GOALS COULD PROVE COSTLY

A late goal was conceded against Leicester City after being 3-0 up, and Robson was disappointed.

He said: "It wasn't a classic, obviously - but it was a typical match that you get sometimes. We conceded a goal, and the way it is with Liverpool goal difference can be worth a point at the end of the season.

"We did the same against Fulham. We were three up against Fulham and conceded a goal. We could have scored a few more - but before the match if somebody had said 'We'll give you 3-1', I'd have taken it."
