Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers admits they can't afford to buy big any longer.
Rodgers says the days of splashing out £35 million on a single signing are over.
"I don't think we are in a position to have £35million players as third choice strikers or wingers who are on £5-6million a year. This is the challenge I have.
"The club needs to repair financially. Unfortunately it is going to take more than one window. This is an incredible club but even if you want to move some players on, because of the wages and other factors, they are not just going to walk out the door.
"It is going to take us time to get to the squad we want. In the meantime we have to keep our head down and work hard and get results."
