Chelsea captain John Terry thinks that Liverpool's main problem this season is a lack of depth in their squad.
The Reds have lost four games on the trot in all competitions and go into Sunday's clash with Manchester United with talsismanic duo Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres both major injury doubts.
Terry feels that the lack of quality replacements for the pair could see Rafa Benitez struggle to turn things round at Anfield.
"We're very fortunate at Chelsea. Since Roman Abramovich came we have had a lot of strength in depth in the squad, like with Salomon Kalou scoring twice against Atletico with Didier Drogba being out," Terry said, according to Press Association Sport.
"People said we would struggle without Didier, but we didn't. If you take Torres out of their team, who do they bring in? It's difficult.
"We have players that are not here only to make up the numbers, but players that are fighting and working hard every day in training to come in and really prove themselves.
"Salomon seems to always come in and do well. Didier knows that the players behind him are working hard and wanting his place, the same goes for Nico [Anelka]. When Salomon comes in and does well, it gives the manager a real problem."
