How nutrition expert Mona Nemmer helped revolutionise Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp might have sparked a football revolution on the pitch since his arrival at Liverpool but there's another crucial factor at play behind the scenes.

Mona Nemmer, the club's head of nutrition who arrived at Anfield from Bayern Munich in the summer, has been a critical part of the Reds' rapid rise from midtable also-rans last season to title contenders this.

The 32-year-old German, who Klopp says 'mothers' the Liverpool players, has implemented a raft of changes to the dietary routines of the squad over the past six months after being handed complete control.
