I'd like to thank our good friend, BNMC. We couldn't have done it without you.

Has he not come out of the closet as a Liverpool FC supporter yet?! Spends more time in the Liverpool threads than I do.

Awful game to watch, Liverpool looked jaded and West Ham were happy to keep the game scrappy. Referee was atrocious too. Good win for Liverpool all the same.

Sterling was absolutely brilliant, well done son, you're turning into some player, hardly out a foot wrong with feck all space

Chucky the tree

Gonna enjoy reading this thread from the second half on...

Shouldn't your crowd be rampaging through the streets of Manchester?

They really shouldn't be jaded. They haven't played in a week.

Impressed enough with West Ham, but i wouldnt like my team to play like that and can see why the fans are frustrated

Downing, Carrol, Jarvis, or Suarez, Sterling, Sturridge (only a few million in it)

I'd imagine he'll be getting a weekend off. Scandalously bad decisions out there today.

Don't think WH fans do tbh. Wasn't Allardyce getting stick at the previous home match?

You are always going to get days like this. I was sure Carroll was going to get an equalizer at the end.

Job done, now to regroup and unleash hell on Man City.

Liverpool's win confirms that we will have a new champion - Manchester United can now no longer defend their title.

Liverpool are only the fourth team to ever score 90 goals in a Premier League season. Chelsea 09-10, Manchester United 99-00 and Manchester City 11-12 being the others.

Yep; they got booed off after beating Hull in their last home game.

Lucas in that position was a mistake. West Ham has sat back since he came on.

How wrong did I prove to be eh

He done ok in retrospect!

I have replayed it 3 times on skyplus box, keeper touched the ball first.
Youtube won't lie I will wait for the inevitable upload.

There you go reply on Sky shows Flanagan like I said got the 1st touch of the ball in a 50/50 situation, when that happens usually get a free kick else where on the pitch

He was getting booed even when they won a game. The fans hate the style of football he is playing

Actually; that's only half true. If City draw at Anfield, and win the rest of their games, THEY will be champions. How on earth did that ref get his licence? Two scandalously bad decisions there. I suppose they cancel each other out, but two wrongs don't make a right.

I can see it being a draw next weekend. I still would not be surprised though if Liverpool nicked it. It's being played on the weekend of the 25th anniversary of Hillsborough and I think that will give the Liverpool players a extra incentive as well to go out and win it.

City themselves also have to go to Everton and there past record there suggests that they could well end up with nothing,not to also mention Everton themselves are on great form now and will be more then likely playing for a Champions League place.

I seriously don't know how he did. I expect him to be demoted next week down to league 1 or 2.

BNMC is really turning the season for us. Without him we would probably be battling it out for mid table mediocrity with utd!

You keep telling yourself that, keeper touched the ball first & then the player second, he won the tackle.

Sturridge has been beyond awful

Luis or Sterling weren't much better for long period of the game in fairness.

Hopefully he will come on form again for the next few weeks!

Not a fan of redknapp, but he us litterally sweating in the studio after that, there is NO doubt where his heart is

Tbf, sam has them playing a style that could be at best described as "puke" football (to borrow a GAA phrase).

We deserved to win today, like the cardiff game. It wasnt pretty but we'll take it.

Just to make it clear, not just having a go at him, he has been sensational, but went missing today and looked very tired or leggy.

Score update :

1-0 Liverpool final score

viper006

Fair play to lucas for that 2nd half performance. I wasnt impressed when he took philipe off for lucas but he made me eat my words. Thought he drove us forward well and great through ball for 2nd peno.

That was a tough tough afternoon and to get the points is very satisfying.

Yeah, that's how I interpreted it. Thought our 3 guys upfront all looked the same though, not just Sturridge.

Grayditch

Not an unfair interview from Allardyce.

3 pts, all that matters, everything else is irrelevant to me.

Pour me a glass of ice cold Gerrard.

Watch it again and keep telling yourself that.

Even slow mo showed Flanaghan won the ball 1st

I will leave the thread on a good note..(Your probably all delighted)
It pains me to say it but your win today looked like a championship winning performance.
This has been some stand out performances from uz this season where you have managed to grind out results which you haven't manged to do in so many years.
It sets up next week to be a great watch, even from a Man Utd Fan :P

He already had the ball and was running at the keeper, then the keeper touches the ball and then the player.
That is the sequence of events.

Grayditch

Rodgers loves to talk about his tactics, and he deserves to.

I had a long post typed out, but thought better of it.

I and many Liverpool fans here have had 20+ years of sore winners from various clubs. I nor should any Liverpool supporter apolgise for being happy, coming across as a sore winner even or highlighting some idiots who have been fortunate in who they've supported and took the piss out of Liverpool for decades, or even a decade or just a few months on this forum

No he was not, Lucas passed the ball it was 50/50.

Lapin

Interesting stat -

That was our first win this season without a goal scored by S&S.

SantryRed

2nd Liverpool penalty shouldn't have been given, but then it was a blatant foul on Mignolet for the West Ham goal. Massive 3 points for Liverpool, can't wait for the game next Sunday already!
