Liverpool moved to third place in the Premier League with a 2-0 win against high-flying Brighton at Anfield.
The Reds raced off the blocks and secured the result in the first half thanks to a deflected effort from Florian Wirtz followed by a fantastic finish from Alexander Isak.
Isak has been Liverpool’s leading man this season and has already scored six Premier League goals.
And Cody Gakpo believes the Reds need to do whatever it takes to keep feeding him in front of goal.

Isak was heavily involved in the game and made a defining contribution midway through the first half.
Bradley Barcola used his pace and latched onto a loose ball on the right flank and provided a brilliant cross into the box, which was turned into the net by the Swede with his first touch.
And Gakpo feels Isak can score even more in the coming weeks as he has finally found his rhythm at Liverpool.
“I think everybody knows how good he is,” said Gakpo after the game.
“He’s shown it in the past many times, and I’m very happy for him and his tally so far. Hopefully we can feed him a lot so he can score even more.”
His debut season at Anfield was a bit of a struggle, but Isak finally looks like the player he was at Newcastle United.
