Earlier report
One of the early positives at Liverpool under Andoni Iraola is a marked improvement to the defence. New arrival Jeremy Jacquet has formed a solid partnership with Virgil van Dijk and loanee Ronald Araujo has done a fantastic job as a makeshift right-back. Recent weeks have seen a slip in that improvement, with the Reds conceding three to both Manchester City and LASK, but overall the unit seems to be moving in a positive direction. There is still work to be done though and, with the potential exit of the legendary Virgil van Dijk looming, Liverpool are set to take on Real Madrid for one of Europe's top defenders.Read original report ↗
