Liverpool’s Twitter account shared a short one minute clip of the players taking part in Rondo training drills.
The lightning-quick passing shows off the incredible technique of the players. You can also see the great team spirit when a session ends after Xherdan Shaqiri’s ball is intercepted:
Rondos…and one or two nutmegs ??

Matip having the time of his Life.

It was also noticeable that Joel Matip was involved. The Cameroon international returned to full training last week after a month out with a broken collarbone.
He wasn’t selected to play in the 1-0 win against Brighton but was on the bench. The centre-back is likely to start when Liverpool face Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
With Dejan Lovren and Joe Gomez still out injured, the Reds will be glad to have the 27-year-old back in the fold, and with Trent Alexander-Arnold out for a month, it at least gives manager Jurgen Klopp more options in defence.
