well hna the Run goes on how much satisfaction do you get from the result and maybe more importantly the performance yeah although the end the result is the most important thing but um yeah performance was was great because I think if you want to win if you want to win against a team like City you have to be good in every part of in every part of football so high defending low defending build up high low everything because they bring so much challenges now we weren’t perfect but we came quite close U to managing it all congratulate Liverpool deserve the the victory the first 50 20 minutes wasn’t stoppable so I think second half in the last 20 minutes the first half was was good without much threat I would say they are strong in B boxes that we are not in at the moment six goals in your last seven games how is life uh yeah life is good uh we’re winning games as a team so yeah it feels good um but yeah everybody knows the season is not over yet so we have to stay focused 34 points through 13 games it’s a it’s a joint Premier League record for a new manager in the competition with Gus hid in yeah absolutely um how are you staying so so cool and calm throughout it all you never seem to change your demeanor no matter no that’s what I’m trying you have to be uh calm and collected and see what happens and after every results just analyze and uh not get carried to away too much with a win or with a loss I have to find the the solution to be a stable to don’t be solid behind especially and in the right moment and suffer together but so what can I say these players give me the chance to live the best maybe the best years of my life and in the right moment the club would take the decision what is need you know to the this club continue to be there and felt very comfortable for Liverpool didn’t it that’s because it was I think it was from the very first minute to the last minute I never ever thought anything other than three points for Liverpool Man City might have came into it in terms of possession wise a little bit more in the second half but they had nothing in terms of creativity and Liverpool were as good as perfect in almost every position they were absolutely outstanding um so yeah it was a it was a great day for uh for for um for Liverpool um they just opened City up and it’s alarming on the turnover how easy City are to play through they had one pass there which took three PL the game the second pass then takes another two out and all of a sudden you’re 4 V3 and within two or three passes you’re in the final third and you’re creating chances so there were several warnings for uh for Manchester City we knew it was going to be a tough game but then just have a look at Kyle Walker where he’s off here harland’s got control of the ball okay and then Liverpool press press really well but Walker’s now out of the game and he can’t get back and all of a sudden same thing again they win the ball and then they should he he should do better and should get his shot away earlyer they had warnings but then David they were punished yeah they were and uh you know in the past we’ve seen Man City been much higher defensively but probably results have affected them a little bit confidence-wise as well but I’m a lot I’m disappointed Ki here doesn’t get out much quicker to Salah certainly engage him outside the box if you can allow Salah to pick it up run at him and actually the next part now I’m really hoping that my teammate bails me out and actually think that Aki should stop the crossing across the goal he really does and it’s his job to stop the ball going through there and is it’s it’s a it’s an excellent pass for Salah but I’d be disappointed if I Aki not stopping that balling through which gives him the first goal but even here though and we’ been used to seeing City playing out but the difference for me was a Ki get into Midfield and just Aki and Di and the distance between them Liverpool as we all know have been a really good press team for the last few years but certainly under AR as well just now they’re doing a great job but just here it just looks as if there’s no real great defensive organization at the time and Liverpool miss a great chance to go get another goal and just on this one a bit later on just which leads to to the Penalty Keller looks to drop the ball in and I think there’s three occasions here where Man City defensively could do better there’s one there’s two and then k wat’s a chance maybe to tidy up as well and before you know it they’ve got them in a situation where they they’re giv away and at this time they were very much still in the game you know it was only one n at the time they were in the game you know the two two of those clips that you showed with with City both in and out of possession the distances between them looked a lot bigger than we would normally expect is that fair well I think it is fair on on what we saw today I mean look we’ve got to say Liverpool had a great result in midweek against Real Madrid and they’re playing very well lots of confidence Man City not quite so much at the moment but it’s just not it’s just not things we’ve seen in the past of Man City we’ve not seen as big of gaps maybe we’ve not been looking close enough to see it but the fact is that recently they looked as if they’re more liable to concede lots of discussions at the moment about Liverpool’s out of contract players and who they might keep and who not you’d stick a new contract under V van dijk’s nose wouldn’t he well his performance today was was superb all around with h just with his General play and he’s he’s positioning you know and I didn’t see you know I don’t see the the the Liverpool Center halfes going walk around too much certainly van djk done a great job and dealing with the balls coming into the box positional wise whether it be defending corners or clearing the ball we all know that his strengths are so good but I thought today when he was needed he he came up trumps they never hit the ball in behind very often Man City I didn’t think they didn’t play behind but when they did Van’s covering was excellent and even here it looks simple to clear it as a central Defender but the important thing was that he was in the right place at the right time as well and