Ferdinand: 'Liverpool are feeling the pressure'

The former English international defender believes that Liverpool are starting to feel the pressure of a title race as their recent impressive form was hindered slightly by a 1-1 draw against Leicester at Anfield on Wednesday. This draw meant Liverpool failed to extend their lead over Manchester City and Rio Ferdinand attributes this to nerves getting the better of them under pressure.

Klopp, however, is confident that the four-day gap between the next fixtures will allow his players time to recover and eradicate any issues that may have affected their performance against Leicester City.
