Federico Chiesa can be finally unleashed at Liverpool as Arne Slot gets what he called for
Theo Squires analysis after a much-changed Liverpool lose 3-2 at PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League
It had been 126 days since Federico Chiesa last started for Liverpool. The Italian registered an assist on his full Reds debut against West Ham United back on September 25, but that remained his last involvement for Arne Slot’s side for three months because of injury and illness before his return to action last month.
Liverpool have had to be patient with Chiesa, with it proving to be a frustratingly slow process for supporters to see the Reds’ solitary summer signing in action. But now the club’s careful treatment is paying off.
With 12 senior players left at home for the final Champions League league game away at PSV Eindhoven, the forward was always well placed to make only his second Liverpool start.
And as was the case against the Hammers back in September, he was again involved for the Reds on the goalscoring front. It was Chiesa who was brought down by Joey Veerman, gifting Cody Gakpo the chance to open the scoring against his former club from the penalty spot.
And it was Chiesa’s thunderous strike saved by Walter Benitez that presented Harvey Elliott with a simple tap-in to score the rebound and put Liverpool back in front..
One of the game’s liveliest performers, the former Juventus star continued his recent trend since coming back into the side last month. He is dangerous in front of goal, with his tricky feet and venomous strike already becoming a familiar sight in his limited outings so far.
Chiesa is making a growing impact when selected. Opening his account against Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup, he played a part in both goals in the 2-0 win over Brentford before doing so again against PSV.
Alas, this time Chiesa was on the losing side for the first time in his Reds career as they fell to a 3-2 defeat. But as Slot said pre-match, the result hardly mattered with Liverpool already guaranteed a top-two finish.
Instead, it was an opportunity for the likes of Chiesa to get some well-needed minutes and stake their claim. A full 90 minutes for the Italy international, who started on the right-wing before later switching to the left, was a welcome sight as he continued to show what he is capable of.
His two shots on target, both pushed away by Benitez, and three successful dribbles were the most completed by any player at the Philips Stadion. He also completed the most successful tackles (four) too, demonstrating a willingness to press and win back possession.
You won’t expect him to realistically stand a chance of taking Mohamed Salah’s place in Slot’s starting XI this season. But after months in the stands and weeks on the bench, Chiesa is now a genuine option for Slot and Liverpool.
Elliott stakes his claim after Slot challenge
Elliott will have been the only Liverpool player disappointed to see them awarded a penalty against PSV. As referee Tobias Stieler blew his whistle and pointed to the spot, the midfielder was in the process of finding the bottom corner with a fierce strike from the edge of the box.
Goalkeeper Benitez can argue he had stopped in response to the whistle, but he would have struggled to keep out the strike regardless.
Elliott did not have to wait long to get on the scoresheet, though, reacting quickest to convert the rebound from Chiesa’s strike 12 minutes later to make it goals in back-to-back Champions League matches.
The 21-year-old now has two goals and an assist from his last four appearances. Making only his third start of the campaign, like with Chiesa, this was a vital 90 minutes under his belt. And coming in his favoured number 10 position made it all the more important.
When asked what Elliott needed to do to start more often last week, Slot replied he needed to ‘keep bringing performances’. Against PSV, in the absence of both Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai, he did exactly that.
Yes, the result will grind – even considering the shadow squad. But Slot’s selections against PSV were not about facing the Dutch outfit – rather the bigger fish left to fry.
And Elliott has again proven why his impact will surely continue to grow during the second half of the season.
Mixed night for the kids
With 12 senior players left at home, Slot was always going to turn to the Academy at PSV. And in truth, it was a mixed bag for Liverpool’s young stars.
James McConnell excelled in midfield, selected to start ahead of Tyler Morton. With his fellow midfielder hinting at a January exit earlier this month, McConnell is more than capable of filling the void. Should he not depart on loan himself, it will be no surprise if he has instead played himself into contention for a place in Slot’s squad for the second half of the season.
Jayden Danns is another who could still leave on loan before Monday’s transfer deadline. Handed his full Liverpool debut, the striker became the youngest player to make his first start for Liverpool in a Champions League game, beating Martin Kelly’s record after the defender made his debut against Olympique Lyonnais in October 2009.

