IN the past fortnight Liverpool have travelled twice to the capital and, in Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United, have faced teams at grounds which differ from the ones they’re traditionally associated with. I attended both games and was keen to see how they...
AFTER the frustrating failure of Liverpool’s efforts to secure Virgil van Dijk’s signature in the summer, Jürgen Klopp’s public stance ever since has been to back the defenders at his disposal. Many supporters, people in the media and pundits alike, doubted his words...
