Burnley manager Sean Dyche has admitted that there was a gulf in class between his side and Liverpool on Wednesday evening.
The Reds made it 12 Premier League games without defeat as goals in each half from Jordan Henderson and Daniel Sturridge secured a 2-0 victory at Anfield.
"Sometimes you have to give credit to the opposition and we've seen tonight why these players get signed for tens of millions of pounds," Dyche told Burnley's official website.
"That was a highly-expensively assembled group of players, playing at the top of their game and it's a hard task when it's like that. They have quality on the pitch and from the bench and that's part of being Liverpool football club.
"My lads are working hard and there is no lack of effort. The organisation was left wanting in the first half, and in the second half we got a handle on the game, but tonight it wasn't that we were particularly bad, I just felt they were very good."
Burnley remain in the Premier League's relegation zone following the defeat.
