SOUTHAMPTON, England -- Three thoughts from Liverpool and Southampton's goalless draw in the Premier League.
1. Liverpool frustrated on the south coast
There were positives for Jurgen Klopp, if he looked hard enough through the driving rain. A clean sheet to silence those who say his team cannot defend. A tenth game in the league unbeaten to continue their extended response to that awkwardness at Burnley in August. But there was no disguising the profound frustration that came with this creditable goalless draw in Southampton. On the touchline in injury time, his hood pulled high, his face contorted with emotion, he urged his players on for a late winner.
