Liverpool secured a much-needed and statement victory at Anfield on Wednesday, February 21 as they dispatched a brave Luton Town side 4-1. It was far from an ideal outing for the Reds who were without as many as 10 of their key players out with injuries and they did not make the best start going 1-0 down really early.

They trailed the game for the whole first half but as they have done so many times this season, Liverpool came back roaring in the second half and absolutely blew the Hatters out of the game.

Skipper Virgil van Dijk leading by example, opened the scoring from the spot and his fellow Dutchman Cody Gakpo doubled soon after. Luis Diaz and Harvery Elliott also found the back of the net as Jurgen Klopp secured three massive points with almost half of his squad depleted by injuries. Here, we will take a look at three talking points from the game.

Liverpool’s mentality look unmatched

Liverpool have overcome almost every possible obstacle coming their way this season and are hoing through a difficult period with so many players out injured. Their season could easily be derailed but Jurgen Klopp and his boys have shown that they have what it takes to grind out results regardless of who is available and who is not.

They are truly mentality monsters and have done it again by winning yet another game from losing position. Alexis Mac Allister is relishing an advanced role with Waturu Endo doing wonders in the number six position.

In the early parts of the season, Alexis Mac Allister had his fair bit of struggles having been deployed in the number six role. He eventually started relishing that role too but certainly fares a lot better when playing as an eight.

The World Cup winner had a fantastic game last night with Waturu Endo sitting as a single pivot and doing the dirty work. Endo also deserves plenty of credit for how well he played and he was absolutely everywhere on the pitch.

Luton Town should be able to stay up

When Luton Town got promoted, they were nailed on favorites to go straight down and were not given the respect they deserved. However, the Hatters have fared pretty well in the Premier League despite their obvious lack of quality.

With a side almost reminiscent of that of a Championship side, they find themselves 18th in the table but have been a lot better than fellow promoted clubs Burnley and Sheffield United. Rob Edwards is doing an unbelievable job at the club and they should manage to stay up given hown well they have done especially against the bigger clubs. It will indeed be quite a story if they manage to do so.
