I think Klopp's "3 dirty points' analogy was on the money!"
Team played well in patches but had either team been more clinical the result could have gone either of the 3 outcomes.
Positives have to be the 2 CBs who are beginning to look like a partnership, that certainly bodes well for the run in.
Trent's form continues to improve which is so crucial, similarly Mane is playing himself into a bit of form which we desperately need.
And Jota injects some directness and invention into our play.
The negatives for me were the midfield, those three were strong in Europe but last night Gini looked tired, Thiago always looked tired and Fab had to much to do trying to cover for Thiago.
I love the way he passes the ball (although it wasn't great last night) but i think he is too slow and immobile for the frantic pace of English football. I was relieved when Klopp made the changes in midfield. Naby has looked quite sharp the last couple of weeks so maybe we will see him a bit more after the break (unless of course he gets injured!)
Just great to get the 3 points though!
