Jurgen Klopp has praised his side’s second half performance after they came from behind to collect all three points in a 2-1 win against Swansea.

Leroy Fer put the hosts ahead from three yards out in the early stages of the game before Roberto Firmino got the equaliser. James Milner scored the winner for Liverpool from the penalty spot in the 84th minute and the Reds then held on for the win.

That means that Klopp’s team have now won four Premier League games in a row for the first time since he became manager and his fifth consecutive win in all competitions.

Despite admitting that their performance was far from perfect, he praised their second half reaction after going into the break one goal down.

He told BBC Sports: I ”‹thought we could have done better in the first half. Our body language was not good, we were static and it was easy to defend against us. We are not as good as we should have been.

"You have to show why we are here. We showed a reaction, were more organised, clear in all situations and we deserved to win. Of course I am happy we have had two or three brilliant games in a row.

"If Milner is our top scorer at end of the season with penalties, I have no problem with it. All is good. The performance was not perfect but it was good enough."

All is not good on Merseyside, however, as Liverpool have now failed to record a clean sheet in 10 away games, their worst run since a 12 match streak in 1998.
