Martin Skrtel: Arsenal win was "perfect"

Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel says that their 5-1 win against Arsenal on Saturday was "perfect".

Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel described the Reds' 5-1 win against Arsenal on Saturday as "perfect".

Skrtel scored two early goals and Raheem Sterling added a brace of his own either side of a Daniel Sturridge strike, and the Slovakian defender was full of praise for his side's performance against the Gunners.

Speaking to the club's official website, Skrtel said: "It was a perfect win for us. We knew before the game it was going to be tough, and it's always special when you play big teams like Arsenal.

"We just wanted to start the game well and show we were ready for them - to be leading 4-0 after 20 minutes was perfect. We're just happy we got three points from the game.

"We are ready. We beat Everton 4-0, we beat Arsenal 5-1 - they are big wins and big points for us. Now we have to be focused for the next game we play, on Wednesday [against Fulham]."

The Reds are currently fourth in the Premier League.
