'He looks really different': James Milner says Takumi Minamino 'looks fantastic' in training after benefiting from the suspension of the Premier League

James Milner believes that Liverpool new boy Takumi Minamino has benefitted from the football hiatus having initially struggled to settle at Anfield.

The Japanese forward has mainly been used as a fringe player for Jurgen Klopp's side, making seven appearances and clocking up 322 minutes.

However, Milner feels the suspension of the current campaign in March has helped Minamino settle into the club where he has now come back to training firing.
