"They are getting closer but whether they are getting close enough, I don't know. They are lacking in a few areas. "Fernando Torres was a fantastic signing. He plugged that 20-goal-a-season gap. Last season, Stevie Gerrard played just behind him but even if he can adapt to that, you lose something from the centre of midfield when you take him out. "He has an all-round game. Not only can he score goals but he can defend and he can tackle. He has to be one of the best two or three in the world in that role. "To put him back in midfield, you have to get someone who can complement Torres. Robbie Keane is a rumour, and he would be a tremendous signing. He will score goals and make goals for Torres." "You can ask if the players in the wide areas are good enough compared to the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal who haveCristiano Ronaldo, Joe Cole and Tomas Rosicky. "If you are going to win the Premier League, you have to compare the players you have in your positions to those in other teams. Is the quality as abundant at Liverpool as it is at other clubs? Maybe not. When I was there, we came close and finished second. You would think it would progress after that but we didn't kick on. "I don't know too much about the financial situation there but Liverpool don't seem to have the funds that Manchester United and Chelsea have got. "That seems strange. The worldwide following of Liverpool and the opportunity for marketing should bring in enough for them to compete better. "But it seems that they are allowed one big signing in the summer instead of two or three and that might be the difference. "Rafa is not getting the backing he deserves."
