Graeme Souness thinks Liverpool’s lack of goals should worry Jurgen Klopp despite the amount of “firepower” on the pitch.
The Reds were beaten 2-1 by Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night with Klopp hitting out at the French club’s play-acting.
However, Souness believes the real concern for Klopp should be his side’s number of shots on target and lack of goals.
“It is a worry,” Souness said on Virgin Media Sport.
“You play 90 minutes with all that firepower on the pitch and they manage one shot on target.
“You’d think that would be nigh on impossible for the players Liverpool have got. But they achieved it tonight.
“Five shots on target in three away games.
“You don’t win European Cups unless you’re scoring goals!
“And if you make a mistake you’ll be punished at the highest level.”

Liverpool put themselves on the edge going into the final matches of the round of 16.
All the goals were scored in the first half with the hosts netting the first two through Juan Bernat and Neymar Jnr.
Liverpool reduced the deficit from the spot with James Milner coolly slotting home after Sadio Mane was brought down in the box.
“It was our last chance to show that we can fight with a team like Liverpool,” PSG boss Thomas Tuchel told RFI after the match.”
The victory moves PSG up to second place in Group C on eight points. They are a point behind Napoli who swept past Red Star Belgrade 3-1.
