Former Borussia Dortmund defender Christoph Metzelder criticized the team's newcomer Ciro Immobile.
According to the German, the former Torino striker will not be able to adequately replace Robert Lewandowski, who left for Bayern Munich.
"Coach Jurgen Klopp's system is a serious challenge for every newcomer. Especially when you come from another league with completely different work methods. Of course, it takes time, just like it was with Lewandowski.
But ask yourself: is Immobile, as a penalty area striker, suitable for this system?" - said Metzelder.
"Against Arsenal, he performed great in the penalty area, but when Borussia needs a striker who can do a little more, will Immobile be able to replicate Lewandowski? I have my doubts," he continued.
Within five games, the 24-year-old Italian has scored 2 goals.
