Paul Mariner on Liverpool star Naby Keita
“We’ve seen him play in the Bundesliga and everybody’s questioning ‘can he replicate that in the Premier League?’. Yes he can, absolutely.
“It’s a fantastic signing by (Jurgen) Klopp. The midfield ran like an absolute dream.”
Mariner was also full of praise for James Milner, who played in midfield alongside Keita and Georginio Wijnaldum.
“Milner for me, I don’t know how he does it, he’s a fantastic player,” he added.
