Liverpool’s Klopp calls for consistency ahead of Sunderland game
But if Liverpool’s defence can be described as fragile then Sunderland’s is already shattered into a thousand pieces. Of course, he is not the same (type of) striker as Daniel (Sturridge ) and Divock (Origi ) because of the movements.

Former sex slave Lee Yong-soo shouts at First Vice Foreign Minister Lim Sung-nam, during his visit to a shelter for sexual slavery survivors in Seoul to brief them on an agreement with Japan, Tuesday.
