Liverpool legend Graeme Souness says the current midfield is too lightweight.
Souness believs his former side is too easy to play against in the middle of the park, with their Premier League and Champions League success built on the tenacity of Gini Wijnaldum, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson.
“A year ago they should have been looking at midfield players to buy last summer," he said. "A year ago, this was starting to show itself, the midfield.
"The best midfield they had was Wijnaldum, Henderson and Milner - high energy, not technically brilliant, but just high energy and they bullied players.
"They won it high up and they'd give it to the lads, the front three, and they'd go from there. Their's is not a problem that is easily solved right now because you're looking at the midfield of Keita, the young Spanish boy and Thiago, and they're getting bullied, and if you're getting bullied in there you're on the back foot most of the time."

Don't be such an ass goon! Thiago is class midfielder, without him the midfield will be absolutely f*ck up, get it!

Up front I haven’t seen anything good from Gakpo or Nunez. The midfield is useless. Henderson is okay as a player that organizes the team. But what is he supposed to organize? Old man Thiago? The young kids like Carvalho, who still need to understand the game? Or injury kings, Keita and Chamberlaine?

Agreed, we need a physically strong MF line than current, the recent games shown that we given up to much ground for our opponents. Besides, Gomez and Matrip formed that most worse CB duo in the team history. Before those injuries were returned, Klopp has to try another form, like 4-4-2 or 4-2-4 to build a stronger midfield, so as to increase the possession of second ball and blocking space for the opponents.

Thiago is the problem. No creativity. I was waiting every week. trying to see some changes. but, still jurgen klopp sticks with Thiago and Liverpool keep on losing. No creativity, mistake, trying to play tiki taka. What did you guys see about Thiago??? Stupid all of you who backs Thiago.

‼️ Benfica scammed Liverpool with Nunez, Chelsea followed them and they scammed them with Enzo Fernandez. ‼️ Chelsea was knocked out of the Carabao Cup, Liverpool followed. ‼️ Chelsea was knocked out of the FA Cup, Liverpool followed. ‼️ Liverpool Hijacked Gakpo which is a flop from Manchester United while Chelsea Hijacked Mmudryk AKA I dribble past Milner from Arsenal. ‼️ This weekend Liverpool Hijacked 10th Position from Chelsea while Chelsea Hijacked 9th Position from Liverpool...... ‼️ When Liverpool said they will Never Walk alone I never knew they were talking to Chelsea.... Twins of Depressing Football...

Try this line-up, Phillips and Williams at centre back can do a job... Previous they helped us qualify for champions League then they were cast aside, now use them again and once they do a great job keep them in the 1st XI or Kharma will strike again.

Besides midfield, their defence is also weak. The attackers can't score. So what it means is the whole team is just terrible.
