"I just thought because he's played Salah in every game, the game that he leaves Salah out in, I thought would be a risk because it tells the rest of the players something. "We had it in the Champions League final, where we had two subs come off the bench and win it for us. "It's the first time Jurgen Klopp's left Mo Salah out in what feels like an absolute age, but he must have felt that was a game that he could leave him out in. And so to keep them included to make them feel part of it, get them on the pitch if you can, even it's for 10 or 15 minutes at the end. Liverpool did very well to come back in and then there were hugs at the end and it's a very pleasant, respectful run-in.

Manchester City returned to the top of the Premier League with a crucial 4-0 victory against Leeds United at Elland Road on Saturday evening.
Whilst there was a stark contrast in the quality possessed by the two sides at Elland Road, City took their chances and were efficient from set-pieces, and with De Bruyne and Mahrez set to come back into the side against Madrid on Wednesday, City could benefit from a different goalscoring avenue.

It meant City moved back above Liverpool to the Premier League summit with just four games remaining and have now kept five successive clean sheets on the road in the English top flight, our best run in the competition to date. Gabriel Jesus added a third with his sixth goal in the space of a week, before Fernandinho marked his 260th Premier League appearance – a new record for a Brazilian – with a thunderous late strike. He said: “It was a great way for the lads to celebrate, it was nice to win it and get the trophy on home soil rather than being away, so it's been a great day for us. City had already sealed successive PL2 titles following a 3-1 win at Leeds in our penultimate match of the season but rounded off the campaign with an emphatic display.
