Jeez, that was nervy but that's a super win.

Good win, vital 3 points and coming from behind is great for confidence.

Firmino is great at the innocuous foul that stops the quick counter attack.

martyos121

Well done, that was much more satisfying than a 4-0 battering at this stage. Nice to see some grit and determination.

GREAT WIN
BEST EPISODE EVER !

That's because you're nervous. Nothing really happened in last few mins.

Good 3 points that all considered!

I'd say watching it back without the stress of it being live and it'll look like we're totally in control. They didn't have a shot...

I pity the Puel.

Great 3 points from a so so performance.

kingshankly

Really delighted with that win great to see us getting a result from behind

First defender every time. Just as well his bonuses are for goals and assists.

A quick word for Joe Gomez who played some lovely football out there today, he could be as smooth as Hansen in years to come if he keeps developing.

Really nice comeback, great to see.
They’d the chance that went close past the far post, but that was it really.
Fully deserved win.

Osmosis Jones

Why did Can wait until the last 10 minutes to get the legs going? He was brilliant closing the game out.

Turtyturd

Safe to say Puel isn’t a jinx manager.

Satisfying.

21 games played, only 2 defeats and one of them to arguably the best team in Europe at the minute and we were competitive until we went a man down.

The media and “neutrals” would have you believe we’re soft, but we’re actually incredibly tough to beat.

Utopia Parkway

Burnley away will be tough but they must be tired too. They picked the same team today as they did against United.

Fair play to Mada with the match thread.

Lucky-charm and all that kind of jazz.

Good win for Bournemouth too:D

ricero

Great character showing today by the lads delighted.

Still cant get over how bad the standards of refs are in the premeir league

Fowler87

Great to dig that out. Deserved it though

Shanee.

Thats what we haven't been able to do in recent years. Close out a game, last year Leicester would have scored in the last 5 minutes. Good tough win today

BorneTobyWilde

Watching Liverpool should come with a health warning. I can see it happening for real.

Mr.H

I gotta say guys and gals I really cant wait for Van the man to get into the team. Hopefully he will calm things down. I know he wont fix everything but surely the huge transfer alone will give the team a bit of confidence

Another one from Robertson just beforehand as well.

Fairly well managed other than the fact we were really bad at keeping hold of the ball.

Leicester are the biggest pain in the hole in the league and to get 6 pts off them is fantastic.

Gutsy performance. Lacked quality at times and we struggled to build play from the back but we had more than enough to get the job done and while it felt nervy Leicester's quality up front was poor.

Gomez is a beautiful footballer.
Himself and Coutinho were probably the standouts.

Milner did alright, but he's a limited player and doesn't have the quality to be a footballer of the consistent level we need. He has great moments but some dreadful stuff on the ball at times as well.

I liked Karius today. The keeping the ball out of the net part is the main part of his job and he had basically nothing to do, but everything else looked in keeping with the sort of keeper we need.

We do, however, need a midfield that's capable of playing from front to back and building attacks slowly. It can't just be punts to the forwards all the time. It leaves us with no control of the game.

People losing their cool in here but honestly its not like they've had an actual shot...

I think it's more knowing what we can do to allow them equalize more than what Leicester do.

Anyway, a terrific three points and well deserved in the end.

Osmosis Jones

btw moment of the game has to be Can kicking it out to touch after Leicester doing it earlier in the game.

Big win.

Think we're better away from home so hopeful we get a win there. Would like to see Mignolet and Klavan come back in. Thought Matip was very poor today.

I give Robertson a hard time because I don't think he is the answer long term but in fairness to him he is a good defender and maybe that's enough for this team.

Think Mane just needs a goal and he'll be fine. Has a great knack of linking up with Salah anyway.

As for Salah, we'd be in trouble without him.

People remember the last 10 not the first 10. The bastard is editing his own career for best effect as he goes.

Something that did annnoy me was not running the ball into the corner in added time, there were at least two good opportunities to do so.

BorneTobyWilde

Burley, Everton, Leicester, Watford all losing points. That has finally put a gap between us and these pretend teams.

As we sat deep he had more and more space to run into.

Just because he's a **** DM doesn't mean he's a bad player.

He's always been at his best when he gets to run with the ball a bit further up the pitch. He's just not wired to sit patiently and read the game in CM.

I have a theory, Salah missed a few chances today but they were all from conventional passes, both his goals were assisted by backheels.

Anything in it?

Last year we thumped them at Anfield and scored in the last 5

That's what annoys me so much about him lately. I have no issue with him if he wants to move on at the end of his contract. But we know he's capable of so much more than he's been showing the last few months. Work to the ****ing clock, ffs. Even from his own point of view, it's the world cup next summer, and he's not exactly helping his negotiating position with Juventus, who'll take the teeth out of his agent's head if given the chance.

Karius is so nervy on the ball I'd nearly prefer Mig.

He is awful on the ball. Three or four times in the second half he kicked straight to a Leicester player or mis-hit his kick completely

Mr.H

I wonder if Van Djik will be on the bench Monday. I know he needs to train with the lads but surely give him a couple of mins near the end of the game Monday to just get him going.

Id expect him to probably start next Friday

Resign Balotelli

Osmosis Jones

Firmino, our striker, on the halfway line, passes it to Coutinho, plays it through to Mane who backheels it to Salah for the goal.

He wont be cleared to play until Jan 2nd. He wont start the cup match either. Hes not Klopp fit

Thats the type of game. Watford first game of the season do you not recall? Anyway at least were starting to close out games some bit

I think it may take him a bit longer from how we know Klopp integrates signings...

Was it about 3 games into PL that Ox came on as a sub?
