Steve McManaman believes the negative impact of Liverpool's role in the proposed European Super League has swept across the city.

The backlash has been widespread since those involved were forced to ditch the breakaway plans, with significant protests seen from Chelsea and Arsenal fans while Liverpool's owner John W Henry released an apology video.
