ReviewLiverpool 1-1 Man City: Analysis of Endo and Van Dijk's 'magnificent' displays

In his regular post-match Review Show, which is now available to watch on LFCTV GO, the former Red analysed an enthralling Premier League encounter.

"It was a great game, the atmosphere was unbelievable," said Mellor. "I thought we deserved to win the game and City would be more happy with the draw.

"Endo was magnificent, he really was! When he arrived, people maybe didn't know that much about him – but they certainly do now!

"The tackles he won in areas that were so important to stop [Kevin] De Bruyne breaking clear were absolutely superb."

Mellor also singled out another superb performance from skipper Virgil van Dijk, who was imperious at the back alongside youngster Jarell Quansah.

"Virgil was unbelievable," he continued. "He just sees danger, he is switched on and clears it. He just leads by example.

"Jarell has been magnificent this season. He is very calm on the ball and the manager trusts him. He was unlucky not to score as well after a great run."