In truth, it was a difficult night for the 19-year-old. Kicked throughout, he failed to record a shot on target before being withdrawn in the 83rd minute.
Trey Nyoni came off the bench to break Phil Charnock’s record and become the club’s youngest-ever player in European competition at 17 years and 213 days.
Meanwhile, centre-back Amara Nallo can perhaps feel hard done by after his Liverpool debut was ended after less than three minutes as he was dismissed for denial of a goalscoring opportunity. Becoming the youngest player to ever be sent off for the Reds, he will no doubt have mixed feelings on what should have been a night to remember.
The last time the Reds travelled to PSV, they won 3-1 in December 2008 to top their Champions League group as Rafa Benitez named a much-changed side. In amongst the changes, academy youngsters Kelly and Jay Spearing both made their debuts for the club off the bench.
The pair would go on to make 62 and 55 appearances for the club, and were League Cup winners in 2012, before their careers took soon them elsewhere.
These maiden Champions League outings were a big step for each of the latest academy starlets, but they are not the finished articles yet.
With Spearing now a well-established player-academy coach at Kirkby, they have the perfect role model and reminder of the hard work that still needs to be done as they continue the formative stages of their Liverpool journeys.

Arne Slot handed triple injury boost as midfielder returns – 3 things spotted in Liverpool training
Liverpool has been training ahead of facing Everton in the Merseyside derby. Arne Slot will offer a full injury update in his pre-game press conference on Tuesday.
After what has felt like an age, Liverpool will be back in Premier League action in just a couple of days. Three and a half weeks after beating Southampton at Anfield, the Reds will host Everton.
Five wins and a draw is the maximum that Liverpool needs from its final nine games of the campaign to get over the line in the title race, with Arsenal currently 12 points behind. It’s not done yet, but it is edging closer.
Here’s what we spotted in the Liverpool training session that Arne Slot oversaw in Kirkby. One midfielder made a return, while another couple of players were in training having sat out games for their countries during the international break.
Ryan Gravenberch and Alisson boost as Tyler Morton returns
As expected, Liverpool duo Ryan Gravenberch and Alisson Becker were both involved in today’s training session. The former returned home early from international duty with a knock while the latter picked up a head injury in Brazil’s first game and then sat out its second because of concussion protocols.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Conor Bradley both remain out while Joe Gomez was spotted training alone. None are back in team training yet, meaning that Jarell Quansah is likely to be the man deployed at right-back, as he did against Newcastle United at Wembley last time out.
Having been out with a shoulder injury, Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton was spotted taking part in the session with his teammates. While a move away would make sense in the summer, he will hope to make another appearance before then.
Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa out to impress
With Liverpool edging closer to securing the Premier League title, there should be a chance for some fringe players to get a chance before the campaign ends. Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa, were all smiles here and the pair will be hoping to show what they can do in games — not just in training — in the next couple of months.
Neither has played as often as they would have liked under Slot so far. With free midweeks between games (after the derby), they will get opportunities in training to catch the eye. What they produce could be instructive come the summer when big transfer decisions lie ahead.
Liverpool all smiles inside and out.
After some indoor work, the Liverpool players headed out onto the grass. Strength and conditioning is important, of course, but the session looked much more fun and enjoyable with the balls out.
Ibrahima Konate and Andy Robertson shared a joke while Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah looked relaxed amid the wait for news on their contracts. Slot was happy to be back with his players, too, with the Reds boss keeping a close eye on the session.
After facing Everton on Wednesday, Liverpool will then take on Fulham at Craven Cottage at the weekend. Arsenal plays both of those teams this week as well, with the Gunners holding very faint hopes of catching up before the campaign ends.

Everton and Liverpool could do business for the first time since 2002 with player linked with summer move
Everton and Liverpool could do business for the first time in 23 years with David Moyes reportedly interested in one of Arne Slot’s players.
It is well documented that Everton and Liverpool are bitter rivals, with the two clubs’ stadiums separated by less than a mile.
The last player to do so was back in 2002 when Abel Xavier left the Toffees for Liverpool in a deal worth a reported fee of around £800,000.
Meanwhile, the last player to leave Liverpool for Everton was back in 1992, when Gary Ablett switched sides.
