Bajcetic shares his off-the-pitch hobbies

"He used to beat me every time but sometimes he let me win," Bajcetic told about his grandfather, who taught him to play chess. "Now I'm more competitive." The midfielder adds that only Mo Salah can beat him in chess among Liverpool players.

"When I had the opportunity to have a good camera, I bought one. Since then I just love to take pictures," the 19-year-old added.

"I have them there, sometimes I check them, sometimes I forget. But maybe one day I will see them all and think, 'That was a beautiful place' or 'I had so much fun in that location'. It's just like memories I take into my photos.

"Sometimes I just take pictures of the city if I think the light is good or I think that's a beautiful building or something. I just take it and keep it there. It's no harm to anyone."

Wright agrees with Klopp over City game timing

Last week, Jurgen Klopp expressed his disappointment that the Man City v Liverpool game is scheduled for an early kick-off on Saturday, November 25.

Premier League legend Ian Wright has agreed with the German. He said on the Kelly and Wrighty show: "I feel sorry for [Klopp]. A game of that magnitude and how good it is, I’d have loved for that to be in the evening”

Roberto Firmino's father tragically dies

Jose Cordeiro, the father of former Liverpool fan favourite Roberto Firmino, died aged 62 of a heart attack during a family trip to Dubai. Firmino's representative confirmed the information to Brazilian news outlet UOL.

In his biography released earlier this year, Firmino wrote: "Not all heroes wear capes; some are called Dad. My father, José, was my childhood hero, an inspiration and an example. A generous, serious, honest man dedicated to the family."
