On Sky Sports, he stated: “Liverpool are the real winners of today, obviously winning and watching these two teams draw.
“Liverpool will be delighted.
“You’re looking at the table now and thinking Liverpool will be favourites for it, but with the amount of quality on the pitch that is why we’re disappointed [with the Man City/Arsenal game].”
