Liverpool head into the two-week international break with a sense of renewed confidence after picking up a much-needed win over Ajax last week.
The 4-1 defeat by Napoli on the opening night of the Champions League had put a downer on Jurgen Klopp’s side, who have not been able to respond in the Premier League, with two fixtures postponed following the Queen’s death. While many Liverpool players will now be heading off to join their international teams, many will use the time for a rest.
Happily, the Reds’ injury problems are beginning to ease and Klopp should have a refreshed squad to pick from by the time the next game against Brighton on October 1 rolls around. In the meantime, allow Mirror Football to get you up to speed with the latest headlines from around the club.
