Jurgen Klopp's men set a new record margin of victory in the clash between English football's two most successful clubs. Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah all scored twice as Liverpool shrugged off a season of frustration to thrash Manchester United 7-0 at Anfield.
The German coach spoke about his feelings after the match at a press conference: "Freak result, top performance. A really top performance from the start, I thought the way we started the game was really special, the best for a long time. We were there, we were aggressive but we played football.
"I think nobody was in doubt about Darwin’s future impact when he settles because he is a real force of nature, Cody plays in the most difficult area of the pitch against a man-marking side which is super-tricky, but how he keeps himself on his feet there and has the overview of everybody else, Mo is Mo, midfielders around," he added.
"I know we can play good football and I know that we can play better football than we showed a couple of times this season, of course. But there was always a reason why we didn’t do it, as you can imagine it’s not that we don’t want it.
"When you lost the game before you want to be the best version of yourself immediately again. The main difference is we have now pretty much all the players available, which is super-helpful," Klopp concluded.