H you know all round his performance was excellent he comes across here reads the danger blocks once again and and his performance was excellent and this was his only blip in the the whole game and uh and it gave it would have just given Man City an opportunity to get back into the game but Keller who has been excellent for them come up trums with a safe that’s I mean that was your position that that was where you play as a player so so when you look at him he what what impresses you is it his reading of the game well he’s a brilliant reader of the game all around he’s he’s a top Center half and everybody’s aware of that but for me it’s the basics you know that he’s winning his headers what he should do he he fought howand throughout the game you know it made howand look as if he had very little opportunities in the game know defended the box when he needed to do so played High when he needed to do so as well and actually we missed him he had a couple of really good headed goal chances himself today hit the post from ah header and another one he probably should have scored of so he was a he was a huge sort of help in both boxes today um and for all of his defensive brillians today city were blunt going forward as well yeah they didn’t offer anything it’s not just defens L they having one or two problems all it’s actually going forward this was a constant ey other than the ons that David just shown with Harland running in behind everything basically was Man City players coming to the game and not turning the Liverpool players anywhere near enough which made it really a comfortable afternoon for them so they changed it in the second half and then they bring Dau on to bring something different and to go pass players and when he did that he just couldn’t find that simple pass that is a simple pass he goes goes past Trent and he does the same thing again but it’s alarming the lack of movement from svenia and from from Harland but that ball has to come in and someone has to get on the end of it because dku gets into that really really good position but look what he does he checks back they pass back he gives then Liverpool players time to go and regroup and get behind the ball again then he gets into a decent position this time Trent defends him really really well similar thing again he goes he goes past him he gets to the by line but again there’s just no movement but the ball should come in it has to come in there otherwise the forward stop running so about Man City giving up space in front of their back four it’s also about them not creating enough chances Holland’s Got 12 goals but the next to him is is to is is vardal and ktic with three each so and 22 goals in the in the league so other players have to start chipping in foran hasn’t scored in the league Bernardo Silva hasn’t greish hasn’t gundan hasn’t so they need more from other players as well what you laughing at I’m laughing because I’m laughing because even 20 years after you stop playing watching a game with you when a Winger doesn’t put the ball into the box you still get absolutely fic well I well I I do I get really frustrated because a Winger’s job is to part of the job anyway is to get the ball into the box they being brought on to do something different and he does ever so well getting to the by line and getting to those really d ous positions but then why go back why try and beat the defender again when you’re in such a good position right calm out on Liverpool now have unbelievable position that they are in after just 13 games what a lead they have what is given this is your craft as well what has impressed you most about Anna slot so far how he’s taking over from a legend in in uran klopp made it look simple really I could tell you it’s never easy when you’re taking over from a great manager uh and he’s done so and I think that he’s he showed real humility you know and he’s gone about his job very quietly he’s not been shouting about it and I think that I think the players are responding to the way he’s acting as well at the moment Liverpool have looked a really good team since the start a bit recently they’ve they’ve committed really good for yeah and I think uh live we’re going to be joined by the Liverpool manager Anna slot on the back of this two-nil Victory against Manchester City very well done thank you very much indeed for joining us so I mean you’ve had some week we’ll come to that in a moment but how how did you enjoy that today and how good a performance from your team was that today yeah I think I’ve enjoyed two things first of all the performance of the team and second of all the atmosphere in the stadium because if the players were on top of it I think the fans were on top of it today as well yeah put that into perspective cuz even we who’ve been coming here for years and years and years thought that was extra special from the supporters today okay so just how did that feel in the Dugout as the manager to to feed um n generally speaking you’re only focus on what city does and what we have to do because they can cause you so many problems so um you have to keep staying alert all the time I think it was 10 minutes before the end even before feril make the only mistake of the game um the fans were so loud at that moment you felt like okay this is something new for me as well uh they’ve they’ve been behind us every single game but this was this this was really massive but yeah then feril cut me out of it by making a small error but qu was there to save us he was and and at the start as well I mean obviously you got the goal after 12 minutes but the way you started today aror I mean I think front foot something of an understatement yeah um but that probably also has to do with with uh with with City who wanted to bring the ball out from back that’s what they always do that’s where they’re so good at so if you want to have any chance of recovering a ball uh then you have to be so so so aggressive if you’re not they play through you so easily so the only way to press them high is be aggressive and that’s what we were uh I think M most part of the game although the second half we had to defend low as well honor it was incredible first half as good as I’ve seen anfield for for a long time in the second