Dya know what was good about that? Liverpool, for much of that match, were in second gear, sloppy in posession, making mistakes, new players were nervy and unsure... and the utterly pissed the match. Hilarious.
I love the fact that as soon as Utfd blew up at the beginning of the season, the media immediately latched onto Spurs as a likely contender for Cl places. They have a total blind spot for Liverpool, they cannot countenance that Liverpool are a good side with good players.
I would say that I think Spurs have the bones of a good team and they did play midweek; it will eb a different ketle of fish for Liverpool when the CL group stages start. But the Spurs backline is chronic.
For Liverpool, Moreno was MotM I reckon. Good performances from Henderson, Balotelli and Sturridge. Sterling was sterling, real nice goal. The new players did well, Can, Markovic and Manquillo.
Gerrard was a bit hit and miss.
Most disappointing was Lovren, diving in, hoofing balls, getting caught out of position... I actually think Sahko performed better beside him, despite the poor passing.
Supersave from Mig, clean sheet, easy win, ace weekend of result.
Watch as the British media make Aston Villa new favourites for 4th.
