After the international break, it’s never quite as easy as you would expect for a team to pick up where they left off. Jürgen Klopp alluded to this in his post-match presser, as he cited the return of both Firmino, Fabinho and Alisson as late as Thursday. For all this disruption though, Huddersfield were...
Liverpool were far from their best, but once again they got the result, as they secured a 1-0 win away at Huddersfield. But with the Reds’ unbeaten start stretching to nine games, what were the key stats from another crucial result?

Liverpool have equalled their best-ever start to a Premier League season but the increasingly frustrating wait for the Reds to come alive goes on.

A wretched international break filled with injuries is over. For the Liverpool players, it's time to get back on the road, as they get ready to travel to Huddersfield for the late kick-off on Saturday.
Huddersfield are winless in the Premier League, having only managed three draws from their eight games, and against a Liverpool...

Tonguy Ndombele
Lyon’s elegantly destructive central midfielder Tanguy Ndombele was called up to the French National Squad for the first time for this international break, and that comes off an extremely impressive 2018.
