'We don't like it and don't want it to happen' - Liverpool players uniformly oppose Super League

Liverpool icon Kenny Dalglish has called on the club to "do the right thing", while captain Jordan Henderson and the rest of the Liverpool squad confirmed that players are not in favour of joining the recently-announced Super League.

With Sunday's announcement, Liverpool were one of 12 teams confirmed to be involved in the new breakway competition, which also featured the rest of the Premier League's 'Big Six', alonside Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, AC Milan and Inter.

But that Super League is rapidly finding itself crumbling with Chelsea looking to pull out, Manchester City poised to join them and Barcelona potentially on the way out as well if the club's members vote against participation.
