Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp believes the problems for Jurgen Kloppa aren't at the back - but in attack.

After the Reds' 2-2 draw with Burnley on Saturday, Redknapp admits Liverpool's front players are some of the most exciting in the league but believes the result proves Klopp still needs a 'ruthless goalscorer'.

“Liverpool may have issues at the back but what really concerned me was their inability to kill off Burnley," Redknapp told the Daily Mail.

“All their dominance and creativity produced 35 shots but just one goal.

“Liverpool are one of the most exciting teams to watch. Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho and Mo Salah are lovely footballers whose intricate play can be scintillating.

“They share the goals around the team. You are not going to get a golden boot contender from this side.

“But against teams like Burnley who defend resolutely, Liverpool need a ruthless goalscorer to put the game to bed. Think of Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen.

“Every time they stepped on to the pitch at Anfield, their sole aim was to score as many as possible. I do not see the same selfish streak in players like Firmino while Daniel Sturridge is lacking in confidence."

He added: “If they cannot convert their dominance into goals, the Premier League title remains a distant ambition."
