Former Liverpool midfielder Jason McAteer thinks that Everton boss Sam Allardyce will have been scared to look at events at Anfield this evening after the Reds crushed Spartak Moscow 7-0 in the Champions League.

Liverpool were 3-0 up at half time thanks to goals from Philippe Coutinho (two) and Roberto Firmino, as the Russians were left reeling and with a mountain to climb.




Jurgen Klopp's men did not let up in the second period with Sadio Mane striking within two minutes of the restart.

Coutinho made it 5-0 in the 50th minute, while Mane and Mohamed Salah scored again to complete a comprehensive 7-0 rout and guarantee Liverpool top spot in their Champions League group.
 


Next up for Liverpool is the Merseyside derby against Everton on Sunday and McAteer has indicated Allardyce will be concerned with what he has seen.

"Looking forward, Sam Allardyce must have his hands over his eyes mustn't he!" McAteer said on LFC TV.

"That was some performance", he added.

Allardyce will be keen to make an impact in the derby, but Everton face a tough challenge against an in-form Liverpool side.
