I'm starting to think there's more people upset about people being upset by the commentators.

Those people are very selectively and inconsistently upset. It must be wearisome for them to try and keep track of it all, but probably no more so than the rest of their existences, such as they are.

I'm starting to warm to this Salah fella

Our defence has looked so so much more assured over the past few games.

That sense of absolute dread during every opposition attack is slowly fading.

Salah is only the 13th different Liverpool player to score 30 goals in a season, and there's still a third of it still to go! How many is he going to end up with?

I disagree. Whatever the plan was at the start, now that we're 2-0 up there's no benefit to taking risks.

If we're not confident that we can beat Porto at home then there's no reason to think we can safely kill this off either. Better to bore them to death.

At least 12 games to go, could get to 40

If only he had as many games and Dixie Dean he may have broken his record

BorneTobyWilde

Typical Liverpool would be to concede the next goal, then the equalizer and then the winner.

The midfield have been poor though. Porto can move it 50/60 yards without much effort

Well they are decent players. Hardly shocking they can do this.

I got ya alright but put the Suarez that played for ye into that Pool team and he would be pushing 40 easily..

Harry Palmr

Milner in defence playing very well, telling TAA where to be

~Rebel~

Phew, well done VVD! Huge touch!

Jesus, that's scary. Sure hell obviously break that when he scores a brace in the final.

How easy they do it when they try to is! They're losing runners and getting sucked in, so one pass kills them.

Result wise a great first half, should have more but need to be better at stopping them getting forward.

mrsoundie

Balls, I missed this thread opening up, thought I was banned or something.

One_Of_Shanks

Milner has done well, glad for him.

Just a nice boring second half now please.

A 25 year old Gerrard as the most forward player of our three man midfield, with those forwards ahead of him... Now that's a thought.

Oh well!

Ah no we played better than that before. Porto are plain toothless compared to some teams we beat in the last 2 years.

Watching United



Watching Liverpool

~Rebel~

Yeah, on the Salah/Suarez thing.. both incredible, but Suarez was otherworldy. Especially considering some of the types of goals he was scoring, and the workrate. Salah is top notch in both regards too, but just a hair behind where Suarez was for us all in all. But he's been getting better every season over the past few years, even as he stepped into tougher leagues, so who knows how good he can be.

It doesn't even feel like a guy in amazingly good form - as we often say, he misses plenty of chances you'd expect him to score. He just gets into brilliant positions game in, game out.

NukaCola

Solid professional performance. More of the same please.

theoneeyedman

Decent first half. Don't agree with RTE, though Pool had got a good foothold on the game after the first 10 minutes, and had created a few chances before the first goal.
Henderson has been awful, hasn't offered anything going forward, hasn't linked play, hasn't moved us forward, and hasn't offered any real protection for the back 4. What I wouldn't give for Dembele.

Toby killing it with gifs over the couple of days.

Or two more goals? 4-0 sounds like an unbeatable advantage - could play the U18s. Okay maybe not they have been rubbish recently.

We should have 5 by now,very wasteful,mane a shadow of himself,sad to watch.

In fairness to Suarez, all his 31 were league goals.

Not taking anything away from Salah just we had three very easy games in the group stage and qualifiers.

Mr.H

Porto are very average tonight. As I said today, a very good Europa league side. If we don't win by a couple of goals it will be a missed opportunity. West Brom put up a bigger fight. Please FFS their star players look like they wouldn't make the west Brom side based on tonight's performance.

























We are gonna lose aren't we

Osmosis Jones

Mane doing as he has done lately, looking fairly shíte on the ball but still helping out a great deal.

LuckyLloyd wrote: »

It was composed but we didn't really attack with any quality. We had a few decent breaks but both goals were a bit out of nowhere.

Our midfield looked like it ended at the halfway line until we went ahead.

I don't think it was even the most complete performance we've had this week.

Decent performance after 1 and then to a lesser extent after the 2nd, but not having to show any ambition in our play makes it a relatively easy task.
