Easyjet at Manchester

Quick question which is puzzling me somewhat. Why did the Easyjet that diverted into Manchester not go into Liverpool. From what I hear it was speaking to the controllers at Liverpool which suggested it wasn't far away from the airport. Surely that would make more sense. Would certainly have been easier from an ATC point of view to have given it a straight in at Liverpool rather than trying to get into the much busier Manchester Airport? Also, Easy are based at Liverpool with hangars, maintenance crews etc etc. Seems a bit odd to me. Thanks in advance
