Since the turn of the New Year, Liverpool’s form has dipped – there can be no doubting that. Teams seemed to have picked up on Jürgen Klopp’s kryptonite: a low block, without any ambition to attack, frustrating and uncompromising in defensive stature.

With many great Liverpool players, there are often moments that come along that make you realise how special they are.

Being wrong is great. It’s an incredibly underrated skill.
