FSG transfer plan has failed at Liverpool as Jude Bellingham responds to Jamie Carragher

FSG transfer plan has failed as Jurgen Klopp looks to steer Liverpool away from crisis

Having successfully turned Liverpool from doubters to believers since taking over at Anfield in October 2015, Jurgen Klopp’s Reds have been crowned champions of England, Europe and the world while winning every major honour on offer to them.

Yet even by such sky-high standards, they could have achieved their finest hour last season as they chased down an unprecedented quadruple. Lifting both the League Cup and FA Cup, they’d agonisingly fall short when it came to both Premier League and Champions League titles.

The 19-year-old continued to make the headlines on Tuesday night as he scored Borussia Dortmund's equaliser in their 1-1 draw with Sevilla. Tanguy Nianzou headed the Spanish outfit in front before the in-demand midfielder restored parity.

Jurgen Klopp was forced to defend his squad again in his press conference ahead of the reverse meeting with Glasgow Rangers, following Sunday's defeat to Arsenal.
