He will be vital for us in the crucial part of the season. We’re very, very focused and very determined to not live in the future. We’re living in the now, focusing on now, and the next challenge is the Premier League. We have to take that later on.”

“He just needed that bit of luck to give him the confidence. He’s horrible to play against sometimes, so I’m just buzzing for him that it’s coming to fruition in games.” he said.

Iheanacho will be hoping to add to his goal tally when the Brendan Rodgers side take on West Bromwich Albion later this evening.
