And you would want to pull against them.
You know, they get in your face and they'll stay in your face for 90 minutes.
That's why Liverpool have conceded 15 goals this year of the best defensive record, only been beaten once.
You know, it looks like they're going to have to win every single game now to win this league.
They've got 27 points to play for.
You've got to assume the worst case that the City won't slip up, and if they do, you've got to be ready to take advantage of that.
We can't write them off, of course.
Thank you very much.
It's not new.
Coming here has never been easy.
I can talk from when we were...
the top team, coming here, playing Everton, they would roll their sleeves up, get in our face and want to take us on in a fight, and they would see where that would take them.
That was exactly what happened today.
They made it very difficult physically today for Liverpool, and they were saying, let's see if Liverpool are up for it and can stick with us.
And to be fair to Everton, which I had doubts they could do it for 90 minutes, they managed it for 90 minutes, and ultimately Liverpool never had enough craft to come up with the answer, the answer being a goal or two.
A lot of games this year.
He's made such a difference to them.
You talk about one player doesn't make a difference, but I think when they're that good, he is the exception.
