What was your assessment of that, Jürgen?
Good game, difficult but good.
We all know it's always difficult against Burnley, for different reasons,
and today in a few more circumstances it was even more difficult.
One of them was the early goal we conceded,
I think usually it would have been disallowed, I don't know if Andre had a better view of it...
I saw it in the first moment and thought it was a foul,
and now I saw the pictures, you cannot treat a goalie like this, so it should not happen.
But they scored, the good thing is it was early, eight minutes,
so enough time to react, enough time to turn it around, that's what we did.
We had the ball pretty much all the time, we created,
we had 23 shots or something like that, versus three.
The quota is quite impressive - three times and two of them went in.
That's not bad. But...
..wonderful play for the first goal, little one-two in the box,
Mo presses through, Bobby, easy goal.
Second one, Adam Lallana, fantastic counter-pressing block, Sadio can finish it off.
Third one...
..I think would have been a penalty, but Bobby was there again. Was it Bobby?
And, yeah, then of course they score the next one.
I think it was a foul but there were obviously more serious fouls in the history of football,
we have to react better, but I didn't see it back, why the ball bounced in our box,
Crouchy was on the pitch then, I think he was involved somehow,
nobody could defend the ball really well, and they scored a second,
and of course it becomes a bit tricky all of a sudden,
but the boys reacted well, scored a fantastic fourth goal, really nice.
I think if Sadio goes down, again, I think Burnley twice got lucky, not a penalty.
So it was good, 4-2 is a brilliant result, we knew it was really difficult against Burnley,
it always us for us, but most of the time we could win,
and we always felt the work. That's how it should be, all good.
When you look at that first goal and some of the decisions over this weekend,
it's quite a crucial time of the season for those decisions,
how important is it that referees get these decisions correct?
Oh, very, but of course, would it make sense if I put more pressure on?
The last part of the season is the decisive part, it's the same for all of us,
I always said it, to win something you always need a bit of luck, and that's involved.
That's why I said, I think if Andre Marriner had a better view of that situation
I think he probably would have whistled it. I think, we'd have to ask him.
Or if he thinks it's completely fine, I don't know.
It's always influential, but it doesn't help if we put more pressure on.
I think they try everything to whistle in the right way.
Yesterday, is it finally decided whether it was offside or not?
Did anybody say it was now 100 per cent offside or it wasn't?
Does anybody know that?
It's still not sorted. So that says everything about this situation.
We conceded a similar goal when Dejan Lovren touched the ball,
it was not exactly like that, against Tottenham.
He touched the ball but I think, from a football point of view,
it's not a criticism, but from a football point of view that should be offside.
The player who gets the ball at the end doesn't care who touched the ball in between,
because we all know Janmaat only went to the ball because he only knew Sterling was there.
He cannot be linesman and player in the same moment.
It's difficult enough to be the linesman, and a player as well,
so you cannot give that responsibility to the player and say,
"If you don't touch the ball he's offside,
"but you touched the ball and so now he's not offside."
That's a bit tricky. But there will be other tricky situations before the season is finished,
and we have to make sure that we do enough in the right way
that it's not too influential for us.
Jürgen, it's so encouraging to see Adam Lallana play like that.
You obviously made a big call putting him in, probably not a big call for you,
but you had lots of options...
Yeah, it's... I said it a couple of times now,
but we had a long training week and a lot of sessions in that week,
and I said at the beginning of the week, it's possible to show up.
Usually you don't have to say that because it's clear anyway,
but maybe in a situation when you play a lot of times with 12, 13, 14 players
then it's important that the boys know it, and Adam used that.
Not only Adam, but Adam especially. So at the end it was clear,
if he can play like he trained, and then he can help us a lot,
and that's exactly how it happened today.
We all know it, he's always good on the ball
but he's also a pretty aggressive boy,
so the counter-press situation is a game-changer,
it's a brilliant thing in that moment,
it didn't really look promising until Adam jumped in that situation.
So well done, really well-deserved, all the praise for the day, I'm really happy for him.
Jürgen, it's obviously the start of a big week,
how important are the four goals and to share the goals around?
Today it was important, two weeks ago we scored five goals against Watford
and then we didn't score against Everton
and everybody asked me about more offensive line-ups!
I think next time if we don't score, you will ask that again.
And that's how it is, of course four goals are very important
but what has that to do with the Bayern game?
I don't think it's easy to score there...
Surely it fills the team with confidence.
Oh, we have no problem with confidence.
We didn't have a problem with confidence after the Everton game,
you don't have to think that everything you write really has an influence on us.
It's not like that, most of the things are not interesting to us, that's the truth.
You make a big fuss if we score five, then we're the best attacking side in the world,
then we score nil and we have an offensive problem.
Today Mo Salah for me was the best player on the pitch,
and he didn't score. I'm not sure you'll see that in a lot of ratings,
because he's a striker and he didn't score, and so you make of it what you want,
but we have no problem with confidence, we are in a good moment, I said that before.
But that means we need all the players fit on the pitch, we again have little injury problems,
Milly was not able to be involved today, Dejan was not planned to be involved
but he was on the bench. He only trained twice, but we had nobody else.
The kids, but they played for the U23s.
So, just do the job, and that's what the boys did all the time,
not always with the result we wished for,
but probably everybody in the league can say that.
We only have to make sure that we stay
in that really interesting competition on top of the table,
and the message for today - nobody gets rid of us if we play as we played today.
Because we had the perfect mixture, from fighting the opponent, the circumstances,
and playing football, so that was really good, I liked it.
Any final ones, guys?
Jürgen, do you expect Burnley to stay up?
Oh, stay in the league? Yeah, of course.
They've got too much quality, the guys up front, brilliant, well-organised.
I can imagine how it feels with 30 points and all the results yesterday,
I was in similar situations, but as a Burnley fan I would not be too worried.
Jürgen, I was wondering if you had a chance to look at what happened
with the Bayern players who've been retired from the national team by Joachim Low
and maybe how that impact how they feel,
if they have to prove themselves ahead of the international break?
Muller still can't play against us, that didn't change.
The other two?
Good centre-halves obviously. I'm pretty sure I will be asked about that
every five minutes from tomorrow on, and maybe I'll say something about it
but I will not start today, because I didn't think for a second about it.
Maybe it makes sense one time in my life to think before I answer.
