Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher remains unconvinced by their attack after last night Champions League defeat of RB Leipzig.

Second-half goals from Mo Salah and Sadio Mane gave Jurgen Klopp's side a much-needed boosted after three straight Premier League defeats - with Liverpool now in firm control of their European knockout tie.

Carragher said later: "I saw a Liverpool performance that I have seen in the last few weeks. Liverpool's energy, the pressing has been there for a few weeks and it was there from the start.

"I am not trying to take anything away from that result. That's a magnificent result. That team (Leipzig) is just behind (Bayern) Munich in the Bundesliga and they did really well in the Champions League last season.

"But the actual goals scored were on the back of mistakes and they (Liverpool) were clinical. They still didn't create an awful lot in the game. Again, I am not being critical.

"But they haven't created an awful lot. Then one mistake, the ball has gone into the opposition net, and... they got away with it because of the goalkeeper at 0-0.

"For how well Liverpool played tonight, they still didn't create an awful lot tonight themselves. For me, going forward that's still a problem."
