Liverpool made four new signings in the summer transfer window under Andoni Iraola.
Key players like Mohamed Salah, Ibrahima Konate and Andy Robertson left, along with Arne Slot, so the Reds had a lot of work to do.
It goes without saying that they signed good players, but Liverpool are also short in certain areas of the pitch.
And now, Andoni Iraola has appeared to suggest the Reds will keep a watchful eye on the January transfer window to add more players to their squad.

“I think now is not a moment to look backwards to the market,” said Iraola via Sky Sports.
“When the January market opens, we will see where we are. We have very good players and a very good squad.

“We need to find the balance and the right combinations so everyone can look even better than the player he is.
“If we are not well drilled, the timings are not there, then everyone looks worse. Everyone has to add a little bit.”
Conor Bradley will be back by then, so the need for a right-back won’t be as high in January.
However, if a quality midfielder becomes available, Liverpool could be foolish not to act on it.
