Yes, this.
With us already losing four games, I think Liverpool minimising their losses, does give them a stronger mindset, at least getting draws when playing poorly.
Our inconsistency, is our biggest issue, but as Carragher said on Monday, with a few games to go, Liverpool will be right there.
It was interesting to read that when Gundogan was with Dortmund, and Klopp won the Bundesliga (twice), he bummed out of all of the cup competitions early doors too, ensuring his squad only had one game per week.
