Plenty of positives to take from tonight, but there was one reason we lost tonight and that was through poor defending.

Last season we were constantly chopping and changing our back line through injuries and Rodgers' experimenting with different partnerships etc. but this season we need to ensure that we find our long term back 4 and stick with them.

The only way they will become a solid unit is with practice. I expect our long term back 4 to be Manquillo, Lovren, Sakho and Moreno, therefore, in my opinion we should start these in every game possible to ensure that they get used to each other.

I guarantee that if we play the same back 4 for the next few months along with the correct coaching, our defensive problems will be significantly reduced.
