Despite spending almost half a billion in the summer, things have not clicked for the Reds, and the frustration is now starting to become evident in the body language of players."
"Vice-captain Andy Robertson had a visibly angry outburst during a training drill involving Cody Gakpo and Florian Wirtz. The incident occurred during a quick-reaction sprinting drill designed to test the players' speed and agility.

After what he believed was a winning effort, Robertson was reportedly told he had lost the race."
