John McGinn on Jhon Duran: 'Big Jhon is a bit nuts at times, he's a nightmare sometimes to have in your team but he has moments of quality. The second one wasn't a moment of quality but the first one was a top finish.'

HT: Villa will be wondering how they're behind at half-time. Youri Tielemans scored either side of two avoidable Liverpool goals, before Diego Carlos missed a sitter and Moussa Diaby blazed over after going one-on-one with Alisson.
