gets up in the morning, he relishes that, he wants to defend, and I like defenders who want to defend, and I can sound a bit mad, but I think we've seen, maybe the game's evolved a little bit, where defenders are more happy to be kind of a bit more front foot, and doing maybe some of the more fancier things, this looks like a lad who just enjoys the art of a tackle, getting in, covering his other centre half as he was on Friday night, because obviously he's playing full back, and he's tucking in and stuff, doing that kind of dirty work,

I thought he was great.

Listen, game state helps.

Game state does help when you're two up and you're not having to rely on your full-backs to maybe offer as much threat.

But also, Liverpool have been setting up and a lot was made in the first game against Newcastle where they are ever so offensive.

I'm absolutely fine with lots of games.

Liverpool have almost three centre-halves in the team.

I think going into Friday night, what would have happened?

There would have been an absolute big bullseye on Frimpong's back, given what you'd seen in the first two games.

But he's got totally different attributes, as we know.

And he won't be bullied.

He won't be dominated.

It's actually quite interesting that he looks maybe slightly better on the ball than I first thought he might.

I had not clocked loads of him at Barcelona.

But I said to Phil on Friday on the pre-match warm-up, loads of the stuff the Anfield Rap did in the build-up to him joining.

A lot of people were coming on and saying, well, he's not great on the ball, you know.

And it was that famous kind of PSG kind of clip where Luis Enrique's talking about, you know, let him have the ball, he'll give it to you.

But he's looked all right on the ball, I think, so far.

And maybe that'll change over, you know, the course of time and people are putting him under slightly
