That was unbelievable. Far and away Liverpool’s best display under Klopp. We’ve attacked better, yet scored three. There hasn’t been a better defensive display under the German. One foot into the semi-finals, surely? Score one at their place and they have to score five. Not rocket science is it, lads? Anyway, here’s me on player ratings...

Man Utd 2-1 Liverpool: Craig Pawson Inspires Utd Win As Controversy Rules All

But how did the Liverpool players rate? Simon Mignolet – 6/10: Decent enough performance from...
