Liverpool attacker Cody Gakpo has explained why he has not let criticism get to him so far.

The Netherlands forward did come into a lot of scrutiny during his first few games for the club.

Gakpo arrived in a big money deal from PSV Eindhoven in the winter transfer window.

Of course, as a striker, you always want to score and give assists," Gakpo told Viaplay Netherlands after netting his first goal for the club in a 2-0 win over Everton.

In the end, though, it's about winning and if that too doesn't work out, then it's tough.

I have to be honest; I don't really read it (criticism). I get it of course.

That's not so nice for any normal person, but you have to deal with that. I don't think I get confused by that.

I think I could have gone to Jurgen Klopp for that, but I didn't. That was not necessary for me."
