Former Liverpool striker Dean Saunders tells Jurgen Klopp: ‘Sell Philippe Coutinho in January and revamp your defence!’

Former Liverpool striker Dean Saunders has told the club to cash in on Philippe Coutinho in January and use the funds to give their defence a much-needed makeover.

The Reds’ defensive frailties were in the spotlight once again on Wednesday as they let another lead slip to draw 2-2 with Sevilla in the Champions League.

Jurgen Klopp’s men have conceded eight goals from their opening four Premier League games this season, and their sloppy back-four was exposed again as Sevilla scored from their only two shots on target.
