Lallana is an emblem for Klopp’s transformation, rediscovering the form that prompted Liverpool to pay £25 million to Southampton, their Capital One Cup opponents on Wednesday night; reconnecting with the style of another major influence in his career, Mauricio Pochettino.

“He is getting out of me what Mauricio asked of me at Southampton,” Lallana said. “The manager sets his team out the way Pochettino does – that is where I can see a similarity. He said to me in our first conversation how he’d seen me play at Southampton. Now the role I’m playing now is more like it was there.

“I don’t want to compare managers too much because it’s not fair, but the pressing style is similar to what I was used to. The demand is similar – put in the graft. He understands you will make mistakes and not play so well in a game but if you leave blood and sweat on the pitch for him – that is what he likes most.

“When Mauricio came in at Southampton he said 'this is what I demand from every single player. You cannot carry anyone.’ That’s what the new manager has brought with him here. There is no getting away from the fact in my first season here I did not perform as I would have liked. Injuries were a part of that but that’s not an excuse. We have good stages in our career and stages where you could do better. I’m certainly enjoying my football now.”

The trip back to St Mary’s, where Lallana was integral to the club’s rejuvenation over eight years in the first team, brings trepidation as much as the excitement of a quarter-final. He matured on and off the pitch when helping Southampton out of League One, prepared himself mentally and physically when leading the team out of the Championship, and moved up 'a couple of levels’ once Pochettino took over in the Premier League.

“I was a late developer,” Lallana says. “While Gareth Bale and Theo Walcott had the 'X-factor’ I was just gradually improving. I did not play my first full season until I was 21. I was professional but not to the point I should have been in terms of how I ate or how committed I was when I was younger. You have to be 100 per cent committed and professional from the youngest age or you won’t cope. My first season in League One under Alan Pardew was a big year for me. It was a good thing for me to have two seasons in League One and grow. When we got to the Championship I was ready. By 24 and the Premier League I was captain and then Pochettino came and that’s where I stepped up.
