Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is full of admiration for Brighton counterpart Roberto de Zerbi, who has been linked to succeeding the German at Anfield.

Down in the Anfield tunnel, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp shared a warm hug with his Brighton counterpart Roberto de Zerbi in a moment which illustrated the love and respect between the pair.to go top of the Premier League table, when the managers passed each other again during their round of post-match interviews.

Klopp might not have a say in who his replacement will be, but the great esteem he holds for De Zerbi would not have gone unnoticed by the Liverpool hierarchy."Brighton have lost Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo, they have lots of injuries, but he puts a team like that together. An incredible job."

But securing that cushion was hard going for Liverpool against a Brighton side who are well drilled in understanding De Zerbi's demands. Some had billed the game as an Anfield audition for the former Shakhtar Donetsk manager. While his team ended up losing, De Zerbi said they "played well" and "showed their best" against one of the leading teams in the Premier League.
