LIVERPOOL manager Jurgen Klopp has backed Steven Gerrard to come back stronger from his Aston Villa sacking – but hopes he takes some time away from the game first.
Gerrard was sacked as manager in the aftermath of Villa’s 3-0 defeat at Fulham on Thursday night.
The club have collected just nine points from their opening 11 matches and only lie above the relegation zone on goals scored.
