Here are three things we learned from yesterday's draw against Spurs:If Liverpool are drawing or winning by one goal, they are far more likely to drop points than to see it out or grab the winnerApart from when Liverpool themselves have scored late on, the only Premier League games in which they have won by a one goal margin this season are Sunderland away, Wolves at home, Spurs away (with nine men), and Everton at home. The Hungarian said: “I don’t think it helps us also that after 80 minutes people start to go home, it doesn’t help us at all.”“Everyone is noticing that and when we concede a goal still people are leaving the stadium – you don’t leave when we score.



I understand the frustration but we need them, we need everybody.“I don’t say they have no right to leave the stadium, they can leave if they want. But we need them and they should know this.

We want to make them happy, it’s not that we do it on purpose. There has never been a more important time to get behind the players.Ironically, people are worried that some of the stronger, more ambitious players will leave if Liverpool don't make top five.Well, one thing's for sure, they are more likely to leave if fans do not appreciate their efforts, wherever they finish.
