A familiar complaint of Jurgen Klopp throughout his years at Liverpool is the lack of time to adequately prepare on the training pitches.
The demands placed on the Reds in the four competitions they enter every season whittles down the amount of days Klopp and his coaching staff have to work on team training either at Melwood or the AXA Centre in Kirkby.
Never was that more apparent than in the second half of last season when Liverpool ended up going all the way to the final of every cup competition to end their campaign with 63 games played.