Looking ahead to the summer transfer window, it has been claimed that Everton manager Moyes is showing interest in one of Liverpool’s young stars.
Everton boss David Moyes eyes shock move for Liverpool youngster
As reported by The Scottish Sun, Moyes is eyeing a move for Liverpool winger Ben Doak, who has impressed this season while on loan at Championship side Middlesbrough.
It has been suggested that Doak could be available for a transfer if an offer of around £25 million was made.
Aside from Everton, the likes of Bournemouth and Crystal Palace have also been linked with the 19-year-old.
Doak has been linked with a permanent move away from Liverpool as his game time at Anfield has so far been limited.
The Scotsman faces the almost impossible task of trying to displace the likes of Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota in the Liverpool attack.
Speaking about Doak back in January, Boro boss and former Manchester United star Michael Carrick said: “He’s got that weapon and unique threat.
“The way he plays the game, everyone has their own strengths, but the way Ben plays the game, he’s always in the game and always a threat.”
So far in the 24/25 season, the youngster has registered three goals and seven assists in 24 appearances for Boro in the second tier.
Doak has been out of action since the start of the year after suffering a thigh injury.

Exclusive: £41m centre-back is READY to join Liverpool
Anfield Watch has been told that there is a player ready to join Liverpool in the future.
The Reds will be in the market for a centre-back this summer and one player who has been heavily linked with a £41m move to Anfield is Konstantinos Koulierakis.
The Greek international has caught the eye in the Bundesliga this season and has also done very well on the international stage with the senior national team.
Liverpool scouts have been following his progress since he burst onto the scene at PAOK as a teenager and it’s entirely possible that the Reds will decide to make a move for him this summer.
The first think I note was that he played every game with passion.
How highly rated was he in the PAOK academy?
At the first year was at the three top talents in his age group. From the moment he moved in the U17 and changed his position, he has been unstoppable up until now.
Where does he rank in terms of the players you have coaches so far?
I feel proud about that from that U17 group three players are valuable players of the National team of Greece, Konstantinos,Tzolis and Konstantelias. Generally Konstantinos belongs at the three top talents I have ever coached.
What kind of guy was he? Friendly?
Konstantinos is the personality with family principles. He respects everyone around him. He remains humble with confidence.
What stood out about him on the pitch?
First of all defensively he has great concentration and he is aggressive. He loves to move the defence line up on the field.
Offensively, his long pass and the vertical game are the strong points. One of the strongest characteristics is that he is not impacted by making a wrong decision, he continues with confidence.
What were the qualities about him that you liked?
I liked the way he could change the game, that happened more times in u17 when I changed his position to central defender.
In the beginning he was confused because it was the first time for him to play central defender but I tried to explain to him that his characteristics are valuable if he will play in that position.
What are his best assets?
His left foot, 1vs1 defending, confidence.
What did you work on with him in the training ground?
We tried to create and improve some skills on his profile for left central defender, some specific skills for the central defender. It was a new position, defender body profile, direction control of the ball, drives, long passes, vertical passes in pockets, evaluating the danger in the penalty area, collaboration of the defending line – this kind of stuff.
What kind of character is he in the dressing room?
As i said before, he respects everyone, players and staff, generally the club he belongs, he is playing and fight first of all for his team and after that for himself.
Why did you decide to change his position from midfielder to defender?
I observed his left foot, his long pass, the vertical game, his ability to change the game, his aggressiveness. I had it in my mind that the club will need a left central defender more than a holding midfielder with these skills.
My worry was if i could inspire him on that. I trusted him from the start of the season, he was younger than the others, I saw that he was trying very hard. In my reports I remember writing that he was a top talent.
What is he like in the air?
He scored many goals the last season, every season he scored goals, he can score by long shots and headings. On the defending aerial duels, he use his body and evaluates his timing for a heading very well.
Have you been surprised by how well he has done in Germany?
I am not surprised by Konstantinos. I am expecting more from him in the future
Do you think he is ready to play in the Premier League one day?
In this case there is no answer, I think many reasons can be affect the career of one footballer, for now his pathway is very promising. His skills for central defender belongs in top level.
He has been linked with a move to Liverpool, is he ready for a step like that?
