Jurgen Klopp has hailed Liverpool’s 7-0 victory over Manchester United as one of the best performances for a long, long time. However, despite the dismantling of the Reds’ bitter rivals, he wasn’t completely satisfied after the final whistle.
Braces from Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah gave the scoreline an already emphatic feel before substitute Roberto Firmino scored late on to wrap up the victory.
And while he was pleased at his side’s ‘top performance’, the German still admitted it was a ‘freak result’ and that he had had to remind his players to stick to the game-plan as they understandably got a little caught up in the occasion as the game wore on.
