Isn't his dad the guy who trained Sonny to be so good with both feet? I think his dad should share his methods because it is so rare to see a genuine world class player equally good on either foot. Remember my grandad saying Bobby Charlton was as good shooting with his left foot from long distance as his right.
Yes he is. This is a fairly awful video, but it does have some decent quotes from the father and the strict techniques he used to get Sonny to develop.

IIRC in Sonsational he said he used to do keepy ups with his weak foot for hours every day.

Quite incredible really that after a gruelling season, the day after the final game he goes straight to his academy to do his bit there inspiring kids.

What a man. I think I have developed a man crush on our Sonny.

A classic case of ‘he’s worth more to us than anything they’d be willing to pay’. Liverpool aren’t paying over £100m for a 30 year old, and there’s no way we’d sell for less.

A Mancunian Liverpool supporting mate of mine just sent me a link from the Liverpool Echo saying the big dippers are considering making a big bid for son

I told him not a chance

I think this was dismissed earlier. Essentially the story goes that earlier in the season Liverpool were thinking about it, but the success Conte has had, and Son's golden boot put a stop to it.

Not sure why they thought a mediocre season would have made him attainable. Son signed a new contract even before Conte took charge.

Don’t forget it is the scousers we are talking about here.

Every time we play them Klopp is up his hole after the game. He was caught saying "Here (Anfield) is special" after the last game to Sonny.

No chance they could get him. Even if Sonny went for it, which I doubt, Levy is not selling one of our best players and especially not to a rival.

Klopp really is a hypocritical, fake, sneaky, salty c**t. He's been trying to unsettle Martinelli as well in every interview after they play Woolwich. The man is nothing more than a charismatic bully who can't take defeat or having anyone challenge him.

Is anyone a tiny bit concerned if mane leaves Liverpool, they will go for Son?
Not really.

Son signed his new deal last summer when we were in a really bad state, so if he was mad enough to be loyal then now we’re in a much better place I’d find it odd if he wants to leave now.

Gutted I can't get back up there for the tour because of personal stuff.

My Mancunian Scouse supporting mate said Son would jump at the chance to play for Liverpool as he has always wanted to play for Kopp.
I asked when had Son told him that?
