Welcome to a recap of our Liverpool transfer deadline day Q&A as our writers explained why there were no major incomings on the final day of the window and what lies ahead in the summer.
Liverpool's only major signing this window was the arrival of Dutch attacker Cody Gakpo. He joined Liverpool from PSV Eindhoven in a deal which could be worth £40m right at the start of the month, although he has yet to really make much of an impact at Anfield.
There is no doubting the fact the Reds now face a big ask to overhaul their bitter rivals and secure a place in next season's Champions League to ensure Jurgen Klopp has valuable funds to strengthen in the summer.
Klopp's side were knocked out of the FA Cup by Brighton on Sunday, and find themselves 10 points behind Manchester United, who currently occupy fourth spot in the Premier League.
RECAP: Your deadline day questions to our writers answered in the comments section below
Does Klopp believe Liverpool's existing squad can save the season? Is Champions League football integral to who they can sign after the season finishes? What is the plan with Jude Bellingham? Our reporters answered the above questions, and more, in our Q&A which ran throughout deadline day.
There were no major departures from Anfield either. Why did Roberto Firmino, James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita, who are out of contract, not leave in cut-price deals? What about Nat Phillips and Caoimhin Kelleher, who are desperate to play regular first-team football? We get to the bottom of why they stayed.
