Jurgen Klopp says Cody Gakpo "eats football" in glowing Liverpool admission

Gakpo, 24, was used in the No.9 role with Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah either side as the Reds swept aside Leicester at the King Power Stadium on Monday. Curtis Jones scored twice, while Trent Alexander-Arnold put the icing on the cake as Klopp's side recorded their seventh straight win.
