Jurgen Klopp at full time:

“Good game, cup game, Norwich had their moments. They did well and the second goal was exceptional.

“Our goals were wonderful, we played well from the beginning and we were in charge of the game. Only positives about the game.

“Curtis Jones is in a great moment, super important in different departments. He’s a very good player but a role model as well for our academy guys. If Jones can learn defending, everybody can: positioning, rhythm, everything.”
