What happened. Liverpool attempted to sign Chelsea right-back Malo Gusto on deadline day but failed to agree on the deal's structure, so the move collapsed.

• Conor Bradley has injury problems.
• Jeremie Frimpong still adapting defensively.

Liverpool may revisit the position in future windows if defensive cover remains a concern.
