Koscielny - Anfield Index

It took some doing for Liverpool to best their most ridiculous performance of the season, but somehow they managed to do it.

He is comfortable getting tight on strikers, stepping up and defending on his massive front foot, but he is also a fantastic defender in the box, never caught out of position and a fully committed header of the …
