Rio strikes to seal chaotic win at Newcastle

Fresh from a wild night at St James Park, James Pearce joins Tony Evans and Oli Kay to analyse another disjointed but ultimately victorious performance by the Reds, sealed by that incredible last-minute winner by Rio Ngumoha. How much should we expect of Anfield's latest wunderkind - who only turns 17 at the end of the week. Perhaps more importantly, can we fix our wobbles at the back in time for Arsenal at the weekend?
