Fantastic result today. My money was (figuratively) on a draw. I am very impressed that we could play 120 minutes on Wednesday night in Turkey and still show up on Saturday to do a professional job. The scoreline flattered Saints in the end. Bobby should've had another, and Adrian has made a bit of a howler. Could possibly have been a mental tiredness after the Super Cup but I think he is simply still adapting to our style. Don't forget that Alisson did a very similar thing against Leicester in his first few games last season. We play a very risky passing game at the back and hopefully Adrian will learn as quickly as Alisson did.

Mane, Ox, Bobby and Salah looked fantastic at times today with quick interplay, but also looked tired at other times. It really does bode well for the future though. I think we'll really kick into gear next week against Arsenal and then hopefully the lads will come back from the international break ready and raring to go with Alisson and Keita recovered. Onwards and upwards. Now to watch the competition slog it out for 90 minutes safe in the knowledge that we have 6! (points)

A bit like Wednesday TB2. I'll take that tough 3 points all day long after the SuperCup. I worry for the Arsenal game though, hoping anfield drags us through.

PB, it would help if the defenders stopped incessantly passing the ball back to h=Adrias that puts too much pressure on him. I said the same thing last season when they kept doing the same thing with Allison with led to some hairy moments as well. I think Klopp had a word at half time cos they rarely did that in the 2nd half except when necessary.
