Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is unsure if they can strengthen in January.
Rodgers is not convinced things will get much better when the January window opens.
"The reality is not a lot is done in January," he said.
"You normally find summer is the time when most business gets done.
"I am sure we will need help because we have a very small squad and will play between 25 and 27 games with the group we have before January."
