Liverpool managed to continue their perfect Premier League start as they beat Burnley 1-0 on Sunday.
The Reds now have 12 points to their name, with Mohamed Salah’s last-minute penalty the deciding factor between Liverpool getting three points, rather than just the one.
Indeed, their results have been somewhat lucky this term, with a lot of their game-winning goals coming in the dying embers of their clashes.
And, although it keeps fans glued to the game, it’s not good for the club to be constantly relying on last-minute winners to get them through.

If Arne Slot’s men want to prove their dominance and show that they’re the main contenders for the Premier League title, they’re going to have to buck up their ideas as soon as possible.
Roy Keane slams ‘crazy’ Milos Kerkez after what he did against Burnley
Milos Kerkez’s start to life as a Liverpool player has been far from ideal.
The left-back has committed way too many fouls, and he was even hooked in the 38th minute against Scott Parker’s men on Sunday.
Last term, the full-back was nominated in the Premier League’s team of the season but since his £45million transfer, it’s hard to see why.

Indeed, he may need to get settled into his new surroundings, but the fact that he’s not shown all that much improvement yet is concerning.
These are also the thoughts of Roy Keane, who, while live on Sky Sports, gave his thoughts on the Hungarian’s performance.
“He’d obviously got a yellow card for a crazy dive, he then makes a fall towards the halfway line and he knows Burnley will go on the counter attack,” Keane said.
“Why he’s looking to go down, obviously VAR and the referee are all looking at it.”
David Jones then asked: “Do you think he’s just a young player trying to make his way at a new club and trying to make a big impression?
Keane then responded with: “No, no, be quiet Dave, he made an impression alright.”
Milos Kerkez must find his form for Liverpool soon
This summer, Liverpool underwent a lot of change.
Of course, teething problems are to be expected, but in the grand scheme of things, Kerkez should be playing a lot better than he has been recently.
The left-back was one of the most-needed additions to Liverpool’s first-team squad this summer.
And, when it was announced that the former Bournemouth man had joined, fans were over the moon.

Thus far, however, whenever Robertson has been brought on, he’s done a much better job than the Hungarian has, which is far from ideal.
At the moment, it’s anyone’s guess what could happen, but with the way things have panned out thus far, the main thing that’s clear is that unless Kerkez improves soon, Robertson should stay as Liverpool’s starting left-back.
