Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler is worried about the club's decisive week ahead.

He wrote for the Mirror: "Another break for Liverpool – another chance for them to lose their rhythm in my eyes.

"Look, I must admit with all the injuries they had, they'll have been able to use the time off to get some players back fit and get their training organised, and work on things.

"Yet you know my feelings on momentum and playing. I hated not being involved in games when I was a player, I hated being rested.

"I'd much rather win and take the energy and rhythm from that, ... just as Manchester City have done in recent weeks.

"So I'm a bit apprehensive about which Liverpool we will see next week against Bayern Munich and Manchester United."
