Yeah it's not good enough at all from Mignolet.

It's a good header at the same time, given the angle etc, but a really good keeper would save that every time.

If you have an attempt on target against us it's usually a goal anyway.

Turtyturd

Did Allen just bully Milner off the ball?

Turtyturd

Should have passed to average.

Gbear

Lallana is the only one who looks like he hasn't been on the piss for the past few days.

Turtyturd

Great play average.

FUN BOBBY!!!!

One_Of_Shanks

That's a sublime finish by Firmino. Absolutely beautiful.

Slightly fortunate overall to be ahead but fook it.

Harry Palmr

Origi doing Trojan work when Mig or a CB goes long, nothing wrong with mixing it up style wise.

rob316

no coincidence firmino looks 10 times better and scores playing through the middle again.

MD1990

Origi & Lallana been our best players. Lucky to be leading as we have been poor but Stoke have a terrible defence.
Mignolet & Lovren are not good enough long term. Both been very poor.

ShamoBuc

Very happy to be ahead at ht. Started slowly and could have been more than 1 down. More goals in the second half for sure, 4-2 or 5-2 on the way, I fancy Origi to bang in a couple hopefully. When we upped the pressure, Stoke had no answer, we have to keep the pressure on. Allen on a yellow , that should curtail him somewhat.

Hope I'm not jinxing it but this win takes us to 40 points.

Safe for another season... :pac:

Harry Palmr

Another boring 4-1 win, people panic far too quickly in match threads. I'll take this sort of thing over a mind crushingly dull controlled 1-0/2-0 type game. :pac:

Gbear

No hand wringing required about the start of the game now. We were a bit sloppy but Stoke were excellent to be fair and our response was energetic if lacking in brilliance.

Lallana was brilliant throughout and most grew into the game after 25, especially Mane, Milner and Origi.

Liverpool have gone 1-0 down in 4 matches this season and won 3 of them. Only Chelsea & Everton have won as much from a goal down #lfc #efc

Liverpool have now scored 100 PL goals since Klopp took over

Milner has been wonderful for us. So many people doubted that it would work out but he's been ultra-consistent.

A really proper pro.

SM01

Firminio MOTM. Do they still give a bottle of Champagne for that? Awkward...

Turtyturd

That was actually a highlight of a sh!tty Christmas. Hate going behind but theres always the belief that if we do we can alway up it a couple of gears and get the result.

Very encouraging stat as we eased off in the last 20 mins.
Looks like our fitness levels are being managed very well.

Grayditch

We won there. Grand.

I'm still shocked at how bar the odd moment he seems to be able to keep up with anyone down the opposing right flank. You'd nearly think he was a dedicated full back oddly with short legs

Problem with that is when the game plan goes wrong this way we are usually 2-0 down already whereas the dull controlled game goes that way far less. Just look at Chelsea. I rather watch us obviously but at this point I think it is short termism. What we really want to watch is us winning the title, each game individually being entertaining won't neccessarily get us there.

He has lovely little legs

The Kop were belting out Merry Christmas Everton tonight!

Harry Palmr

Is the City game a free hit? Almost feels like it, a win would obviously be splendid but I'd take a draw with a slightly weakened starting 11 and beat Sunderland over a home win and a leggy defeat against Moyes side. Admittedly it's not easy to organise that sort of thing! As for the FA Cup - Klopp can play the U23s for all I care.

From watching city recently I see no reason not to go for the win, they are there for the taking.

BorneTobyWilde

Middlesbrough have conceded less goals than us, really need to improve in that area to take us to next level. I don't think it would take away from our goals scored either, a lot of goals we concede are down to individual mistakes rather than a team cutting us open.
New goal keeper and get Matip back in side would be a start.

BorneTobyWilde

City game is a game we will be fired up to win, it will be full on pressfest .
We will be at it from the start, it's a huge game.

Yeah its the Mane one after the merseyside derby. Very quick witted, they were singing it in pubs afterwards apparently.

Never been in a pub

Lads am I right in saying we're 16 points better off than this time last year ?

MentalMario

Break the bank for a keeper and centre half in January. Lovren is not and never will be good enough to be a starter.

27 points after 18 games last season, so 13 points better plus plenty of g/d

Yeah, but we've still phuck all chance of making top 4.

We were on 27, with 21 goals scored and a -1 GD.
Game week 27 before we had 41pts.

Great to get Firmino & Sturridge scoring again.

Big time neither of our main keepers are good enough for this level, a good keeper saves you points during a season ours will cost us points, Lovren is an acceptable backup CB but we need someone better to play alongside Matip, maybe consider buying a decent LB as well, with a top class keeper and CB to go alongside Matip we could be real title challengers, without them we're top 4 and nothing else.

I'm Willing to make a large wager that neither of them will happen. Unfortunately

Chelsea will win so we have to get the win imo if we are serious about challenging.

But we'll win the most important competition, the points/ £ spent and that's all that matters.

Jaysus but I'm getting cynical in my old age.

What will I be like when I'm Harry's age? :pac:

BorneTobyWilde

Lallana really has come full circle as a player. Wait , would that not bring him back to where he once was, a man with a fear of ''the box''
But what ever the case it's great to see him taking the game to opposition,and taking the responsibility to changes games onto his shoulders. He never done that under Rodgers, he was one to hide, the one to make the fancy touch and turn and declare '' my work here is done''
