But there is something wholly appropriate about Joel Matip enjoying a renaissance as a building block in Jurgen Klopp's latest Reds revolution. Not once has Matip made the most appearances by a Liverpool centre-back during a season, although he shared the highest number with Dejan Lovren during his debut campaign. As a long-time servant under Klopp, Matip has long been aware of the need to evolve. "This is my eighth season at Liverpool and I have always tried to be the best that I could be for the team," he says. For now, though, Matip will look to continue a Reds revival that is proving as popular as it is welcome.
