Jamie Carragher has admitted that he was surprised by Cody Gakpo's "fantastic" running power after the Dutch forward bagged a double to down Manchester United at the weekend.
Gakpo's slick first-half opener proved to be the catalyst for a historic 7-0 win, with the 23-year-old's strike partners Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah also scoring twice for the Reds. Roberto Firmino stepped off the bench to complete the rout in the dying embers of the match to cap a memorable afternoon at Anfield.
Gakpo has enjoyed a steady start to life on Merseyside after Liverpool pipped Manchester United to a £37million deal for the versatile forward on Boxing Day, but he was absolutely electric against Erik ten Hag's side on Sunday.
