5 problems Liverpool must battle before next season

5. Getting rid of Andy Carroll

The detrimental nature of the signing of Andy Carroll under Dalglish’s reign cannot be stressed enough. It dug a big hole in Liverpool’s pocket and ensured that the owners won’t budge with money now. It is no doubt that Carroll is a striker of some potential but Liverpool is not the place for him for a number of reasons. He does not fit into Rodgers’ scheme of things, he needs a swift mover and a passer. Carroll offers physical strength and aerial ability. If Liverpool get West Ham to sign him for 15 million pounds, it will be a considerable boost to Rodger’s transfer kitty. The sooner, the better.
