Dejan Lovren started the season as one of the most maligned players and in the eyes of the fans, the fifth choice centre back, behind Martin Skrtel, Mamadou Sakho, Kolo Toure and harshly even Joe Gomez (Gomez came as a centre-back even though he can operate on the flanks and started the season as first […]
“Next season is our year.” “We’ll be better next season.” “Just wait until after the summer.” “The push for Champions League is next year.” You’ve heard them all. I’ve heard them all.
