The Liverpool boss, speaking after the game, praised his fringe players for their attitude and commitment.

"We are pleased with the result because winning is always a different task," he said. "We had some injuries before the game but the squad is absolutely superb.

"The first ten or twelve minutes we weren't in the game. Leeds had a better first half than we had, but on the whole we showed composure."
