Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp all smiles at training after Sam Allardyce clash
But just as Liverpool threatened to get back into the game Carroll snatched it away from them, rising above Nathaniel Clyne to powerfully nod Noble’s cross past Mignolet and into the back of the net.

And it is just the first in a series of games in a month which could be a defining one in terms of Liverpool’s season.
Liverpool, who beat high-flying Leicester City 1-0 on Saturday with another second-half goal from Benteke, have 30 points from 19 games but Juergen Klopp’s side are behind Manchester United on goal difference. Of course, we see this.
Plenty of players are now resigned to the Anfield treatment table, including the likes of Divock Origi, Danny Ings, Jordan Henderson and James Milner.
While his first 45 minutes at the Stadium of Light were tantamount to torture for the travelling Kop, Benteke’s goal 22 seconds into the second half prompted a swift improvement from the Belgian. However reports indicate that Liverpool are not the only suitors for the 19 year old winger as arsenal and Manchester City have reportedly expressed their interest in the player (Leroy Sane). I want to have him in the best shape, that’s what we’re trying to do, that’s all. So it’s very important in games like this that you win.
The manager also spoke about the goal difference Liverpool have, and spoke about the need to score more goals.
“We defended well because you have to”.
“We are going to have our ups and downs but we are definitely a good team”.
Klopp said he had mixed feelings about grinding out low-scoring wins, with the manager pleased with the attitude shown but aware that his attacking players could have “made life easier” in making the points safe.
“The good thing in this moment is we have played different styles and adapted against special opponents”, he remarked.
