“I was really happy for Liverpool, I was buzzing,” he said.

“People might not believe me but it’s true.

“Seeing some of the boys like Hendo [Jordan Henderson] and Trent [Alexander-Arnold] in the final makes me happy, I’m really happy for them.”

On the upcoming final day of the Premier League title race this weekend, he added: “We know how big an occasion it is. But I’d much rather be on our side, to know if we win the game it’s ours.

“It will be a tough day, that’s for sure. We know Brighton won’t just sit there and let us score goals.

“They’re safe and it is going to be a really tough day, to be honest with you, but it is one I am really looking forward to.”
