Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are struggling to score, yet Liverpool are repeatedly crossing the ball and results aren’t changing. What was Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity again?

Trent Alexander-Arnold was whipping the ball in over and over, and his 5ft-something team-mates were failing to meet them.

I scored my fair share of goals with my head but, at 6ft 3in, I had a fighting chance! Burnley’s big defenders were gobbling up Alexander-Arnold’s crosses.

But still Liverpool relied on this tactic, as they have in their previous goal-shy games.
