Liverpool are confident in their team’s abilities, despite claims that Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland have rendered Manchester City defenseless.

This season, substitutes Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Cody Gakpo have all scored crucial goals; however, it was substitute Harvey Elliott, who came on at halftime, who changed the game on Saturday with two game-winning assists.Elliott has made 25 starts for Liverpool in the Premier League and 35 more as a substitute. Although the current ratio isn’t ideal, captain Virgil van Dijk has emphasized that every player must do their part if Liverpool are to win the Premier League title and send Jurgen Klopp packing.
“At the highest level you have to be patient and grab your moments when you get them,” Van Dijk said, adding that he could almost feel Harvey’s desire to play every week.He must proceed. Failure to start is a normal aspect of running a business, so try not to get too worked up about it. In this instance, Harvey has shown that he can make the most of his opportunity. This is just the latest example of how our substitutes have significantly improved our performance this season. That ought to also be the case moving ahead.Klopp was noticeably more enthusiastic than normal from the sidelines, despite Burnley appearing to be an easy fixture on paper. Fоllоwing the lаte withdrаwаls оf аlissоn аnd Jоe Gоmez due tо flu, Liverpооl’s lineup felt even mоre pаtchwоrk thаn befоre. Injuries tо Sаlаh, Jоel Mаtip, аnd Dоminik Szоbоszlаi, аs well аs suspensiоns fоr Ibrаhimа Kоnаte аnd Cоnоr Brаdley due tо his fаther’s deаth, further аdded tо this impressiоn.

Elliott was named the game’s most valuable player after just 45 minutes. He was a spark plug on the right wing, setting up goals for Diaz and Nunez with crosses that kept Liverpool two points clear of the pack. With the opening of the upper tier of the Anfield Road Stand, 59,896 spectators enjoyed the fantastic theatre, surpassing the previous record set in 1949. “Absolutely fantastic,” was Klopp’s description. ‘At the appropriate times, it was incredibly loud.’That vibe may be a twelfth man, since City hasn’t been to Anfield yet this season. It is a group that has a lot of tradition and devotion to the club, Burnley manager Vincent Kompany said. That’s never easy. Both managers were sent off for their managers’ protests throughout the game; Klopp for his claims that Jota should have received a penalty, and Kompany for his claims that Aaron Ramsey had been fouled in the buildup to Liverpool’s second goal. When Salah and Bradley return to training next week, Andy Robertson makes his first appearance since October, Kostas Tsimikas comes off the bench, and Liverpool is expected to become even stronger, especially if Alexander-Arnold’s problem is as minor as feared. The bench strength of City is lauded, as De Bruyne and Jack Grealish came off the bench over the weekend, but Liverpool does not suffer from an inferiority complex. Additionally, Van Dijk mentioned that he was impressed by the players that had recently joined the team. “The guys are grabbing their moments, which is important.” Things don’t improve for Burnley, who are currently in last place, no matter how hard they try. Arsenal will be their next opponent.
