Liverpool news: klopp transfer demand made after loris karius display.

That’s the opinion of former defender-turned-pundit Lee Dixon after the Reds’ Champions League final defeat last night. Klopp’s side fell to seasoned European experts Real Madrid in Kiev

with Loris Karius making two high-profile errors for Real’s first goal, through Karim Benzema, and their third from substitute Gareth Bale. After throwing the ball into Benzema in an attempt

to play out from the back, German shot-stopper Karius later allowed Bale’s long-range strike to deceive him with its swerve.  Those errors were hugely costly as Liverpool’s hopes of ending

their six-year wait for silverware with the grandest prize of them all fell short. And Karius’ error-strewn showing could tempt Klopp and co. to recruit a new goalkeeper having been linked

with Alisson Becker of Roma and Atletico Madrid ace Jan Oblak among others. And ex-Arsenal man Dixon insists the German manager has no choice but to bolster between the sticks. “I think if

he doesn’t get a new goalkeeper in, that’s bad management in my personal opinion,” he told ITV’s UEFA Champions League Highlights Show. “Because I don’t think either of them are good enough

to win the Champions League. “[I don’t think they’re good enough] To be the goalkeeper that goes and pushes Liverpool to the next level that they want to be.” Liverpool legend Alan Kennedy -

who scored the only goal in the Merseyside club’s 1981 European Cup final win over Madrid - believes that Karius can turn things around at Anfield. But the ex-defender insists Karius must

remain undisputed first choice in order for that happen.  Kennedy explained: “He has to start next season. Whatever the manager thinks over the next three months with new players and new

goalkeepers coming in. “Will he get a new goalkeeper? Probably not. He’ll probably stick with the two lads that he has got.  “But he needs to get more people in - simple as that.”