half City had a little bit more possession was that a tactic from you to almost sit back and play a little bit more Counterattack or is that just because they’re a quality team and you had to suffer at certain periods yeah the last thing so ideally we would have done the same as the first half but but yeah you face a team that has so much quality and um uh I think after we made the substitution again when Darwin came in we had that same aggression again and and and maybe the legs again to press them a bit higher uh but yeah it it also comes down to the quality of city it’s impossible to keep them away from your 18 yard box for 90 minutes but it was a good thing to see if they were in around the 18 yard box that we were still there to defend for me I just think like um do do you think you were a little bit worried because at the start of the game your pressing was incredible and you should have been like two three n really and then uh it didn’t happen in one whe was I think a tough score and uh there’s a moment where I feel I felt like the the energy dropped a little bit you little bit worri in that moment thinking we have to careful there yeah you’re always happy if you’re one up against City because that doesn’t happen a lot for any team in the world and also for us not in the last few games uh the rain is coming down uh but um but yeah if you looked at the amount of chances we had I think one nil after yeah whatever period of time wasn’t what we deserved but yeah there was a lot of confidence in the way we defended as well so yeah then again if we would have scored earlier the nurse would probably been a little bit less but maybe it’s also part of this game because I think everybody enjoyed it till the last minute yeah I’m sorry I’m just I’m just really interested to hear your thoughts such an incredible team you’ve got you know most Salah Savas these kind of players who can dominate a game like this but to see Joe Gomez come in qu ker if you like under studies in the squad but I thought they were incredible today how do you feel getting to know your team getting to know your players your confidence as a as a squad how are you feeling in December people once told me that wearing this is a problem for a manager but uh not if he holds it my vacation in life AR I go on sorry uh no but that that is definitely the strength you need to have as a team that wants to compete at different stages so we play Champions League we play uh uh uh Premier League all these games are so so tough so you need to have a a full Squad of quality players and that’s what we’re having but you probably also saw today that we only have five Defenders available for four position that was also the reason why Trent off because he comes back from hamstring injury to play him 90 and Wednesday again and Saturday again in the mercy TI Derby so we need to rotate also in that position but it was it wasn’t a surprise for the Liverpool fans because they saw Joe Gomez playing like this for so many times and I saw him against Brighton playing like this and today he was outstanding again and Ju Just Qui very quickly I mean I know you don’t look at the league table after 13 games but we do but let’s let’s be honest could you have dreamt of being nine points clear at this point no first of all not because um they they will be up there again as well uh and city has s on playing today okay they lost today but uh um I’m I’m I’m I’m 100% sure that they will compete this season again with us with Arsenal and with Chelsea so a long way to go but it’s a good position to have certainly is listen very well done today thank you for joining us you do realize the amount of stick I’m going to get now for holding a Ry for the Liverpool manager thank you no problem Anna take care there we go let’s put that down there before Michael gives me any more um stick Wally with the Broly with the Wally with the Broly right okay that’s the happy side of the story the other side is Manchester City’s let’s get some reaction from their dressing room here’s the goalkeeper Stephan OA seeding a lot of goals from when the ball goes out in wide positions into space and I know you’ve not you know you’ve had a good view of it from The Dugout as well is that becoming an issue I don’t know um it’s just like sometimes you have have this run uh in the last years in this club they um had the opposite like where we won everything and now it’s the opposite uh where we have the negative run so it’s just like keep going um because there’s still so much quality in this building um so yeah just keep going and pep turned around to the Liverpool fans and showed them six fingers the six trophies Defiance there there’s a lot of fights still in that dressing room Stefan yeah of course because uh we are not used to it to to lose that many games um and yeah we will come back for sure and just finally 11 points is a lot isn’t it Liverpool the distance between you and them I don’t know um we just have to look on ourself right now um and start to win and then yeah just go step by step Manchester City’s worst winless run since 2004 we’ve gone up in the stakes from the Liverpool manager to Steve McManaman he’s got a couple of Champions Leagues to go on a slot yet before he reaches your level and what did you you were just alongside what do you make of that today and and the whole atmosphere the whole ground oh yeah it was magnificent wasn’t it the fans the crowds the noise I thought the team Liverpool were very very dominant as dominant a performances I’ve seen against Manchester City in a while um very impressive Manchester City on the other hand I thought they were a little bit naive in the first half trying to play out from the back and constantly getting caught and I felt sorry for aing Harland he wasn’t really in the game they didn’t knock anything long to him when it wasn’t working but you can’t get away from the fact that Liverpool whoever plays who’s ever in the starting 11 is in wonderful wonderful form and um you know the the fans left here very very happy you you myself Michael we’ve had this conversation earlier on let’s not get you were one let’s not get two carried away they not played anybody yet when you look at it now I never said that no earlier on you