Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has questioned whether Christian Benteke will succeed at Anfield.

Benteke completed his record move from Aston Villa yesterday.

Carragher wrote in the Daily Mail: "Parallels have already been drawn with Andy Carroll and people have pointed out that Rodgers wasted no time in getting rid of him but that decision had nothing to do with the fact that Carroll was a big man. It was purely down to him lacking pace and movement.

"Those are qualities Benteke does not lack but his biggest problem at the moment, where a lot of Liverpool fans are concerned, is that they know him. He would have liked the welcome that Firmino has received, but in a few months a warm reception will count for nothing.

"All that will matter is how many goals they have managed to score. That alone will determine how popular they become."
