#3 Failure to address defensive woes

Strange to go and get Ox when Liverpool already have so many midfield options

Klopp absolutely made a mockery of Liverpool's summer transfer window, by not signing even one central defender. Clearly, the defence was the major area of concern for Liverpool last season.

But, instead, he decided to buy winger Mohamed Salah from Roma for £36.9 million, left-back Andrew Robertson for £8 million from Hull City and the most bizarre of them all midfielder, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain for £34 million from Arsenal on transfer deadline day.

It just doesn’t make any sense why Robertson and Chamberlain were brought in when Klopp already better options with him.

Yet another question that demands to be raised is as to why Klopp did not pursue any other defender when Liverpool were categorically told by Southampton that Virgil Van Dijk was not going to be sold.

These are questions which can be answered only by Klopp.
