We left the door open, says Klopp
Jurgen Klopp was frustrated by Liverpool's lack of killer instinct as Burnley became the first visiting side to avoid defeat at Anfield in the Premier League for 18 months in a 1-1 draw on Saturday.
Andy Robertson's first-half header had the champions on course to maintain a perfect home record this season and close in on a record points tally for the English top flight.
But the Reds were made to pay for a host of missed chances when Jay Rodriguez earned a point to further Burnley's late push for a place in Europe.
"We left the door open, we didn't close it. We should have scored two, three, four goals at least," said Klopp, who was also irked by referee David Coote's lenient attitude to Burnley's physical approach. "The ref let all these challenges today happen. When the ball comes in the box, Burnley are always dangerous.
"They stayed completely in the game, they did what they wanted to do. It is frustrating because we should have scored earlier."
Liverpool can still break Manchester City's record points haul of 100 two seasons ago, but will now need to win all three of their remaining matches against Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle.
