Pretty gutsy performance in bad conditions and the opposition gifted an early goal by the officials.
We switched off in injury time, just got complacent, for their 2nd - Virgil the only defender trying to cover 4 Burnley players. And Alisson came within a ball hair of dropping that last cross of theirs - thank F**k he recovered it! Overall though a decent performance, showing a bit of grit and composure.
Lallana MOTM - all action from the off. Said before I don't know why so many have been writing him off this season. He's had injury problems, but when he's played he's done well. He's still 29 or 30 I think, so he could be a good player for us for another 3 seasons. He suits Jürgen's style and we press better when he plays. Plus he's more creative than Hendo, Fab n Gini. Could be important for us in the run in.
Anyway, vital win. Good character from the team. Confidence boosting goals for Bobby and Sadio as well, at a good time. Salah played well today too, just could do with a goal.
