Liverpool enjoyed a brilliant victory over Manchester City and that was largely due to the role of James Milner, with our vice-captain speaking to the media after the game.

The Leeds-born veteran said: “I can confirm that he said he was going to sign for Leeds a few years ago when we played him and he was obviously lying – that’s disappointing!”
