Southern Storms: Birmingham Is Hit
A flash flood watch has been issued for parts of Tennessee following storms that have pounded the Southeast this week. At least 15 people have died as the outbreak of severe weather trenched through Mississippi, Tennessee and Arkansas.

Fifteen games in now and Jurgen Klopp will still be trying to work things out about his players and the best systems to deploy them in. He went on to say “It’s a big task”. It’s not a situation I want, though. “We are still at the beginning here”, added Klopp. “You have no break, too many tournaments”.


Manchester City unveil new club crest before home game against Sunderland
Joe Hart, Manchester City’s longest-serving player, told the official website : “I am really looking forward to wearing it. The new crest appears to be a throwback of sorts – indeed, it looks similar to the one the club used in the 1960s .

“I’m a very optimistic guy, but Stevie has another year’s contract in Los Angeles. Definitely not a loan spell now, but we will do it if we can”.


Alabama tornado adds to Christmas storm woes
Authorities confirmed seven deaths in MS , including a 7-year-old boy who was in a auto that was swept up and tossed by a storm. Governor Robert Bentley also declared a state of emergency across Alabama on Friday to deal with the effects of the storm.

Christian Benteke asked Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp what he wanted, then delivered the decisive goal on Saturday that handed English Premier League leader Leicester its first defeat since September.

“Of course it’s possible”, he said. I think Liverpool deserved to win. There are big prices on the market and things like this.

“He lives football, in every game and training session, so emotionally”.

Benteke has scored five goals since moving from Aston Villa but has struggled to adapt to the intensity levels demanded by the German manager.

“Now we need results again to stay in the race and so that everyone can keep believing in us”.

It left only Sakho and Kolo Toure – who has barely featured in the Premier League this season – as potentially Liverpool’s only available senior centre-backs.

“We started to play too late”, he said.

“The players know we are doing well but we haven’t achieved anything”.

Liverpool were less than impressive against Watford and when it comes to Klopp’s fabled “gegnpress” style, the Foxes have proved that they can press with the best this season.

“We need to concentrate from the first second onwards”, Klopp said. We aren’t planning on getting more players and more players and more players.

After four games without a win, and an ever-expanding injury list (senior players like Lallana, Firmino, and Benteke failing to consistently contribute), it’s clear that Klopp needs to do something in January to stop the rot.
