Liverpool goalkeeping coach John Achterberg has found himself literally taking one for the team this season.
The 45-year-old former Tranmere keeper has received more bumps and bruises in training sessions than previous years but it is all for the greater good as he seeks to get the best out of those in his charge.
Achterberg has been working to bring more aggression to Simon Mignolet's game and it appears to be bearing fruit - even if the coach is counting the physical cost.
'We talk about how we can implement aggressive situations in training,' Achterberg said.
