Steve Kerr was pictured spending time in Liverpool this summer and has been talking about the lessons he learned, after meeting Jurgen Klopp and the rest of our squad.

Speaking about the experiences learned during his time at the AXA Training Centre (via marcstein.substack.com), the 56-year-old said: “The way to approach tough spells — through total honesty with the team, communication and the constant themes of joy and competition.

Fingers crossed it can have a positive impact for both men and clubs.
