Martin Skrtel admits Liverpool were disappointing last season.
The defender is being linked with Manchester City and Anzhi this morning.
Skrtel was a shining light in Liverpool's turbulent term, winning the club's Player of the Season gong.
However, as Skrtel himself admitted, Liverpool's eighth place finish was a below par season - despite the club winning the Carling Cup and reaching the FA Cup final.
"Everybody knows it wasn't a great season because we finished in eighth position and that's not good," he said.
"I think we deserved to finish higher than eighth position, but there were too many games in which we didn't get three points - and there were too many games in which we didn't get what we deserved."
