At some point during the March international break, there was seemingly a line drawn in the sand on this season by Jurgen Klopp and his staff.
While the majority of his players were away with their respective national teams, Klopp shunned the chance for a full week off, one he normally takes when the going is good, and instead got to work on plotting a way back towards the summit of English football.
Asked if he had used the break in play to make some notable in-roads on plans for next season with regards to recruitment, Klopp said; "That is the only thing we do in the international break, apart from have a few days off. The player side [was] positive, I would say. But [it was] talks not decisions - but we are busy."
