The sign is filled with optimism and reads “I hope your dreams are with Liverpool”.

It’s likely to refer to revelations by Sterling that he turned down a £100,000-a-week deal at Liverpool.

The 20-year-old Reds forward has come under fire following a television interview in which he attempted to defend his decision to turn down such an eye-watering figure.

For now, contract negotiations with Sterling have been put on hold until the summer as Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool bid to win the FA Cup to save a season looks unlikely to end with them in the top four of the Barclays Premier League.
