Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has questioned the club's decision to sign Christian Benteke, who he has described as "infuriating".
The Belgian striker completed his move to Anfield from Aston Villa on Wednesday after the Reds met his £32.5m release clause.
While Carragher believes that Benteke has some decent qualities, the retired footballer has suggested that the 24-year-old is a better fit for Chelsea.
In his column for the Daily Mail, Carragher wrote: "While we've been impressed by how Benteke has torn teams apart - Liverpool, against whom he scored five goals in six games, have really suffered - we also know when his touch has been poor and his lack of interest has been apparent. He can be devastating and infuriating in equal measure.
"I like him as a striker and actually think he would be great for Chelsea. Jose Mourinho likes that profile of forward and sets his teams up to get the best out of them.
"My worry at Liverpool is, will he be suited to the short, sharp and incisive passing game that Rodgers favours? Brendan wants his side to play through teams, rather than getting the ball into him from wide areas, a fact Tim Sherwood pointed out as soon as Liverpool's interest became public."
Benteke is Liverpool's seventh signing of the window so far following the arrivals of James Milner, Danny Ings, Adam Bogdan, Joe Gomez, Roberto Firmino and Nathaniel Clyne.
