Liverpool 4-2 Burnley: 5 Hits and Flops

#3 Flop: Jeff Hendrick

Hendrick struggled to impose himself in midfield against an unpredictable Liverpool side

It was a largely disappointing display by the midfielder, who picked his moments to get involved but ultimately these were too infrequent to justify his ongoing presence against a dangerous Liverpool side who dominated possession while the visitors were content in letting them keep the ball, so long as it was away from their 18-yard box.

He won two aerial duels, made three clearances and a blocked shot - but again this masked his inefficiencies in a midfield where he needed to make more defensive contributions in truth.

No tackles nor interceptions completed, coupled with a poor 40% pass accuracy justifies the point and although he made an important sliding clearance to thwart Andy Robertson's overlapping run in the box, the 27-year-old simply didn't do this enough.

Unsurprisingly replaced with 12 minutes to play for a fresh Gudmundsson, it was perhaps telling that the Icelandic midfielder scored Burnley's second and looked threatening whenever he got near the ball.
