In their penultimate Champions League group game, Liverpool’s defensive woes hit a new low. They were 3-0 up against Sevilla and somehow managed to draw 3-3 with the Spanish side. The problems at the back have been evident since last season, and there will be question marks over Liverpool boss Klopp as to why he did not reinforce his defence in the summer. However, he has a chance of redemption as the January transfer window isn’t far away but who should the German try and sign?

The out of favour left-back, who made a surprise appearance on the bench against Newcastle United, could be a target to help improve the Merseyside club in their efforts to keep the opposition at bay. The England international would add an attacking element as he likes to get forward but has also impressed fans at Old Trafford for his work rate to get back.
With a major falling out between him and manager Jose Mourinho, a move looks likely but to a direct rival? It looks unlikely. However, every player has a price, and the Manchester United board may be tempted to sell in order to free up Mourinho’s budget.
