Is Shelvey that fawn from pans labyrinth? Just wonderin

Cartman78

Wow...didn't see that coming

Very assured in the final 25-30 mins for the first time I can remember this season

Huge win and hopefully a confidence boost for all at the club.

Great move leading up to Cole's goal btw - decent finish too

Melion

4 points off 4th

Referee was just awful today.

Yep, he sure is :rolleyes:

Well in second half. Hopefully that'll instill a bit of belief in the squad.

Agree, wasnt a pently for West Ham, and didnt give a stone walled peno for us. Should have been 4-1 but the ref made a match of it.

It's a sad day when you see a few Liverpool fans in here at half time when were loosing arnt here now

First consecutive league wins since December 2011.

donfers

probert did his best to screw us but the best way to deal with dodgy refs is to score goals, thankfully we got three today in the game where we probably created fewest chances this season - that's football

great to finally get a comeback win

great to win in london

great to beat a half-decent side

great to do it without suarez

great that suarez will be back next game and then january and reinforcements are just a few more games away

even more important than the 3 points was the lads showing they can come back from disaster without the leagues top scorer....

worst thing they can do is right off just how significant a win this is...fantastic fight.

Henderson was good, Shelvey showed he as great feet, but what I realised today is how much I trust Johnson. Possibly one of the best footballers in the team. Can't say enough about how much I love having him back...fantastic.

Wow.

Such a massive game. Luis back fresh now for the Xmas period.

This team drags you through the **** and then give you great heights, its tough being a liverpool supporter.

corcaigh07

great spirit about us today,too often we would have given up on that kind of game before. even Joe Cole who was largely poor worked very hard and Downing is looking more comfortable at LB, the coward may have just found his niche.

with Suarez back, December is looking good for us.

El Inho

my immediate reaction to being four off fourth...

are we fúck?

thats class

I was like effin eddien there for the last 10 minutes of that. Great result weeeeeeee

I just saw the Allen handball for the first time.

I have to admit, that is a penalty for me.

In the minority clearly but you can't have your arms out sprawling like that when blocking a shot.

Aye....it's gonna be hard looking back on a title winning season knowing his goal was the moment that kick started it.

I always think they are harsh, have said the same when we got penalties for them.

That result replaces the Chelsea draw as my favourite result of the season so far.

jethro081

that was a relief. i will hold me hands up, i was pretty overly critical, but yeah, very pleased with that win.

still hope we sell on cole though. :pac:

four points from fourth, up to fifth in the form table, and eleven points from the last eighteen. that's definitely more like it.

passremarkable

Great win,delighted!!

Two lads I would have whipped off end up scoring, good thing I'm not manager:)
And Luis back now

It was a definite penalty for us. If his hands were by his side then I'd say no, but his arm was up so a clear penalty. And what stonewalled penalty was not given? Was this the challenge by Reid on Sterling (I think) in the second half where he won the ball?

It's laughable that you think the referee 'made a game of it'. We were comfortable and would most likely have seen the game out had our best player not had to be replaced by a centre half.

Well done to Liverpool for coming back though. Absolutely gutted with the resul.

Shelvey, thought it was borderline, dont think he did get the ball but it was close. Thought he was lucky Shelvey didnt go down when he was pulled.

Ye looked decent, Cole had a good game but is too profilgate to be relied upon as a PL center forward. Diame looked beastly again, why didnt he start vs Chelsea? has that given him the kick he needed?

Didn''t think the Shelvey one was a penalty myself, only watched it on a stream though.

He's refering to the Shelvey one near the end I think. I thought we should have had a pen there too.

Agree with the bit in bold.

Hopefully it's a sign we've turned a corner that we can win without dominating like we usually do.

Seeing the amount of likes you got here. How deluded are Pool fans to even think its possible

lets see who falls for this!

Hammer Archer

Cole does put himself about, has decent control but you're right that he's not really someone you can rely on for goals throughout the season.
No idea why Diame wasn't starting last weekend. I'm a great admirer of James Tomkins, but he will never be a midfielder.

Jelle1880

Bad move to put Tomkins in the midfield.

All in all I think a draw would have been correct, we failed to finish the game after going up 2-1.

Ouch Diame ruled out for up to 12 weeks with a hamstring tear suffered in the 3-2 defeat to Liverpool. #SSN

Huge blow for them. Him going off was a big boost for Liverpool today. He'll be missed.

Well the silver lining is that it means he won't be going anywhere in January. There had been talk of a ridiculously low release fee allowing him to talk to clubs in January.
That's a massive blow for us though.
