Jurgen Klopp is backing Wataru Endo to thrive at Liverpool after failing to score at Anfield so far.The Japan international joined the Reds from Stuttgart in August but has struggled for minutes since his £16m move.
Alexis McAllister is sixth in the starting XI. But the German coach called for calm and insisted Endo still played his best game in “five years”. Klopp spoke to reporters via the Mirror. “In Endo, people think, because of his age, ‘Why doesn’t that guy exist?’ He has a different personality and a different way of going about things than other kids. He’s still playing his best five years as a football player.”Liverpool face fourth-placed Luton Town in the Premier League.

Szoboszlai recently spoke about life in England following his £60million move from RB Leipzig in the summer.
He told Hungarian podcast Premier Leak. She said: “I’d be lying if I said I feel lonely sometimes. There are days when I sit on the couch and don’t know what to do. Then I put on a movie and try to sleep with hope for tomorrow.”
