FC Porto 0-5 Liverpool – Post match discussion with Gerrard, Lampard and Ferdinand

Maxresdefault 4

Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Rio Ferdinand discussed Liverpool’s 5-0 thrashing of FC Porto after Wednesday night’s Champions League round of 16 first leg.

The trio spoke about Mohamed Salah, Jurgen Klopp and a whole host of other issues following Liverpool’s impressive away victory.

A hat-trick from Sadio Mane and one apiece from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino gave Liverpool a crushing 5-0 win.

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand questioned whether Henderson would get in the Liverpool team when Naby Keita arrives from RB Leipzig in the summer.

“Do you think when everyone’s fit and Keita comes in as well, does he get in that team?,” Ferdinand said on BT Sport. “As a captain as well? I think he struggles to get in that team.”

Gerrard says there will be a space for Henderson with the departure of Can.

“Well you’ll have to wait and see what happens because Emre Can’s leaving, obviously Keita’s coming in,” Gerrard said.

“But Keita is a No 8, Keita is a dribbler, and a runner.

“But the way he (Jurgen Klopp) plays he plays 4-3-3 more often than not. So you can accommodate a Henderson and a Keita.”
