Liverpool youngster Rhian Brewster has delivered a tweet to Andy Robertson about popular Marks and Spencer sweet Percy Pigs.

The pair took part in a game for the club’s official app in which they had to guess member’s of the Reds’ dressing room based on a series of clues.

During the video, it emerged that the Scottish captain used to work in an M&S, to which he claimed that you could not get Percy Pigs abroad.

Brewster then sent Robertson a tweet in which he said: “Could take them in your suitcase”.

OPINION

There are a couple of points to make here. First of all, full credit to M&S, Percy Pigs are a truly superb confectionary item. Secondly, Robertson is actually wrong. It turns out that the supermarket have 428 stores across 56 international markets, so Percy Pigs are actually a global phenomenon. Most importantly though, this kind of video, as daft as it may seem, shows a level of camaraderie and togetherness in the Liverpool dressing room that is good to see. This season promises to be a long slog with plenty of obstacles, and if you have a group of players who can laugh and joke together, it will make it a whole lot easier for them to go out and win together. Jurgen Klopp is about as personable a manager as you can get, and it looks as if he has built a squad in his image. It may be about supermarket own brands sweets, but this tweet actually tells us a lot.
