Andy Hunter was at Anfield, and his report has landed. Here it is! Thanks for reading this MBM.

Jurgen Klopp’s turn. “Everyone wants an analysis of the game. I will not deliver that, I am not interested today! We had to get through this. Big compliment to Watford and especially to Roy, who we could bring back when he is 80 and he will set up and organist a team in a really good way. We could definitely have done better but that is not too interesting today. We need maturity and desire, and the counter press was the best I have seen for a long time. But with the ball we could have been more creative. We were in control and I was really happy about it.” As for Gomez’s delivery from the right wing? “Joey did well defensively but offensively as well. We had some banter on the bench and I told [Alexander-Arnold] that it was not him, it’s just the position that makes the crosses!”
