Danny Ings reveals ‘what if?’ scenario as Jurgen Klopp had plans for striker
Danny Ings has revealed Jurgen Klopp pushed for him to stay at Liverpool in 2018, opening up a ‘what if?’ scenario for the fit-again 16-goal striker. Ings endured a largely miserable spell on Merseyside following his switch from Burnley in 2015—a free transfer which was eventually deemed worth up to £8 million to Burnley. Two major knee injuries restricted him to just 25 appearances for the club, with eight of those coming in an initially promising run in the side before Klopp’s appointment. Klopp continually stressed his faith in a player stricken in the first training session he held at Melwood, with a 26-minute outing at West Brom on the final day of his first campaign at the club a gesture of his belief. But by the time he returned to full fitness after another layoff, the landscape of the squad had changed drastically: Roberto Firmino was first-choice striker, while Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah were immovable on the wings.

The Number Ones: Blondie’s “Heart Of Glass”
In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Blondie – "Heart Of Glass" HIT #1: April 28, 1979 STAYED AT #1: 1 week It finally happened. Punk crossed over in America. It just had to become disco first. All through the mid-to-late '70s, the era of disco and soft rock, punk rock had been percolating in Manhattan clubs. But almost none of the acts that came out of that universe ever had much to do with the pop charts. Patti Smith was the outlier; she charted as high as #13 with 1978's "Because The Night," though she needed a Bruce Springsteen co-write to do it. The Ramones' biggest hit, 1977's "Rockaway Beach," only made it to #66. Television, the Heartbreakers, and Richard Hell never charted. The Talking Heads managed one top-10 single over the entire course of their career — "Burning Down The House," peaked at #9, a 9 — and it didn't arrive

James Milner & Xherdan Shaqiri to miss Southampton – but Klopp sets return date
Jurgen Klopp has ruled James Milner and Xherdan Shaqiri out of Saturday’s clash with Southampton, but delivered good news on their return date. The pair have been sidelined since the start of January, with hamstring and calf problems respectively, with Milner missing four games and Shaqiri playing one of the last seven. Their absence has been softened by the return of Fabinho and the integration of Takumi Minamino, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and now Naby Keita are also available in midfield again. Southampton head to Anfield this weekend for the Reds’ last game before the winter break—with Klopp and his first-team squad not involved against Shrewsbury in midweek—but neither Milner or Shaqiri will be available. But the manager revealed that they would be back for the trip to Norwich on February 15, as will Sadio Mane provided his recovery from a hamstring injury goes to plan.

Jurgen Klopp insists only “100% right player” could strengthen his Liverpool squad
Jurgen Klopp admits it will not be easy to improve a squad which is running away with the Premier League but he has faith in their long-term transfer planning. Klopp has spent less than £10 million in the last two transfer windows—subject to what fee is decided on for 16-year-old Harvey Elliott’s summer move from Fulham. His only addition this month came in the shape of Takumi Minamino, whose £7.25 million move from RB Salzburg was too good to turn down, but with his players setting new standards domestically with a 19-point lead over second-placed Man City having dropped just two points in 24 matches, upgrading will be a tough task. “No-one here is relaxed, absolutely no-one is relaxed,” he said. “We are not really busy with transfer decisions for this period, this moment, but we are constantly in talks and exchanging ideas about what happens in the long term.

Liverpool’s focus is predominantly on the title at this stage, and having gone 19 points clear with a 2-0 win at West Ham in midweek they could extend that to 22 before Man City‘s trip to Tottenham on Sunday. But Klopp is aware of the challenge the Saints will pose, revealing he and his backroom staff reacted with a “wow” as they underwent analysis ahead of the game. “Southampton now looks like a pressing machine. Jumping at everything, pressing at the highest level, but playing football as well,” he told reporters on Friday.
