Liverpool have been busy in the past couple of days. The Reds have secured a couple of new signings in order to bolster the depleted back line. Jürgen Klopp will be hoping to bed in his new arrivals as soon as possible. Some Liverpool fans want Ben Davies to start against Man City after seeing clips of him playing the Citizens.

Some Kopites have been raving over footage of Davies from when he faced Pep Guardiola’s side in the cup earlier this season.
