Premier League Live sees Jamie Carragher and David Jones review Liverpool's entertaining 4-1 victory over Stoke City.

Liverpool closed the gap on leaders Chelsea to six points after coming from behind to beat Stoke.

Christmas may be over but Stoke dished out the gifts in a performance littered with defensive errors and Liverpool took full advantage to move back above Manchester City into second.

Jonathan Walters punished some questionable goalkeeping by Simon Mignolet on 12 minutes but a Glenn Johnson mistake let in Adam Lallana for the equaliser.

Roberto Firmino, who started despite being charged with drink-driving on Christmas Eve, made it 2-1 just before the break before a Giannelli Imbula own goal and Daniel Sturridge's first Premier League goal of the season - courtesy of a shocking back-pass from Ryan Shawcross - wrapped up the points for Jurgen Klopp's men.

Jamie Carragher discusses the talking points from Liverpool's win

"I think they were excellent," said Carragher, who was chatting to David Jones from the Sky Sports studio. 

"The Liverpool you would expect week-in week-out. Exciting, scoring goals, always threatening to score every time they attack. But Stoke I thought they were excellent that first 30 minutes and I think for Liverpool to go and win that game 4-1, on the back of the first 25-30 minutes is a great win for Liverpool."
