Alberto Moreno's departure to Villarreal earlier in the window has left the Liverpool short of a solid backup for Andy Robertson.
The Reds are just a long term Robertson injury away from finding themselves fielding James Milner, Joe Gomez or an uncapped youngster at left-back. Whilst these players are capable of filling the void, questions must be asked whether the European champions should be settling for unnatural replacements rather than investing in a natural backup.
Despite the obvious need for a full-back signing this summer, it seems more than likely that Liverpool will be entering the season without such a signing.
