Well not really, but almost...
"Player for player, when we are at our best, we are better than Liverpool.
"We know we can reach a higher level of football than them and keep that up for 90 minutes.
"We are confident, if we play to our standards, we can do it better than Liverpool. We're not going there for a war or a battle but to play quality football.
"We know it will be a difficult game but if we play quality football, and we have more chance of doing that, we are more likely to win.
"Liverpool are very strong physically but it's not about confrontation more timing, space, attitude and anticipation. It doesn't matter how big you are as long as you are first on the ball.
"I've always believed football is about technique. The quality teams, the championship-winning teams are not about body-builders or muscle but about brains and technique.
"We are aware Liverpool have five points more than us but as a coach I try to keep my mind focused on the next three points."
