Liverpool have invested huge amount of money this summer and brought in a host of players. But that should not imply as Liverpool have made their overall squad stronger. There is a strong opinion that Liverpool have failed to replace a world class Luis Suarez properly and have bought way too many mediocre players with that money. This is primarily the reason why they have struggled at the beginning of this season and failed to keep up their momentum from last season. Even yesterday they struggled to beat Swansea in their Capital One Cup match comprehensively and could only get the better out of them with a late goal from their centre back, Dejan Lovren.
It can be said with surety that if Liverpool are to replicate their success story from last season, they have to bring in a few world class players to their squad. But that would also mean that they have to get rid of a few of their current squad members first who add very little value to the team. We can expect a host of players to leave the club in the summer and here we give the names of three such men who should not be Liverpool players after the summer.
Kolo Toure:
The veteran centre back was signed on a free transfer after his contract with Manchester City ended. But the Ivory Coast international has added very little value to the squad and been extremely error prone. He is now a pale shadow of his former self, the strong and accurate player that he was at Arsenal and it is now the twilight of his long career. Many can argue that his mistake has potentially cost Liverpool the title last season, a fact that would hurt the club for a long time to come. Toure’s contract is due at the end of the season and there is no possibility that it would be extended beyond this season.
