Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has predicted where his beloved club will finish at the end of the current Premier League season. Liverpool are the Premier League holders but their title defence has not gone as planned. Liverpool were strong contenders for the Premier League title until December when everything fell apart for manager Jurgen Klopp and his players.

After the thumping 7-0 victory at the home of Crystal Palace in December, Liverpool embarked on a wretched run that brought just two wins until penultimate Monday when the Reds beat Wolves 1-0 away from home. Former Wolverhampton Wanderers player Diogo Jota was responsible for the winning goal on the stroke of half-time. The win was a big boost for Liverpool as it brought the league holders back into contention for European football ahead of next season.

CARRAGHER PICKS HAALAND AHEAD OF MBAPPE

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has opted for ErlingHaaland ahead of KylianMbappe if the Reds are to spend big on a striker in the summer.

NO MORE VAN DIJK EXCUSE – CARRAGHER

Liverpool had not won a league title for three decades until last summer when that title drought ended. Liverpool started the season well and were at the top of the table for long periods even after the unfortunate Virgil Van Dijk injury during the Merseyside Derby in October 2020. The Reds were at the summit for several weeks before they imploded in recent weeks.

According to Carragher, Liverpool should be looking to make as many as three new signings in the summer so they can cover up for the struggles they have had to face so far this season.
