Former Liverpool goalkeeper David James believes the psychological and physical effects of last season are two key factors behind his old club’s 'strange' campaign.
Liverpool were close to claiming an unprecedented quadruple last season, but fast forward nine months, and Jurgen Klopp’s side now face a battle to finish in this season’s top four.
The Reds are already out of the title race and have been dumped from the League Cup and FA Cup. Klopp’s side face Real Madrid in the last-16 of the Champions League later this month.
