The Liverpool squad made their annual Christmas visit to Alder Hay Children's hospital on Monday afternoon - and were even able to put a smile on a young Everton fan's face.
The Reds headed to the hospital shortly after undergoing training at Melwood on Monday, as manager Jurgen Klopp and skipper Jordan Henderson led the players around the wards.
Groups of players split up into groups in order to spread as much festive cheer as possible, chatting to patients, signing autographs, chatting to parents and posing for photos.
The squad also handed out gifts and a group consisting of Jordan Henderson, Adam Bogdan, Danny Ings and Philippe Coutinho were even able raise a smile out of an Everton-supporting youngster - who will no doubt have reminded them of Sunday's Merseyside derby.