said the big boys going come Arenal Chelsea yeah absolutely but now now they’ve played them all and they haven’t lost to any of them they’ve beaten most of them yes and again I’m not going to stand here with you Steve and say oh they’re going to win the league and they’re going to be this I mean the performances and the level of performances have been outstanding the results equally you know theyve get they they’ve got now a big lead ahead of everybody else so it’s up to Liverpool now to keep on rolling along but I’m not going to say they should win the league because of X Y and Z I’ve said before you have to keep everybody fit you have to keep everybody hungry and if they do get a number of injuries to key players they will struggle but at this moment in time they’re in such a dominant position it’s fantastic to see to beat the European Champions and the English Champions in the space of four days without conceding a goal here it’s some week isn’t it you look at that and you think Real Madrid and then Manchester City you know they’re in a good position already in the in the Champions League so even if they had got a draw it would have been absolutely fine but to dominate them and then to come here and dominate the reigning Champions as well and and it was it was a total domination I mean City deserved nothing out of that game um it’s impressive and as Maka says they’re in great form at the moment but we’ve seen SOA City two months ago and they’ve been in great form for for four five six years so it just shows you things can go wrong one big injury one problem off the pitch something can happen and it can derail you in this game so everybody’s right in thinking right just a game at a time and I know it sounds boring and monotonous but it is it’s a game at a time cuz things can go wrong quite quickly but at the moment I mean if Liverpool keep this form it’s they’re going to win the league 100% but that’s the problem you sense this Mar in that great Real Madrid team that you played and when you when you get on the pitch the belief you’ve got if you in that Liverpool dressing room at the moment doesn’t matter who you’re playing when you come out Real Madrid Manchester City you’re believing you’re going to win every game also like what’s that yes but Steve you you’ve heard the noise you he the noise here Wednesday you he it today you know if you’re a member of the opposition and you come here you almost feel as if you one nil down when you when you run out of the tunnel and they were constantly singing and getting behind the team and whistling the opposition that really plays a part and um you know the fact that Liverpool are coming out onto the pitch they feel as if they’re just going to run over Manchester City that’s what you felt today you felt if Liverpool were at it that Midfield you just thought Gund were in there Nune in there Bernardo Silva you just thought Liverpool I have them today Liverpool will run all over them today and I thought exactly the same when they played Real Madrid Real Madrid had a few weaknesses of course through injuries and that’s what you thought thought about Manchester City without rodri without Kevin De bruyne star names of the pass you just thought to yourself today Liverpool will win and you were waiting for something to happen to prove you wrong and actually it was never coming wasn’t it as Michael rightly said there Manchester City didn’t really offer much even with the substitutions I thought doku came on when he I thought he did well when he came on to a certain extent but there was no there was no final punch to to to what Manchester City had and that’s very very rare to say because normally they are ruthless so they have to find a way to get back into this title race they need to they need to start getting wins from somewhere they need to change it round I don’t know what they’re going to do but they need to certainly need to get one of the best center forwards around at the moment into the game more cuz he hardly got a touch today I thought Gomez and considering he hasn’t played brilliant brilliant I think when you lose when you lose a little bit of confidence because as a as a as a top team they never been in that situation and AD the moment EV player from this team uh losing a little bit of confidence and that’s really difficult and they need something they need to win a game and then to believe to come come again you know because as a player is always really really tough when you go in those moments yeah you could tell you could tell col they’ve not been in this situation before as I said I said it before the game a lot of the players haven’t experienced Full Stop in their in their career and certainly in their you know the modern day Manchester City’s career so they were just looking at each other who’s going to step up and and I I actually didn’t see anyone necessarily taking control of the game Rico Lewis tried to take a few balls on the half turn than that Harland as you said M he barely touched the ball they didn’t and and anytime had his number he was ready he was waiting he knew he could tell when man city was almost a desperate ball into the middle and he said yes please I’ll deal with that all day long and then there was just you know an slot just talked about that one laps in concentration but we know Kevin De bruyer in form there slots that goes and gets the ball out the net and makes it an interesting last 10 minutes but didn’t even the the whole the whole stadium didn’t really skip a beat he saved it they moved on it was like it never happened from the start of the game there’s few moment where Bernard SAA which is the CEST player in the team is SM to ball you know ball coming normally you control the ball and then just get control of the game but from the start you could feel like they they lost a little bit of confidence and they need to get that back he only will come by winning a game and that’s it yeah they play a forest of course next who are the only team uh to be on a slot here um I don’t know if you heard the most Sal interview there I didn’t know sorry he he joked and he said probably the last time I play for Liverpool at anfield against Manchester City well you’re laughing is this is this a a game of chess