noodler

What a save with his legs.

Nuri Sahin

What a save Mingolet!

Grayditch

Brilliant stuff from Mignolet. It was offside, though.

Agueroooo

Great save

enrique again

Kess73

Well in Mignolet. Nice stop

mike65

Offside, well saved.

Washington Irving

What a save! :eek:

Yep, Sunderland having a powerful forward is not causing us the kind of problems so far that type of player normally gives us.

Sakho is having no problems handling Altidore.

Yep .. days of carra with drogba spring to mind .

Linesman you mean since the player was offside

Francie Barrett

Moses needs to be much better.

Nuri Sahin

You could just imagine the damage Coutinho would be doing playing in between the Sunderland lines of defence and midfield.

klose

Not great but cant complain with a 2-0 scoreline, if sunderland play like this more often theyll be fine. I expected this kind of performance from em like many others im sure

Days of pretty much every CB we have use since Sami left. Carragher was certainly not the only one that had bad days against strong fast forwards. Can remember quite a few of those days between Skrtel and Agger as well.

messinkiapina

Rubbish apart from the goals. We can't keep expecting to get results playing like this.

Turtyturd

Sh*te opening 20...good following 20...meh last 5.

Sahko and Golo have been getting away with a lot/getting the benefit of the doubt in the first half, that won't continue in the second.

ManOnFire

Feel sorry for Moses, he needs to be wide more often thats where his best work is done

donfers

poor first half, lucky to be two up, big improvement second half please, sunderland the better side

having said all that, give me bad performances and good results all day long, it's how united have won their last few titles

mike65

Moses is nearly nearly very good and then not at all good in the space of a second.

2-0 is a decent scoreline in the circumstances but I won't rest until its about 4.

The middle and use of the flanks is clearly an issue still - Johnson for Hendo and Coutinho for Moses would make all the difference.

Can it be a backpass going forward?

Yes.
Strictly speaking its not the 'backpass' rule as direction never comes into it, more correct to call it the 'pass to the keeper' rule.

Agueroooo

Hopefully Rodgers is reminding them of the past few second halves and we dont take the foot off he pedal.

we really need another goal.

barone

strange, dont feel we are playing well at all .. seen the good and bad from mingolet so far

Grayditch

We're not playing great overall, but I'd take this over playing great and it being 0-0.

Washington Irving

Indeed. 2-0 is a dangerous lead as they say.

prettyboy81

Job done by LFC me thinks....

stampydmonkey

not playing great but will absolutely take 2-0. Enrique is pure headless but offering good width. If we had Johnson & coutinho back we would be destroying them. Moses has woken up but think he is just gliding through the game. Seems to be walking when he could get into better positions. Sturridge and Suarez looking good. The link up will take a few games but there are good signs! Come now lads, 2 more goals in the second half!


...for us.

Nothing on my time line unfortunately :P

Still not entirely convinced this team CAN play great. Which is worrying.

jamaamaj

Hope to see a different Liverpool in the 2nd half and for them to push on for once this season and finish up 3 or 4 nil.

Agueroooo

Revert back to 4 at the back and bring on Ibe for Moses.

Turtyturd

Much like United without Fergie....Stoke being beaten without Pulis whinging doesn't have the same appeal.

klose

We are missing our most creative player in coutinho and an essential cog in johnson, you could see what we are capable of the second of last season, well get to that again when they return imo

Nuri Sahin

We still haven't seen our full strength side play this yet..

SlickRic

it's sweet having Suarez back in the team.

That's true actually . I guess I'm just thinking of high profile games where carra was bossed .

Onwards and upwards .

Thought Moses done ok in the 1st half,
And he will help out the defence more than Ibe.

Turtyturd

Sturridge praying to a bag of dicks.

SlickRic

and just to say, I still have no time for Suarez the person...but his quality is hugely welcome.

Was Suarez limping there?

Agueroooo

Balls did Sturridge just pull up after that pass

Nuri Sahin

Trying that chip goal he did for Uruguay a good few years ago.

Need a 3rd goal here

retalivity

Suarez does look pretty hefty.

klose

I look forward to cissokho returning

BMMachine

impressed with Lucas so far. such a vital cog in the team.
ive a feeling toure is gonna do something stupid though...

Kess73

Bugger that

kaimera

balls.

double GG

It was coming.

Grayditch

And here's where it all falls apart.

Nuri Sahin

Oh dear.