The end of the last summer he moved to Germany, in a very competitive Championship, his feedback on that is positive, as I explained a lot of circumstances can be different between two countries but one quality player with self confidence and hardworking [like Koulierakis] can play in every championship.
What do you think is his ceiling? How far can he go?
I have full belief that he will continue to make the people around him proud.
Do you have a favourite memory of him?
When I meet Konstantinos, he is smiling happy… that is enough.
At Liverpool does he have the potential to replace Van Dijk? Do you see similarities between the two of them?
They have different characteristics, Konstantinos is left footed with vertical play, Van Dijk is unbeaten in aerial duels, Van Dijk is 12 years older than Konstantinos, he is more experienced, the only similarity from my side is the leadership and that their pathway started with an upward trend from the young age.

Liverpool fans stunned as David Ornstein drops bombshell about FSG’s next move
Liverpool fans have been left shocked after it has been revealed that club owners FSG are interested in buying Spanish club Malaga.
If they are successful, the Spanish third division side would become the fourth sports club the American group own, joining Boston Red Sox, Liverpool Football Club, and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Malaga were relegated from La Liga in 2018 after a decade in the Spanish top division, and matters got worse in 2023 when a 2-1 defeat to Alavés sent them to the third division.
Ornstein confirmed the news of FSG’s interest via X, writing: “Liverpool owners FSG exploring purchase of Spanish club Malaga.
The Athletic journalist also revealed that representatives have already visited the club’s facilities last month, confirming the serious nature of their interest.
He added: “The initial focus to buy majority shareholder Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani’s 51%.
“Delegation visited facilities in Feb to assess potential acquisition for multi-club model.
“FSG is considering and open to all forms of investment, with the priority being to inject a level of finance that enables it to impact the football operation.”

Liverpool ‘would encourage’ specific exit for Anfield ace – his girlfriend is already ‘working with agents’
The future of Darwin Nunez continues to gather a lot of attention.
Liverpool are expected to make a number of changes to their squad this summer, regardless of whether they win the Premier League or not. Several exit rumours have been doing the rounds since the start of the year, and some in particular are looking increasingly likely.
While the majority of the attention has been on Trent Alexander-Arnold this week, Darwin Nunez’s future has also been heavily speculated. Plenty of recent reports have suggested the Uruguayan’s time at Anfield is up, having struggled to live up to the record fee Liverpool forked out in 2022.
Frustrations among fans have been building as a result of Nunez’s often disappointing performances. While he has popped up with some important goals this season, particularly his stoppage time match-winning brace against Brentford, he has struggled to secure a regular staring position under Arne Slot.
Liverpool ‘would encourage’ Darwin Nunez summer sale.
As exit rumours continue to surround Nunez, who remains under contract until 2028, Saudi Arabia have re-emerged on the radar as a potential destination. Pro League have been attempting to sign Liverpool players for years now, with the first batch including Roberto Firmino and Jordan Henderson.
Since then, Mohamed Salah has been the main target, with Virgil van Dijk, Alisson and Nunez cropping up on their interest list as well. Now, according to journalist Duncan Castles, a deal with Saudi Arabia would be something Liverpool are willing to strike.
Speaking on The Transfers Podcast, Castles said: “Liverpool would be happy if the Saudis came in and would encourage a move for Nunez. They would like to get some kind of significant return on the initial £62.5 million that they paid Benfica three years ago.
“From the Saudi perspective, [Nunez] still has that ability to be a name within the Saudi game and to deliver goals with his physicality. Interestingly, I’m told that his girlfriend, Lorena Manas, who is the ex-wife of former Barcelona player Aleix Vidal, has been working with agents to explore opportunities elsewhere. So it looks like this is both sides pushing against the same door with Nunez, or at least Nunez’s partner, encouraging him to look for a move and Liverpool happy to sell the player with a strong, affluent potential buyer in Saudi Arabia.”
Darwin Nunez joked about Saudi Arabia move
Saudi Arabia is a destination made attractive due to the sheer amount of money on offer in the form of both transfer fees and wages. This has now become common knowledge even among the players.
Nunez recently joked about joining a Saudi club during a recent appearance on Pro:Direct Soccer’s ‘Teammates’ segment, alongside Luis Diaz.
