Your Liverpool digest for Tuesday, January 10.
Jamie Carragher has already warned Liverpool of transfer mistake they can't repeat in January
Liverpool fans saw it in the Premier League defeat at Brentford and in the FA Cup draw at home to Wolves. But Jamie Carragher saw it as far back as October.
Speaking after his former club went down 1-0 at Nottingham Forest, Carragher said: "This season has proved that they should have gone into the market for just what we might call good players because at this moment the midfield is just not functioning. And when you have a problem defensively and going forward, the first place you look at is the midfield.''

Jurgen Klopp must formulate new Liverpool masterplan and two players have shown why
Saturday's draw with Wolves was further proof Liverpool have lost their fear factor. Our identity has gone and this situation reminds me a lot of the Covid season, where we couldn’t win a home game.
Teams have discovered our weak links, which is becoming more apparent with each passing game. Scouts are sent out to identify those areas and that information then becomes common knowledge, to some extent. We did really well to counteract sides trying to exploit us last year but teams seem to be experiencing more joy in this department this season.
We're seeing the same approach from opponents time and time again: sitting back, wasting time and going down with injuries. What happens is others then learn from this and implement it. It’s only Man City who come out and play against us, both home and away. The likes of Tottenham and Chelsea are capable of being expansive at home, which is perhaps more because of their reputation, but it's a different story at Anfield. Tottenham did a job on us last year at Anfield, which stopped us winning the league.
