Achterberg on Adrian's extra sessions and Alisson's recovery

John Achterberg has explained how Adrian utilised the first week of the current international break to undergo extra training sessions at Melwood.

The goalkeeper spent time working with coaching staff – as well as youngster Jakub Ojrzynski - at the club’s West Derby base last week in a bid to ensure he’s feeling at his sharpest for the forthcoming batch of fixtures, which begin against Newcastle United on Saturday lunchtime.

Achterberg told Liverpoolfc.com: “We did a few extra sessions with them both last week at Melwood. Obviously Adrian came late in the summer to us and then after that he had an ankle injury, so we thought it would be beneficial to do some more sessions to keep it going, really.
