Newcastle v Liverpool, 6/12 4pm, SS1

SlickRic

Well done Newcastle.

Utterly deserved.

You just need to get up for every game like today, and you won't be anywhere near the relegation zone.

Far too many good players in that team to be in the trouble you're in.

Was expecting a very comfortable win for Liverpool today given the recent form of both teams. This is what happens when I get their players into my FPL team.

Fair play to Liverpool fans

Thought ye were only messing with yer predictions earlier

De Jong, if he can keep fit, will be immense.

Fair play to McLaren.

Nonsense, win today and they would have right up there. Much as I would love to see Leicester winning it, they are in a false position. A top four finish is highly probable given that Chelsea are done for. Spurs will flop later in the season like they always do. Carragher believes they are title contenders too and he knows a thing or two about LFC and football in general. They bookies have them third favourites too.

Bookies odds mean fcuk all. Just means mug punters putting money on them.

If you think top 4 is probable it's even money. Easy money for you to be made.

Spurs finishing poorly in previous seasons has no relevance to this season.

That's why bookies do well. Plenty of idiot punters!

Yes sure and obviously quite a lot of them too as he said it moved the odds from 12s to 10s

Chelsea now 2 points off the relegation zone.

This fella loves the "What was going through your mind?" question.

Is there a more pointless question to ask in this context?

Wijnaldum and Elliot are just as deluded as the folks backing liverpool to title

What did they say? Not watching on Sky.

Lucas and Allen are terrible players on the ball. Maybe Lucas gives you something without it but a horrible midfield for Liverpool

Wijnaldum was sure his "shot" was on target and going in anyway.
Elliot thinks his defence are excellent especially janmaat and knew it was offside.
Now they're going to push on apparently (but they can't play a poor liverpool every week).

Just looking back again. Wijnaldum looked more offside for the second than moreno did for the disallowed one.

Silver lining is it pushes Villa closer to relegation.

Didn't score on a night out in Birmingham or something?

They never showed a good angle on it in all the replays.

Can forgive Gigi for that little quip but the truth is, we don't have a good back 4. We most certainly have potential there but they need to buck up their ideas and start working harder for each other because 8 goals conceded in the last 2 games prior to this one says differently.

We've heard the "push on" remark before and it hasn't happened. A clean sheet, 2 goals against a dangerous team should be platform enough but means nothing if we don't at least try to replicate the same system against Spurs next week.

If Wijnaldum is claiming that goal, he's taking the p1ss. It wasn't going to go in without the deflection.

Klopp seems a likable bloke. Honest and realised his team just aren't good enough.
Better to lose a bad game than a good game.
Although he has no problem with dirty points.

That_Guy

2-0 win.

1 shot on target.

~Rebel~

Christ that Sky interviewer guy is really terrible. Klopp is honest and open with him, and gives him scope to ask some meaningful questions expanding on what's been said.

Instead he sticks to his cue cards, asking things Klopp has already answered voluntarily.

D'Agger

Well deserved win for Newcastle

Winajidumdum, Anita & Collicini were impressive. Sturridge didn't win a header after coming on & was generally poor

Would say unlucky with the first but they happen, dust it off and move on. Lallana seemed to offer creativity coming on, think Moreno is continuing to improve despite some poor delivery, denied a great goal too. Thought Allen put in a serious shift also. Ultimately Newcastle fought much harder for the win, Liverpool not at it enough to have gotten 3 points there

Mid table team that is over achieving.

Good man, Steve.

Allen deserves very little criticism today.

I thought he was easily Liverpool's best player.

Well played, quiet like McClaren even if he is doomed anyway.

Even the relegation battle isn't a sure thing in this fcuking league.

I can't fathom the result myself. By rights, Liverpool should have waltzed in there and just destroyed a limp and lifeless looking Newcastle.

Very odd team we are in that we only seem to try when the cameras are on us against the big teams.

It's the Pardew effect, he's always had a knack of upsetting the big teams with his masterful tactics. Many of the current Newcastle squad were there under Pardew and still know how to disrupt the teams.

Delighted that yous won, a few more wins for Liverpool and they'll be prematurely celebrating winning the league again.

Liverpool should win easily on paper, but we have a tendency to throw away the game against lower teams sometimes. Hopefully that won't be the case and we hammer them. It will either be a 4-0 win for pool or 2-1 Newcastle

Yera, close enough!
