Premier League: talking points from the weekend’s action

Klopp, Coleman and people of Liverpool dig deep for Sean Cox, Walcott needs to grow up and Watford enjoy belated SuccessThis is not about the game but something more important and giving credit where it is due. At Anfield on Saturday volunteers from Liverpool FC and Spirit of Shankly supporters’ union held a bucket collection to raise money for Sean Cox, the 53-year-old Liverpool fan who sustained life-altering injuries after being attacked before the Champions League semi-final against Roma in April. The father of three is undergoing rehabilitation in Dún Laoghaire but this will take many years and require significant funding. The fundraising appeal has attracted generous donations from Jürgen Klopp, Everton’s Séamus Coleman and the former Liverpool managing director Christian Purslow – plus many anonymous donors – and contributions from match-goers on Saturday. Liverpool have pledged their official charity, LFC Foundation, will match all money raised by the bucket collection on Saturday. A fundraising page for Sean Cox’s care can be found at ie.gofundme.com/SupportSeanCox. Andy Hunter Related: The Dozen: the weekend’s best Premier League photos Continue readingreadfullarticle
