It is no secret that Liverpool are in a very poor run of form at the moment. Since the turn of the New Year, the Reds have only picked up one win (against fourth division side Plymouth in a replay by a narrow one goal margin). Liverpool are in desperate need of help in seemingly lots of departments. They have looked far less imposing going forward in recent weeks than they had at the beginning of the season, but they have also looked even flimsier at the back at times. Here are four players Liverpool could sign to sure up their side for the months ahead.
1. Virgil van Dijk
We all know that this was unlikely to begin with, and that it’s almost a definite no-go since he is injured. At any rate, Liverpool need a player with his type of ability in the back line next to Joel Matip. Van Dijk has speed, ability on the ball, heading, and excellent positional sense. All of the traits are ones that most of the Reds lack defensively.
