Liverpool Echo<\/em>: \u201cJordan is a great signing. I know one of the coaches at Sunderland who rates Jordan very highly.<\/p>\n“He had a great season with Sunderland and we\u2019re fortunate to have got him. I think he will add real energy to our midfield.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Merseyside club have seemingly adopted a new policy of bringing in rising stars as opposed to established players and Carragher has backed the approach.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe club now has a policy of focusing attention on young players and I think that\u2019s the right way for clubs to go,” he continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou want to develop a team and have players at the club for a long time. I think that approach will really benefit us.<\/p>\n
\u201cThings don\u2019t always work out, but it\u2019s much easier to move on a younger player who still has a decent sell-on value than someone in their 30s.\u201d<\/p>\n
As for the remainder of the transfer window, Carragher expects more deals to be conducted in the near future.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s still very early and I didn\u2019t expect too much to happen on the transfer front before now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the summer players, managers, chief executives and owners are all away on holiday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s only the start of July and with pre-season getting going next week I\u2019m sure things will soon start moving.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou often find that one deal sets it off and everything happens from there.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sure it will kick off over the next few weeks and hopefully we\u2019ll get a couple more new faces in.\u201d<\/p>\n