here what’s of course it is I mean Steve we don’t know the the new onces of his contract I don’t know whether he wants four years or three years or two you know Liverpool won to offer two for instance he might won four um you know you can imagine mo mo Sal’s contract is very complicated image rights because of of where of where he’s from and things like that and um I don’t necessarily think should be a problem financially but it might be it might just be a case of him wanting four years who knows but if that’s the case I know Liverpool are certainly talking to his agents and they they must be far apart at the moment that’s why there hasn’t been any concrete offer it’s Point as Li Liverpool making an offer for them to say no straight away is or his agent to say no so I presume they’ll be still talking and hopefully all the Liverpool fans will agree that they come to a they come to a you know a happy medium to a certain extent but I can understand why it’s taken time I’ve got no problem with it really I mean if wants 10 years and Liverpool saying no and he wants 10 years then it’s going to be a no isn’t it so you have to draw the line somewhere but we all hope that they come to an agreement how do you see it in terms of because he’s gone vocal and he’s gone public does that show to you that he actually does want to sign it’s just almost putting Liverpool’s hand to the fire in many ways and and almost you know that’s what that’s exactly how I think I think he wants to stay I think he wants to stay um because if he wants to leave he might as well have already told us that he wants to leave wouldn’t he you know he’s only got a couple of weeks on but I mean most clubs if would have been in touch with his agents already if they want to take him so he knows it there’s probably lots and lots of offers on the table for him already and he’s probably just pushing Liverpool to get what he wants to stay here otherwise why would you be so vocal but you also know that Liverpool want us want him to stay but the the deal has to be right for both parties doesn’t he you can’t just ask for the world and hope that Liverpool get it cuz he’s a superstar cuz it doesn’t work like that would you push he is different yes we know he’s different he scores lots of goals and he’s never misses a game if the clubs you know if Liverpool say no at that age we only give two twoyear contracts out Max let’s say would you bend the rules slightly for someone like that if you were so I think so you got to what you mean Micha if you the club you the yeah yeah I mean unfortunately we don’t know what what the contract offers are are we and that’s that that’s what we’re always speculating all the time but of course someone who of his of his ilk you know he looks after himself he’s got a great disposition he’s very rarely injured uh he doesn’t seem to be slowing down you know two years with an option of a third is not is not a problem is it you would have thought but again I don’t know what his agent wants I don’t know what Mo wants I don’t know whether it’s Financial I don’t know whether he wants a huge pay rise on what he’s on what he’s got now which is a lot of money so you have to be able to justify everything whether it’s you know whether it’s wages whether it’s length of contracts you have to be able to justify it to everybody else because you’re might you might come up short if someone getss a bad injury you never know and he’s not 33 till next summer well we’ll watch that space thank you very much indeed M moala on the score sheet against Manchester City again in this Victory uh today as long as Manchester City have gone now seven games understandably Pep Guardiola hasn’t really answered that question and perhaps you wouldn’t expect him to as the Manchester City qu uh manager but Joe Hart is going to ask answer that question 11 points so it’s only happened three times in premier league history more than that the teams come back to win the league can they win it from here I tell you what I was squirming when he was asking that question there it’s just uncomfortable he’s never ever going to climb down is he he’s he can’t stand there and say no I think no the manager can’t but our pundit can so what do you want me to say I want you to believe in this team can they win the league from 11 points behind Liverpool from here technically I’ll answer your question of course they can they can romp it cuz there’s plenty of games to go but look I’m I’m being completely realistic that was impressive today really impressive from Liverpool top of the league 11 points clear hard to see a gap you know we talk about injuries but I didn’t I saw injuries in a Liverpool team today I thought they were brilliant absolutely brilliant the players that came in and replaced them they’ve got boys to come back in it’s going to be such the hardest task possible but of course they’re capable I I know they’re capable we all we all know they’re capable but something needs to happen really quickly col you’ve played for both what what do you think can City catch them or indeed is it more about Liverpool not really having a in their armor to lose that deficit we know the Premier League the Premier League is a is a league where anything can happen and I think that um Liverpool are do dominating right now but there’s moment where they’re going to maybe not lose every uh win every game and uh we know that in the Premier League it can go very quickly you lose one game and then you can lose another one like city is doing right now and I think for me is they in really good run they have to keep doing what they’re doing but uh don’t U don’t think it’s done right now and City always been being a time and they came back and I still think that um uh the point are still there we we are a long way from the end of the season anything can happen in this league Liverpool will drop 11 points or more I’m certain of that between now and the end of the season I just don’t think Manchester City are capable right now of of of of winning too many games on the spin I I think so I think Arsenal are Liverpool’s biggest dangers now um they’ve got a lot of injuries Man City they lacking confidence do you know what I think the points total could actually even extend before it