While talking about who drives the best car at Liverpool, Diaz commented that Nunez must earn ‘big money’ as he owns multiple cars. The Uruguayan replied that he needs ‘more money’, while winking at the camera before whispering to the host behind his hand ‘come on Saudi’.

What senior Newcastle officials have said privately about selling Alexander Isak to Liverpool
Newcastle United’s stance regarding Alexander Isak is clear amid interest from Liverpool.

The 25-year-old is a top target for Liverpool, who have seen up close just how good he is this season. Alexander Isak has played against the Reds twice in the 2024/25 campaign, scoring two goals.
One of those goals was at Wembley, as Isak helped Newcastle win the Carabao Cup at Liverpool’s expense.
Since then, talk of the Swede leaving St James’ Park has intensified.
Liverpool think they can sign Isak, while he is also attracting interest from the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Barcelona.
Newcastle United’s stance on Alexander Isak leaving this summer
While there is a queue forming, Newcastle United intend to be defiant.
According to the Athletic, senior officials at Newcastle United are all privately in agreement that they would be crazy to sell any of their top players – including Isak.
The Athletic add that Newcastle officials believe Isak is irreplaceable – a stance that Eddie Howe has echoed.
It was reported in October 2024 that Isak is the last player Howe wants to sell, and that belief will only have grown stronger with every goal scored.
Isak has scored 23 goals in 33 games this season – two fewer than last season’s total with 10 games to play.
Newcastle United prepare for contract negotiations with Alexander Isak
While Liverpool appear to be trying to position themselves at the front of the queue for Isak, it is Newcastle United who hold all of the aces.
Newcastle plan to offer Isak a new contract, after talks over an extension collapsed in 2024.
The Magpies will need to push the boat out to tie down the forward, but Geordie Boot Boys have been told that Newcastle will make Isak their highest paid player.
They are prepared to offer him in excess of £160,000-a-week, but that sum may need to reach more than £200,000-a-week for Isak to put pen to paper.
Champions League football will also be pivotal in keeping Isak. Newcastle are in a strong position with 10 games to go, as they aim to qualify for Europe’s elite competition after a year out of the limelight.
Team | MP | W | D | L | GD | Pts | |
4 | 29 | 14 | 7 | 8 | 16 | 49 | |
5 | 29 | 14 | 6 | 9 | 15 | 48 | |
6 | 28 | 14 | 5 | 9 | 9 | 47 | |
7 | 29 | 12 | 11 | 6 | 6 | 47 | |
8 | 29 | 12 | 9 | 8 | 5 | 45 |
Those two factors will help Newcastle keep Isak, and they are both in the club’s control. They will have the opportunity to offer Isak the contract he wants, while Champions League qualification is in their hands.

“Told He Might Never Walk—Now He’s Walking Out at Anfield”
“Told He Might Never Walk—Now He’s Walking Out at Anfield”
Two years ago, we started a TikTok account for Isaac—not just to document his journey but to bring hope and support to other parents navigating life with children like him. Our goal was to raise awareness of Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome and show that joy and progress are possible, even in the face of challenges.
“It’s not every day you get to see your son’s dream come true—it still feels surreal.”
These are the words of Melissa Kearney, whose seven-year-old son, Isaac, captured the hearts of millions after stepping onto the pitch as an LFC mascot. The emotional video of this unforgettable moment quickly went viral, racking up a staggering 122 million views and 12 million social media interactions worldwide.
Melissa recalls how the idea of creating a TikTok account first came about:
“It was a young cousin who suggested we start one—to showcase Isaac’s personality and the joy he brings to our lives.”
A Journey from Fear to Faith
When Isaac was born, Melissa struggled to find the right support network.
“I searched for groups to connect with other parents, but the ones I found were filled with negativity. It became overwhelming, so I stepped away and decided to focus on Isaac’s development instead. As he started hitting milestones, my confidence and positivity grew.”
Isaac, a bright and determined schoolboy from Kirkby, has been living with Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects cognitive and physical development. Yet, against all odds, he walked out onto Anfield with Virgil van Dijk by his side—a moment his family never thought possible.
“We were told he might never walk, so seeing him step onto the pitch was nothing short of a miracle.”
