That’s your lot, then. A reminder that Richard Jolly’s report is up. Clickity click! Thanks for reading this MBM. Nighty night.

Brendan Rodgers offers BT his take. “Tonight was not just about the result, but restoring pride, and you saw the fans at the end clapping the players off. They gave absolutely everything. They showed some real moments of quality and we took a really top team to the very end. It was much more like us. My only disappointment was in the final third of the pitch, where we lacked the final pass and a little quality. [Defending corners] has been an ongoing issue for us, zonal and man-to-man, it’s definitely an area that come the summertime, we have to improve on in terms of profile of player and having more dominance in there. We need to grind it through, there’s no magic formula, but we’ve suffered all season at centre half, and unfortunately for us that’s been a challenge. I’m not really worried about the table as we’re behind in games.”
