We're the best football team in the land (when we can be arsed)

Is anyone really surprised by the performance?

Don't go and blow it now.

Dominant.. Should be 3 up

Coutinho alone could have had a hattrick.

Even Can has had a good game.

Dont know whether to laugh or cry.

Any other team and I would think game over but we have a habit of switching off. We need to get that 3rd and kill them off.

Tobelius · « **Reply #46 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:23:23 pm »

Immediately we look a different team when the opposition tries to attack us and that gives us the space to play. Keep it up reds!

Anfield Ed · « **Reply #47 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:23:53 pm »

Still think if Arsenal score next we we'll flounder and allow them back in. So we need to score next.

But the pleasure I can take from this performance is not good because of what we produced on Monday. I'm quite angry not happy or delighted in them. Angry that they can't produce this every week or can't perform like this against crap teams. So I am disappointed in these game raising players. Still I want to see how they react if Arsenal score next. to be honest we've been aided with the bizarre decision of Sanchez on their bench which will be rectified at half time probably.

Great 1st half, shows the importance of getting an early goal to destroy the oppositions game plan. We're killing them on the counter tho another goal would be nice to kill the game. Pls don't drop ur level and give them a sniff

Asam · « **Reply #49 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:23:58 pm »

Going to have a whinge because the last game is still on my mind....

Just shows how unprofessional they were against the weaker sides, will need to add 5-6 new players to add competition so we don't have to suffer the complacency next season

This performance is the level they need to maintain for the rest of the season

redalways · « **Reply #50 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:24:11 pm »

We are so quick in this game,

I keep thinking we've lost the ball only for it to turn up with Phil, Mane or Lallana.

Just brilliant. Weird that we can't get this level of play more consistently.

Good Gini has shown up today. Mane and Firmino fantastic.

I don't think it is a surprise this is not Klopp's complete team yet. He needs a few more signings and is just finding out what they this present squad can do. So for me its natural that we ebb and flow a bit. But when we're good we're exceptionally good, which is why I would hope people are a bit more patient with Klopp.

B0151? · « **Reply #52 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:24:16 pm »

Honestly, I'm not sure why people would be surprised. It was clear from the moment Klopp came in that he'll always get the team up and performing in the big games.

Studgotelli · « **Reply #53 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:24:27 pm »

Lallana amazing. Mane is something else. Clyne has given Welbeck nothing.

Why do we struggle against utter shit when we can play like this. Makes no sense.

Exactly the type of game that suits a lot of our players. Not a physical opponent, at home, big game for the show ponies. Two lovely goals that prove how good we can be.
2-0.
Anyone confident that the three points are in the bag?
No?Me either.

One more goal and we kill them off, although I can see us getting a couple or more in the second half.

Surely there isn't another sports team in the world that screws with your emotions as much as ours ?!!

Igor Tripod Biscan · « **Reply #56 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:25:12 pm »

Should be 4 up

Klopp out
FSG need to back the manager and buy some decent players

Fantastic flowing football here.

Can playing well

all over the place

chromed · « **Reply #59 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:25:21 pm »

Absolutely made up so far, but it's so frustrating because if we could play like this every week we'd be bang in a title race right now.

Keep it up reds, it's sumptuous stuff.

jdegner · « **Reply #60 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:25:22 pm »

Brilliant. The little magician almost did Suarez against Newcastle with that first touch from above! Keep going Reds, they suck.

Zoomers · « **Reply #61 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:25:53 pm »

Why the fuck are they showing shit from the United game. Focus on LIVERPOOL BIG DICK FC.

Even Can has had a good game.

Dont know whether to laugh or cry.

He's been infuriatingly getting beaten in the air by tiny Arsenal players. He should be thanking his lucky stars he has the all rampaging and battling Lallana in front of him.

Along with Mane, he's been utterly brilliant.

BEAST · « **Reply #63 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:26:58 pm »

next years team should be built around Mane Coutinho and Lallana.

Everything else is up for negotiation.

Zlen · « **Reply #64 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:27:26 pm »

Just glanced at the result.
Predictably good, since it's a big team and we're at home.

Jesus Christ this team pisses the sweet fuck out of me.

Pie Eyed · « **Reply #65 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:27:29 pm »

We need to forget other results.

Just enjoy today for what it is (or at least what it has been, so far).

Fuck the Leicester result - They were always going to bounce after sacking the manager.

Fuck Burnley - We only care about them when we actually play them.

Just concentrate on today and worry about the next match next.

As for me - Thoroughly immpressed and thoroughly enjoying this so far.

Let's just keep it going for the second half please.

BlackandWhitePaul · « **Reply #66 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:27:55 pm »

We are 2-0 up at half time in our game as well

Omygoditsomar · « **Reply #67 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:28:20 pm »

Arsenal move like Stephen hawking we're like Benny hill

Chris~ · « **Reply #68 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:28:20 pm »

Playing really well in a match suited for us. Good thing is we're consistently good in these big matches, we've got a winning formula for them.

Hopefully a horribly messy half like the Spurs and City games to kill this off.

Is it unprofessional or is the the players / gameplan isn't optimal for weaker sides?

You see how hard guys like Mane and Lallana work and you wouldn't accuse them of being lazy. I think there's more to it than saying they're unprofessional.

Zeb · « **Reply #70 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:28:55 pm »

Hahahaha.

Let's have the three points then please if we're going to do this.

JackWard33 · « **Reply #71 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:29:18 pm »

Not sure why people aren't enjoying this more. I mean Leicester was terrible but that first half was a sensational display.
Oh and we're 3rd if we win today
If you don't enjoy it when we play well and just get pissed off about the times we dont....not sure what the point of following a team is??!

For the big games I'd still be happy rolling out a very similar side with maybe a couple changes, it works very well with firmino up front.

Just don't let them back into it whatever we do, they'll have chances.

As weird as this might sound, we have just as much chance of finishing the league as runners up, as we do of finishing in 6th

SerbianScouser · « **Reply #78 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:30:01 pm »

Alexis change means they'll hoof less and have to pass out from the back more which will give us even more opportunities to dispossess them in their own half and score more goals.

Gerry83 · « **Reply #79 on:** March 4, 2017, 06:30:04 pm »

Its painfully obvious why we dont produce the goods game in game out. The teams we lose to sit with 2 banks of 4 (at least). Arsenal are all over the show. I'm not getting carried away.. as like Spurs theyre the ideal type of team for us. They attack, leave space and we exploit. You can bet if this was West Brom or some other shite James Milner and Clyne would have had 80% of our teams possession.
