'We keep going' - What Liverpool dressing room said about win over Brighton

Liverpool players have taken to social media after Saturday's 2-0 win away to Brighton in the Premier League.

The Reds kept up the pressure on Manchester City as they reduced the points deficit to the leaders to just three points - and they still have a game in hand, against Arsenal, at the Emirates on Wednesday night.

Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah were the goalscorers on the day but it was a result the entire team were delighted with as they continue their hunt for more silverware.

Andy Robertson said on social media: "Perfect birthday present, 3 points and a clean sheet! Thank you all for the messages."

"One game at a time," Reds skipper Jordan Henderson said on Instagram.

James Milner posted: "Another 3 points and clean sheet. Amazing travelling support for early kick off Brighton away."

Fabinho added: "Three big points today. We keep going!"

Speaking in his press conference post-match, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said: "It was a difficult game, good opponent, we needed a few minutes to find into the game.

"From the moment on when we found ourselves into the game, we controlled it in a really good way. I don’t think you can deny Brighton constantly or completely because of the quality they have, but we did quite well and scored a wonderful goal in a really good situation.

"We could have scored more, won good balls, real chances from open-play situations or counter-attacking moments, or both. I liked that a lot and I don't expect us to be two or three-nil up or whatever at Brighton."
