New Fulham signing Ryan Babel has opened up on his challenging period with Liverpool, admitting that he did not fulfil his true potential during his first spell in the Premier League.
After emerging as a hot prospect with Ajax, Babel moved to Liverpool in 2007, but struggled to cement a regular place in the starting lineup during his four years with the club. He was notorious for his behaviour on social media, clashing with fans, coaches and referees before being sold to Hoffenheim in 2011.
After signing for Fulham, Babel conducted an honest interview with The Guardian in which he claimed that Liverpool did not manage his development properly.
