Former Liverpool striker and pundit Michael Owen has admitted that Jurgen Klopp will be concerned after the Reds conceded first once again last night.
LASK hit the front after just 14 minutes, with last night the fourth time Liverpool have conceded first in a game so far this season.
Despite going on to win all four matches, it is an alarming statistic that boss Klopp needs to address as soon as possible.
Owen admitted last night that although he was impressed with the display, he’s worried about the Reds’ shaky starts so far this campaign.

Speaking on Discovery last night, the former Liverpool striker claimed that the early goals conceded will be a concern to boss Klopp.
“I think he will be slightly concerned, they’ll probably look at it and think ‘why has that happened? Is it a coincidence? Does it happen too much to draw some conclusions to it?
“The overriding feeling would be a little bit of relief, it’s a great first result away from home, you get three points then all of a sudden you’re in a really strong position.
“He will be delighted but a few concerns about why it’s happening all the time. It’s some character they show to come back and win.”
Liverpool have to turn their attention to the Premier League, where they’re looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the campaign.
Klopp’s side will host West Ham at Anfield on Sunday, with the visitors also winning in Europa League last night.
