      Well, Sean, if you’re reading this you didn’t miss a classic and boy, was it cold, but an excellent professional performance and another 3 points on our March to 2nd place. The Manchester next week is a big one!

        The clean sheet and how we held ourselves defensively overall out of this game is going to help us going into the United game next week.

        We have to be fearless. Away from home we have had 3 defeats all season; Man City, Spurs and Swansea. The Swansea one was a bad day at the office, but the others we can’t really be too disappointed about as they are good quality opposition.

        A draw at United wouldn’t be a bad result for us, but if we can show that same type of application on the road like we did against Southampton we can actually nick it.

        We need to be strong mentality to be able to deal with their supporters who will naturally be vocal, and the pressure thrown at our defence. Can and Henderson if selected will really need to be on top of their game – get the feeling though, Klopp may opt instead for Wijn or James Milner to increase that solidarity.

        Dejan Lovren I feel will partner Vigil Van Dijk, and TAA and Robertson will keep their places respectively at right and left-back.

        The trio select and speak for themselves. Maybe this fixture will be the measure of just how far we’ve come. We’ve yet to take any points off a top six side albeit Arsenal (home and away) and Man City.
