[Music] uh Liverpool three Leicester city one uh the final score there was no Panic from Liverpool you felt today seon throughout this whole game there was just inevitability about it yeah it felt like a matter of time but obviously as I said the the key to the whole thing was getting that goal just before halftime that that sort of put everybody at ease I believe and in the second half was kind of what we expected just pressure pressure pressure and eventually leer broke that’s so good Don brilliant I mean I’m not going to lie down for 44 minutes I was squirming when when Leicester would nearly getting in at the break one up because that might have been a different story might not have been but you just felt as though the context of the goal from Cody gako who’s having a brilliant season by the way under Anna slot they’re so good to watch Salah you’d never take them off in any scenario unless you’re winning 5-1 or 63 like they were against Tottenham you might just bring him off but you leave him on because you know he’s going to score a goal I thought the main players for Liverpool today thought Virgil Van Dyk looked really good as normal I thought Trent was fantastic in the mental crosses that he put in the quality and how he sprayed the passes around um Salah obviously got his goal worth of mention but Cody gakpo I think is coming into True Form where he can lead the line through the middle I think Anor slot said to him you have positions off the left hand side facing goal because he can go either way he’s quick he can get to the by line on his left he can drop the shoulder on his right he scores goals he’s just in like scintilating form way he looks razor sharp since H slots come in you’ve got some of those players like gbo like graen bur who didn’t really make the impact that Liverpool fans were expecting to he seems to have taken them to the next level you got to wonder whether the fact that they’re all Dutch has got something to do with I know Anthony Anthony playing with with 10 hard didn’t he no I know but well you try you try to figure out reasons because klopp’s a fantastic coach he clearly is a players coach he clearly everybody loves him he clearly spends time with everybody but maybe I’m the slot just just culturally has a little spot where he understands what they need that maybe klopp or any other manager wouldn’t have because other than that it’s very difficult to put your finger on on a reason well tell like grinbergs is different I think the difference with Graber he he’s brought them a little deeper right than what we expected you know bay and previously he was further forward so so that I guess is easily explained but the GPO one is really difficult to explain other than he’s Dutch the coach is Dutch and maybe there’s a little word that he’s had in his ear that has just made the difference sometimes all it takes is a little line or a little nugget right you switch somebody on are you buying what Stevie is selling a little bit I I think I I think it’s more to do that I think when you look at how Jurgen klopp managed his team who was brilliant I think he probably would have went in at half time today a hair dryer approach whereas Cody gakpo draber might not appreciate that Cur Jones might not appreciate that one or two others will respond but I think we’re on a slot I think what he is he’s like he’s calm and it’s all about the passing I I would love to see at the very end of the season when you talk distance covered and how intense the runs are under Jurgen Club compared to Anna slotar because I watch apart from Trent I watch everyone pass the ball for Liverpool and it’s all 10 15 yards there’s no expansive passing 30 yard Hollywood Pass unless it’s Trent because he’s the one that can do it but everything’s calm you see van dijk get it and he’ll play a little wall pass a little onew into Midfield it’s all all tactical where he tries to shift the opposition out of their sort of positions they were doing that in the second half with Leicester and leester wouldn’t fall for it when they were 3-1 down they just thought we’re not running around anymore because you’ll pick us off and get four five or six so we’ll just have SE the 3-1 I think that’s the main difference the the slower calmer approach under slot compared to the heavy metal hair a treatment that Jurgen Club probably delivered to one or two players who might not have responded that way you ready for this Don go for it is Salah the best player in the world I think he is I think he is I think I think we all look at KY mbappe finny Junior’s had one or two injuries this season and he’s I love him I think he’s amazing but I think if you stand Mo Salah alongside Killian mbappe and you you ask for output I mean Killian’s one of these players where aesthetic Bally he looks amazing and you want to say he’s the best player in the world you want to with every fiber but when you look at what mosella does every single game the whole game in sport football whatever is you have to be effective you have to deliver and that’s what mosella does and has been doing it for a long long time how embarrassing it would be then if Liverpool let him go for three in the summer well I wouldn’t suggest they’re going to let them go I would suggest that they have a limit that they can go to and if he doesn’t accept it and it’s going to be a huge huge loss no question how do you deal with this Don you got to sign him you got to sign them done I mean look at the numbers I mean anywhere from 44 to 27s to 31s gu’s ridiculous and it’s not just being greedy look at the assists column as well you know it’s it’s apart from the six it’s double digits every single season so I mean listen I don’t know for certain but from what I hear I think van dijk and Salah are more likely to get done than Alexander Arnold and take your pick which one you think’s the most important I still think that Virgil Van djk is the most important but it can change every single week because Trent when he came on against Newcastle in the Tottenham game he proves to everyone there’s no right back in the world like him and then you look at Moos Sal’s numbers and the double digits and assist and goals and how on Earth you try and replace it you’d have to try and Moneyball it where if you got someone like kudus in from West Sam or Jared Bowen or elsewhere they might hit to like 10 15 20s but no one’s going to hit most Sal numbers it’s impossible could do some Boeing calm down Liverpool fans take a look at the title OD shall we look at this Liverpool our heavy favorites to win the title with Chelsea dropping points as I mentioned Arsenal taking on H switch tomorrow Liverpool going to win the league Stevie uh I think there’s no question right now it’s Liverpool’s to lose I I mean as simple as that it doesn’t it doesn’t seem possible that they can there’s going to be games where they’re not going to be at the best yeah that’s just the way it is but they got too much talent not to be able to overcome that and really when you’re on this type of run and you’re playing this type of football it’s going to take something incredibly unusual to to just completely wreck it so yeah this is Liverpool still lose now done yeah I I totally agree um they’ve got West Ham away next um if they can get over that hurdle then Man United at home where the adrenaline’s flowing the fans will be up for it the form that man united are in you’d imagine there’s another three points so it’s one of them where you’re sort of waiting for Arsenal to win tomorrow against IPS is probably likely which will cut the Gap a little bit but Liverpool they’ve got that game and hand but as long as they keep you know keep seven points ahead of Chelsea with a game and hand and nine against Arsenal game and hand or could be you know nine with a game and hand I I just think think the quality that they’ve got the f I mean Lis Diaz didn’t even come on the pitch today I mean I think he’s one of Liverpool’s best players me and Stevie chatted the other day a guy that’s now playing as a false nine so the talent that they’ve got Conor Bradley will be back canate will be back pretty soon as well you’re in a great position when when you’ve played this amount of games you’ve gone past the well it’s early season yeah that’s what he were saying when let’s see when they’re really tested What’s happen when you’re 17 games in you played everybody and you’re clearly the best team in the league yeah you go past the overthinking at stage you’re not even looking who you’re playing next week all you’re doing is turning up and playing and looking forward to playing and even the league you don’t even look at the league you just want to play again CU it’s enjoyable it’s fun [Music]