starts reducing you know the way Liverpool are playing at the moment the way man city are play who I mean Liverpool are going to continue winning the way they’re play playing and City are going to continue dropping points the way they’re playing at the moment so I would say the favorite is it’s going to be 13 then 14 then 15 points maybe in the next few weeks it’s entirely possible um and as I say I think just you know if Man City were playing well at the moment I’d say yeah they can catch them but Liverpool are playing so well and Man City are playing so badly that I can see that as I say I can see the Gap growing of anything in the next few weeks do well to argue with that I really would but that’s the thing cuz they’ve not just lost to Liverpool having a having a great game today you know they lost at Bournemouth they lost to Brighton they’ve lost to teams that supposedly they walk out and they and they roll over and now they’re going to go playing forest next week they get the teams that invincibility stood there in the tunnel thinking you know we’ve all experienced that we’ve played against teams that been stood next to us thinking i’ take a 2-0 and get get out of here today that’s what people have felt against Manchester City in recent years I don’t think they’re going to be feeling that next week in in in the Nottingham Forest Tel they’re going to be thinking how can we get these players we can get a result here but Liverpool on the other hand their opposition they’ll be stood there thinking if we get away with a good 2-nil loss here then we’ve done all right you’ve played for Pep we we’ve said it’s Uncharted Territory he’s never been in this situation in his managerial career but if anyone can come back from it surely the greatest we’ve seen in the Premier League era can unfortunately I haven’t play I played under him but uh I think he’s U he’s a winner he’s been U he’s been in club who used to win and he will never give up he will keep pushing the players he keep believe that they can come back and I think for me they’re still putting the performance they’ve been really really unlucky at time and I think that um they have to defend better especially on the transition and uh I think they they will find a way to win a game definitely and Forest is a big big game for me for for City because if you they win that the M ality change again because we’ve been a player when you’re losing the game like I said before you lose confidence but as soon as you win Confident come back again it doesn’t matter which game it can be like a game you play against a team that are not a top team and then you just have the belief and then you you start winning games and the belief come and you keep going you keep going until the end of the season that can happen have we seen that with your other former Club arsal in the last couple of weeks the way it’s switched in the last seven days for instance absolutely exactly and I think that’s um that’s that’s football and we never know what happened but for me I always think confidence is massive for players you could see City two three months ago everybody was thinking City win every game no problem but now we could see from losing one game second game third game now they’re in they in tough situation and that can happen to any other team is football is something special what was not nice as we saw pep guardo’s personality coming out that he talked about it there when we were right by him and they were saying you’re going to get sacked in the morning he was reminding the Liverpool fans of exactly how many Premier League titles he’s won hey look he’s got to stand up for himself to be in the position that he’s in he’s got to believe in himself he’s got to have confidence and he’s not lying is he you know this you got to smell blood and anfield was on it today and look you have to defend yourself you have to defend yourself as a Manchester City manager as a Manchester City player cuz they got beat fair and square today but he needs to send a message out we are winners we have won before and we will win again and in terms of the way that atmosphere went we heard on a slot there saying I hadn’t heard that as Liverpool manager until today it had that extra something didn’t it this ground today it did yeah I mean this place Rises it rises on European nights it rises in the big Premier League games that that matter um it’s a great play place to play football full stop but there’s something special about it on a special um on a special night and who drives who you know is it the players well they started really quick and then the crowd you know or is it the other way around there’s a great atmosphere and it Spurs the players into but I think it takes two to tango and I think both players and fans have got a special bond around here always have done and uh and Liverpool started really quickly today and uh and they never looked back it was unbel and I think Arnie slot probably that’s the first time he’s really experienced something whereby he thought you know what you could sense that by his body language when he spoke what a club I’m managing almost blown over by it was he knew it he he knew it when he signed here but I think he knows now that this place they can almost be unbeatable when when the team are at it when the fans are at it there’s something special around here well as weeks ago to beat the European Champions and the champions of England without conceding a goal I mean in terms of injection of belief doesn’t come any bigger than that incredible incredible Manchester City Real Madrid probably the two best teams in Europe over the last 10 years um and Liverpool of of beaten them both and comfortably Michael Colo Joe thank you very much indeed for your company all day here today we’ve enjoyed it we hope you have as well Match Day Live on the road for you at the biggest fixture and it was a big and significant win again for anest slot and Liverpool from the four of us we’ll see you soon we will get to Liverpool in a second 11 points clear of Manchester City we’ll get to M Sal’s future in a second but let’s start with City and with pep guarda he was some I think remarkably I almost want to say cheer for upbeat afterwards is it almost like the