James Milner feels Liverpool need to increase their depth this summer.
Milner is leaving the Reds this summer.
The 37-year-old told the Liverpool Echo, "Look at the players now - the younger players, the manager and what he's achieved before and what he's achieved here. And also the club and how well it's supported, the winning mentality and experience in the dressing room. That's always the biggest one. They've won trophies together.
"This year has been tough, obviously. The amount of injuries we've had. I think it must be the worst season for injuries on record, so I think that's not helped. Whether that and going for everything last year, the World Cup break or a bit of bad luck and maybe not dealing with those situations as well as we could have done have contributed to this season.
"But you can see the form over the last few weeks, the fight in the dressing room and the run of results. I know we couldn't quite get the job done (qualifying for Champions League) but you can see Trent's new role giving him the option of a new way of playing. Obviously with good players and the manager we have then every chance Liverpool will be flying again next season."
