After a return to the AXA Training Centre to speak to Jurgen Klopp in the flesh on Friday, the Reds were back in Premier League action on Saturday, squeezing past West Ham United courtesy of Sadio Mane's winning goal at Anfield.
It was a nervy game in the end, but one reflects well on Klopp's men that they were able to emerge from a fairly even contest with the maximum points.
They will likely be the better team more often than not between now and the end of the campaign, so it bodes well that they can also win games when not at their fluent best.
