Jamie Carragher says Liverpool will not challenge the top sides until they sign a decent goalkeeper.
The former Reds’ centre-back was speaking following Simon Mignolet’s performance against Arsenal last night when he was at fault for their second goal.
Carra said: “There’s some movement on the ball but you have to do better than that – it’s shocking from the goalkeeper.
“Until they get a keeper of decent quality they won’t challenge the top sides.”
The Sky Sports pundit believes Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp is to blame for the situation.
“The question should be at the manager,” added Carragher. “He keeps picking him, he doesn’t buy anyone. He bought Karius and that hasn’t quite worked out.
“He’s not good enough so why in the summer did Liverpool not go and get a goalkeeper. It’s imperative Liverpool sign a goalkeeper.
“Mignolet is not early into his Liverpool career, we’re talking four or five years and it’s a long time.
“I don’t think the question should be with the goalkeeper because we don’t think he’s good enough.
“It’s now a question of the manager and why he hasn’t addressed that.”
