Goal: Salah 23′


Liverpool’s fast start to the season continued at Anfield as the Reds edged past the Seagulls to maintain their 100 percent winning record.

The Reds weren’t at their best but did just enough to claim the win, and here’s how supporters reacted to the result across social media and on our forums.

 

Fans were happy to see the Reds win without being at their best…

“Doesn’t always have to be a pretty win…winning ugly is just as good…3 points in the bag…”