Melissa shares how overwhelming the response has been since their video went global:
Finding Strength in Positivity
Though Melissa still finds it difficult to look back at Isaac’s baby photos—especially the ones from when he suffered seizures—she has learned to embrace their reality.
“Every child with Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome is different. Some use wheelchairs, some are non-verbal, others are more physically able. I used to worry about sending the wrong message, but I realised that hope is the most important message of all.”
“A positive attitude always leads to a better outcome. Isaac is such a character—he’s always smiling, and his happiness is contagious.”
Liverpool Through and Through
Melissa, a phlebotomist at a GP surgery, recalls how Isaac’s love for Liverpool FC started early:
“It began with him watching matches and pre-game build-ups with his dad. Soon, he was asking when the next match was and wanting to visit Anfield. He’d sing along to Liverpool songs, strumming his toy guitar, and he even memorised player stats.”
“Ask him what he had for lunch at school, and he might forget. But ask him who wears number 30 for Liverpool, and he’ll tell you straight away!”
Even at school, his teachers have found ways to use Liverpool FC to help him engage with learning.
Isaac’s father, Alan, who works at Ford’s transmission factory, admits that life wasn’t always this hopeful. But seeing Isaac’s dream come true has changed everything—not just for their family, but for countless others who have found inspiration in his journey.
“We were told there’d be a lot of publicity, but we had no idea how big it was going to be. We’ve had people from Brazil, the Netherlands, the US—all over the world—reaching out and saying how Isaac has put things into perspective for them. Some were going through tough times, but watching Isaac has kept them going. And that’s amazing.”
Since the video went viral, there has been a five-year high in Google searches related to Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, meaning Isaac’s story isn’t just inspiring people—it’s spreading awareness in ways they never imagined.
A Rare Condition, A Remarkable Journey
Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome is an exceptionally rare chromosomal disorder, affecting just 1 in 50,000 babies. It causes varying degrees of developmental delays, low muscle tone, and other challenges. For Isaac, this has meant ongoing physiotherapy and learning support.
But if there’s one thing his story has proven, it’s that hope can turn even the toughest journeys into extraordinary triumphs.

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s agent ‘holds talks’ with shock club over transfer that could see him snub Real Madrid
Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to leave Liverpool this summer.
Trent Alexander-Arnold’s agent reportedly held talks with another club amid his impending move to Real Madrid.
Ever since the 24/25 season began, Alexander-Arnold’s future has been a major talking point as his contract is due to expire at the end of the campaign.
Over the last few months, it was heavily reported that Spanish La Liga giants Madrid have identified Alexander-Arnold as a primary target ahead of the transfer window.
Earlier in the week, it was claimed that a deal to take the Englishman to the Spanish capital is getting ever closer.
However, as reported by Spanish news outlet AS, Alexander-Arnold’s agent also held talks with Madrid’s fierce rivals, Barcelona.
Journalist Sique Rodriguez told SER Catalunya: “There have been meetings, recently and a few years ago, to assess whether Alexander-Arnold could sign for Barca.
“He was already on Barça’s radar with Xavi Hernández and Jordi Cruyff. There was already some meeting to try to address his signing.”
But it seems Barcelona and Alexander-Arnold have not been able to agree to a deal as the 26-year-old is now poised to move to the Bernabeu.
Back in 2020, Alexander-Arnold told GQ that one of his favourite teams is Barcelona.
“My favourite team besides Liverpool? Would be Barca,” he said. “I feel they have kind of the same values and beliefs as Liverpool. “They like to bring players through the academy. I grew up watching Messi and that special Barcelona team with Iniesta, Xavi, Henry Eto’o.”
Reacting to Alexander-Arnold’s potential move to Madrid, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher said on the Stick To Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet: “Where I’m at is that as a local player and a Liverpool fan, Liverpool are in a position where they’re competing for the league and a European Cup every year.
“So, if you’re a Liverpool fan and a local player, I’m just disappointed that he doesn’t think that this is it. I’m putting myself in his position where I’d be thinking that we could go level with Manchester United in league trophies, I’ve got another seven or eight years at Liverpool and want to get three or four ahead of them, with a couple more European Cups.”
