Simon Mignolet should be dropped, according to Liverpool great Jamie Carragher.

The Reds drew 2-2 with Ludogorets last night, and the goalkeeper was at fault for the Bulgarian side's equaliser.

Speaking on Sky Sports atter the match, Carragher said: "'It's a major concern Liverpool just can't make a clean sheet now.

"It's another mistake for him and it's getting to the stage now... [Dejan] Lovren was taken out of the team tonight, he [Mignolet] probably needs the same at the moment. For his own good.

"The problem is, Brad Jones on the bench is not better than Mignolet, is that the answer?

"It's not just about a keeper, it's any player. Sometimes you think you'll play yourself out of the bad form, we've been there ourselves.

"Sometimes it is good to step back out of the limelight and let others have a go."
