Former Liverpool prospect Kevin Stewart has recalled just how different it was playing for Liverpool than Tottenham.

The Jamaica international came through the Tottenham academy, graduating to the first team in 2013 before moving to Anfield on a free transfer the following year.

Stewart was on Liverpool's books for three years, spending time on loan at Cheltenham Town, Burton Albion and Swindon Town during his time at Anfield, before joining Hull on a permanent contract in 2017.

The 31-year-old made 20 appearances for Liverpool and spoke fondly of the time he spent there, likening the club to a family, as he contrasted the feeling he got at Liverpool with the one he got at Spurs.

"I would say the feel of Liverpool, and the camaraderie to a degree...

"Once you play for Liverpool, you're just kind of accepted into this sense of family and community.

"Both of them ran as businesses, but Spurs ran like more of a business, you felt like more of a player.

You're in London but there's just no real history there (in Tottenham), but in Liverpool, the whole place is Liverpool (Football Club), you don't even see Everton fans, I'd see one every now and then, but everything's Liverpool (Football Club), you're a part of that.

If you go into the shop and there's a Scouser there, you know you're probably going to get looked after the best."

Stewart added that moving to Liverpool changed his perception of the city, as he initially had doubts about the kind of people he might encounter there.

He added: "I loved Liverpool as a club but I didn't have the best idea of Liverpool as a place and people, but yeah when you get there...

everywhere you go, you're going to get two ends of the spectrum, you're going to get the amazing people, you're going to get the s--- people, but in Liverpool you do see a lot of the good people a lot more.

"They are really good people, a lot more friendly than people in London, they all see themselves as each other, whereas in London you're just random, you don't really care who that is, you don't see each other as the same, there's nothing that links you to him, but in Liverpool you're all linked to Liverpool, so that's where that family feeling comes from."
