J. Barnes: "Liverpool" team definitely needs a central midfielder

Former "Liverpool" and England national football team player John Barnes has decided to speak out about the team where he spent 10 years. The former left winger has no doubt that the "Liverpool" team's goals will eventually stop, and they definitely need to acquire a typical central forward. "The trio up front is very good, but I don't think they can continue this for another two or three years. Salah is not a central forward. I don't think he is a player who can regularly score goals over a long period of time. We don't have such players. We have players like Salah and Mane, and although Mane scored a hattrick against "Porto", they are not true snipers. As funny as it sounds, if they were to acquire a center forward playing in the penalty area, move Firmino a bit lower, they would become a better balanced team. Yes, we score a lot of goals, but can Mane and Salah do it regularly?" - said J. Barnes. This season, Mohamed Salah scored 30 goals, Roberto Firmino scored 21, and Sadio Mane scored 12.
