more depth to the squad.
The Merseyside outfit have withered to the 14th spot in the current league standings, after having managed just a single win out of their first seven games.
Their calamitous start can be attributed mainly to their lack of potency upfront and an acute dearth of options in the attack.
Liverpool did away with scores of their attackers during the summer transfer window. During the closing stages of the window, Andy Carroll was sent out on loan to West Ham United. It was believed that the club would land in a replacement for the English
International on the deadline date. However, the Reds failed in doing so.
With the recent foot injury to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-Borini-c13163, the Uruguayan International now shoulders even greater responsibility of spearheading his team’s attack all by himself.
In order to ease their problems and to overcome their slow start to the campaign, the Northern Irishman revealed that he plans on signing more players in January.
He said that he has discussed the subject in detail with the club’s owners, who are willing to co-operate in this regard.
Apart from competing in the domestic competitions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 are also taking part in the Europa League – a fact which has further fuelled their need of adding more men to their contingent.
“There are still areas we want to reinforce - and we have to reinforce as soon as we can,” he told the reporters.
“Our best team are comparable to any team in the Premier League. But we're a very thin squad and we are having to challenge on a lot of fronts.”
“I've had good conversations with the owners and they understand where we are at as a team.”
The Ulsterman has been made to work with a limited squad, as the owners want to trim the club’s bill of players’ wages. According to some sources, the Reds failure to do successful business in summer owed much to the owners’ reluctance to spend money.
