Jamie Carragher feels Jurgen Klopp could look to bolster his attacking options next summer if Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo don't pull their socks up.
Klopp has a wealth of forwards options at his disposal, including Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and the injured Diogo Jota.
Carragher has questioned whether Liverpool need more firepower going forward if they are to challenge for major honours.
The former Reds defender questioned Klopp's choice to start Gakpo over Nunez in Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Saturday
Carragher said:
"Looking at Liverpool's front three, there's something not quite right about it and for me, Nunez starts on the bench, for me he has to be one of the first names on the team sheet.
"I saw him in midweek (against West Ham) and although he didn't score, he's creating, he can do something, Gakpo has been here for close to 12 months and he's had flashes but nowhere near enough.
"Diaz just looks like a shadow of himself, the knee injuries last season, he had family problems this season, but I feel Diaz needs a big second half of the season or Liverpool will be going in the market in the summer.
"With (Sadio) Mane and (Roberto) Firmino going they haven't really replaced them in terms of quality, we're almost making excuses for him (Nunez). but what Liverpool have still got in the front three is Mo Salah as your number one, Nunez is your number two then it's who else in the front three."
Salah still has 18 months left to run on his contract at Anfield, though interest from Saudi Arabia refuses to go away.
