Jamie Carragher pinpoints Liverpool's major flaw - and singles out £40m new signing for his role in it - after £250m of new buys missed out on first trophy

Jamie Carragher has singled out what he believes to be Liverpool's fatal flaw after a blockbuster summer spend in the wake of their Community Shield defeat to Crystal Palace.

The Premier League champions went toe-to-toe with their division rivals at Wembley on Sunday afternoon and started a new-look XI furnished with Arne Slot's standout signings including Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, and Jeremie Frimpong.

It didn't take long for former Eintracht Frankfurt star Ekitike to announce himself to the Premier League with a lightning-quick goal inside the five-minute mark.
