'Not much of a discussion' - Gakpo on staying at Liverpool

Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo has been speaking to the media before the Reds' game against Fenerbahce on Wednesday.

The Dutch International said "not much of a discussion" had taken place on his decision to stay at Liverpool after a summer of transfer speculation.

He said he does not have a point to prove after uncertainty over his future, stating: "No not really, I think my mindset has stayed the same like it always had been, trying to perform. I try to enjoy football and life."

Gakpo called the defeat to Arsenal on Sunday "frustrating at times" in reference to some controversial refereeing decisions. Several commentators have said Liverpool were denied a penalty in the first half of the fixture when Alexander Isak's shirt was pulled by Jurrien Timber.

The Reds - third in the Champions League standings - are up against Fenerbahce, who are managed by interim boss Dirk Kuyt and sit 31st from 36 teams.

Asked if the competition suits Liverpool more than their domestic league, Gakpo said: "I think it depends how you look at it. If you look at both leagues, we scored a good amount of goals. Champions League is special. I don't want to say this league suits us more than the Premier League."
