RB Leipzig v Liverpool: five players for Jürgen Klopp to be wary of
Liverpool’s Champions League opponents will have noted their struggles and RB Leipzig have the players to trouble them
If the name rings a bell that you cannot quite place it is probably because, for half a decade, he was a squad goalkeeper at Liverpool who never progressed beyond the substitutes’ bench. Loans with Hereford, Tranmere and Hull put 50 Football League appearances under his belt but it was at Red Bull Salzburg that he began to showcase the potential that had persuaded Liverpool to take him from MTK Budapest in 2007. That inevitably alerted RB Leipzig, then a promotion-chasing Bundesliga 2 club, and he has been more or less immovable since their ascent to the top flight five years ago. Like one of his idols, Petr Cech, Gulacsi is unshowy but exudes quiet competence and authority. At 30 he is in his prime and, in his home town, will be ready to show his old club how much he has grown up.
