'Liverpool haven't Replaced Mane & Firmino'

Former Liverpool star Jamie Carragher claims the Reds have not replaced Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.

The Red remain in the Premier League title race despite the shortcomings of Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz this season.

Carragher feels manager Jurgen Klopp might need to dip into the transfer marker if Nunez and Diaz don't step up.

"Looking at Liverpool's front three, there's something not quite right about it and for me, Nunez starts on the bench, for me he has to be one of the first names on the team sheet," Carragher said on Gary Neville's podcast.

"I saw him in midweek (against West Ham) and although he didn't score, he's creating, he can do something, Gakpo has been here for close to 12 months and he's had flashes but nowhere near enough.

"Diaz just looks like a shadow of himself, the knee injuries last season, he had family problems this season, but I feel Diaz needs a big second half of the season or Liverpool will be going in the market in the summer.

"With (Sadio) Mane and (Roberto) Firmino going they haven't really replaced them in terms of quality, we're almost making excuses for him (Nunez)

"But what Liverpool have still got in the front three is Mo Salah as your number one, Nunez is your number two then it's who else in the front three."
