Fans, Supporters and a Red named Dejan Lovren

Liverpool centre-back, Dejan Lovren, was named the club's Player of the Month for October via popular vote through the team website.

Liverpool’s Chance to Turn a Corner

It’s fair to say that Liverpool haven’t been brilliant of late. Before the 3-0 win over Huddersfield on Saturday Jurgen Klopp’s team had won twice in their last 10 games.
