Brendan Rodgers praises "aggressive" Liverpool

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers praises the "aggressive" nature of his team following their 3-0 win over Manchester United.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has praised the "aggressive" style of his team following their 3-0 win at Manchester United in the Premier League.

The Merseysiders brushed aside their bitter rivals at Old Trafford on Sunday to keep their title hopes alive.

Despite the scoreline, Rodgers believes that his side could have scored more goals during the game due to their fierce attacking approach.

"I thought we were outstanding today. We had real dominance in the game. From the first whistle, our intent to attack, to press and to work as a team was outstanding," he told the club's official website.

"I thought we could have had more goals. We were really aggressive in our game going forward, just that final pass or final touch might have been a bit better to finish them off even more.

"The aggression in our game was there to see. We attacked with great intent. It was a very good attacking performance."

The win has seen Liverpool move to within four points of leaders Chelsea with a game in hand.