pressure’s off now Owen things we can’t win the league now so let’s not obsess about it we’re 11 behind Liverpool and some of that pressure has been lifted what what what do you read into the way he’s behaving I don’t know we’ve never seen this have we never never seen it from Pep Barca Bayern Manchester City so it is I mean you never see that graphic there by the way you know one draw what is it six losses in the in the last seven results I mean remarkable really they look down and out but I wouldn’t count them out of it just because of of the league you wouldn’t count them out of it not really no I know it looks very unlikely but they’re going to have to find a way to strengthen in January obviously no rodri Kevin De Bry has barely played dropping Edison the spine of the team is gone the injuries that they’ve had at the back of the pitch he needs two Central Midfield players and then I think he can think maybe can we make a run I mean it looks unlikely but I do believe pep will figured this out he’s he’s too great not too that Midfield that he has right now is not a is not a is not a pet Midfield Bernardo Silva hasn’t scored a League goal this since January I mean who’s just been absolutely fantastic who’s in form the question is when you look at the Man City players who’s actually playing well who’s in form and it reminds me when Liverpool when the likes of Henderson and fabinho and their legs fell off a cliff overnight it’s starting to look like that’s happened to a few of the Man City players you know it’s it’s remarkable really cuz if you think yourself you want to try and get in a room with pep he’s normally the best Problem Solver ever and he can figure things out he’s got a plan at the minute I think he’s banging his head against a brick wall thinking actually what can I do I’m looking at the group of players he’s making decisions like changing the goalkeeper he’s trying to smell something that’s probably not there in terms of Edison and Ortega um he’s probably looking at the lack of legs in Midfield he’s probably thinking well dhu is not match fit um Savino is not match fit um there’s no real energy gundan looked good in terms of when he came on a free signing from bar the summer so you thought another body another experienced one good signing but his legs have gone on Bernardo Silva you mentioned he’s not getting around the pitch he never really could he had a good football brain but he’s not affecting games anymore so this smacks of a rebuild to me and I think that’s why probably you saw pep a little bit cheerful because I think the pressure is off you know you’re looking at the Man City side now you think how can they mount a challenge how can they be 11 points behind in the form that they’re in the best version of Man City could but this is nowhere near the best version of you think there’s anything else tactically systematically he could have done today looking at that Guardiola or given his injuries as Don said did he not actually have really any options particularly well I think Don makes a good point I think he’s perhaps the mass kind of finding things but I think he’s trying to find something always play Matas nun as as almost as a left Winger that doesn’t really work he’s a central Midfield player and I think when you looked at that team remarkably harand was the only player that scored a goal this season but that is extraordinary that is one of the most amazing STS I’ve heard this season so basically if you look at the starting 11 you’d say well he’s the only one that’s going to get a goal play to Bo I don’t know why he’s playing he’s been on the bench you know play dku play play sininho do you know there there are players that will create you might lose the game but they’ll give give you a better chance of winning the game I do think confidence is a massive thing in sport any sport football especially even these guys as good as they’ve been their confidence taking a huge hit and it’s really hard to to fight back when you’ve when it’s taken a confidence and they’re actually they don’t look like they’ve been able to address it and they’ve gone to the well so many times haven’t they by winning titles Tres we everybody no one ever won four titles in a row before in England a treble first time ever and they won a treble you know amongst those four as it’s just it’s just coming to a point it reminds me the co year when Liverpool won the league and they’re 11 points behind at the minute in that season they went 25 points behind Man City then they had to have a rebuild so it looks like this summer they’re going to need some serious bodies I think the the sale of Alvarez was a very strange one to me because you’re more or less saying to earen Harland you’re going to have to play every single Premier League game you’re gonna have to play more more or less every single Champions League game and you’re going to have to play a lot of minutes without getting injured and without being out of form because it’s it’s crazy what they’ve done and maybe pep was a little bit too loyal maybe the rebuild should have happened in the summer or when they were strong when they won the treble maybe but maybe he was a little bit too loyal and maybe looked at the group of players he likes them and he fancies them and he loves them but maybe maybe the club thought pep so great he can he’ll figure this out regardless even though we lost a he figured out but actually now I’m sure he’ll be saying to the club guys I need a couple bodes in January I I need two players that can help us turn this around I did quite like the six I mean why shouldn’t to be fair like it was antagonistic fans obviously g a bit of stick any went yes it’s your day we’ won six you you know what the great thing was he took it from the Liverpool fans really well when they said you’re going to get sacked in the morning there was a little smile on his face he knows but I don’t think this was a six of like arrogance no no it wasn’t it was playful you know exactly we we know it’s your day but you know I’ve been doing pretty well of Wade by the way I don’t think he is getting sacked in the morning or or Tuesday morning or W or anytime soon right Liverpool what a position to be in here we go this is where the Liverpool fans were getting him stick he had this sort of playful smile on his face all day he thinks about it didn’t he y your day count them I need two hands to count all these titles I mean to be honest even from the Liverpool fans there’s so much respect for Monday of course is because it’s not often you get one up on pep no so to be able to sing that song to him is obviously and I think pep even probably doesn’t mind it in a weird way CU he knows they’ve had the upper hand most of the time list no one write out for the Champions League Of course right what about Liverpool then I mean this is a position they could not dream of brilliant they’re just so good they’re brilliant confidence flying high Trent just whips one in behind aangi any chance you can get to Mo Salah and get outside the box and not let him in on his left foot that’s ridiculous it’s just ridiculous you got to tackle you got to engage the best players in the world but I tell you what the ball from Mo Salah is outrageous and Anna slot says if Mo salah’s got the ball gak for the back post you got to be there and he’s there it’s that sort of corridor of uncertainty isn’t it put it in there it’s so hard to defend against but a ki’s got to stop Mo on his left he cannot cross it with you know the worst thing you can have as a footballer doubt it’s the worst thing that can happen normally if you’re a Ki when they’re playing well he Sprints out there and he engages he gets tight and he gets one V one and he sends him on his right foot you can see a few Man City Boys at the minute because confidence is a thing you can’t measure but loads of dat in the game and you can measure measure xgs you can measure everything players confidence you can never measure and when you’ve got doubt as a that’s the worst thing you can have cuz you actually you actually take another make a decision than doing second guess it you think oh I know what I should do but I’ll get myself goal Side by then it’s too late I won’t get tight and then Salah seen the pitch and he puts it in that’s the worst thing you can have as a player well then Salah missed a great chance to make it 2-0 then Liverpool get a penalty there’s no doubt about the penalty but actually it does sum up man City’s performance doesn’t it because there’s just a catalog of mistakes done I can you start it poor header Ruben midweek that’s a disaster what he doing there Carl walk is a bit sort of that’s bad touch yeah yeah and then and then the goalkeeper I mean how many mistakes do you want to see in one four we counted didn’t we four in quick succession that go sums up Manchester City season that exactly that can I just say from L Diaz as well he played like firmino did as a false nine today I thought his touch was good he was sharp I mean forino never had the sort of trickery in the legs of uh Lis Diaz but he played the position really well but that goal probably sum’s Man City season up or the last month and a half as you always say when when you make a mistake don’t exacerbate about by your teammate making another mistake Salah scores and we weren’t absolutely convinced on were we after he shank that one wide against Real Madrid fair play for coming back yes Tak no doubt there do you know the takeaway though I’ve had from Liverpool especially from the Real Madrid game and the game today it was like watching two different managers in the same 90 minutes so when Liverpool had the ball against Real Madrid it wasn’t 30 yard expansive passes it was five yards it was low risk Tempo was good when they didn’t have the ball it was like watching a CL 11 where they smothered Real Madrid and trampled all over them they’ve done that to city for the first half an hour I mean how City Come Away only losing two Nils in mystery cuz it could have been five or six um what about the most Salah interview he’s not exactly hiding his desires or well you not notary intentions but his salary demands is he he’s basically sitting there with four races is he yeah he is but why but but why should he it’s the club’s fault for letting it get to this point of course he’s got all the cards look at the goals and assists absolute flying he can talk it’s the first December today he can talk to a foreign Club in a month’s time I like the fact he’s actually embracing it you know he’s actually getting out and talking about it and obviously it makes it really difficult for Richard Hughes that you can’t lose moal on a free do you know you you just do you know what You’ want say do you know what you’d want to say to Liverpool’s owners FSG Richard Hugh and sporting directors what on Earth are you waiting for Liverpool will never be Flawless in the Champions League now the’re Flawless sitting top the’re top of the Premier League by 11 points what are you waiting for the statement would be I know what they want apparently what they want is Van dijk done first before mosal that’s apparently the the order that they’ve got them lined up in I think they’re pretty M much accepting that Trent and want to go to Real Madrid and offer something different he’s been there about 17 years he might fancy a change but if you’re Liverpool what are you waiting for because imagine the statement if there was a piter with Mo Salalah and Virgil Van Dyk sitting there pen and paper new contracts I mean it’s a great position win the Premier League what youpo and he’s the fittest what is he 32 he’s Salah yeah 32 he’s the fittest 32y old I don’t know what you think but I I’ve I’ve always said this season I’ll stand by if you got the three players lined up and there’s an order to put them in I think it’s van dijk first because of the leader that he is yeah there’s there’s a there’s a term in NFL it’s called Force multiplier and what that means is the knock on effect that Virg vanak has on everyone else no coinc that graber’s playing well no Quin that canate alongsid played well Joe Gomez today he he improves all the players I’m sure there’s enough money in lawyers and sporting directors we can do it at the same time do Mo and Van DJ at the same time I mean there are enough of them but what you waiting for get them done lied edag [Applause] go [Music] [Applause] wow wow wow [Applause] wowow go [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] go for
