Just win. If we are to mount a serious title challenge, we have to beat teams like this. As many have said, there are no easy games in the Premier League. But against teams hovering in or above the relegation zone, it's imperative that we don't drop points against these teams. We did it against Burnley and it would be even more disappointing to do it against a Moyes managed side. There are always going to be blips. Burnley was one, but we can't afford to have too many.
Having said all that, I do think we will win. Maybe not easily, but we have enough to score a few against this mob. As much as I love Sturridge, I wouldn't change the front 3. They are playing quite well and just had a bit of an off day last week. Our Brazilian boys looked tired and that affected our fluency in the final third. Bobby and Phil will hopefully be back to their best this week and tear these a new one.
It is amazing that for all the barbs that Lallana had fired at him in his first season here, we look a poorer side when he isn't playing. I'll throw my hands in the air and admit that while I was excited to sign him (especially after watching him light it up for the Saints), he was quite ordinary in his first season here and I wondered if he would make the transition to a club with huge expectations. But he is like a new signing under Klopp. He just adds so much to the team. In attack and defence he is the perfect link player and now that he has added goals and more assists to his game again, WOW!. To me he is just as valuable as Coutinho. The sooner he is fit the better.
There is not a better sight in football at the moment than watching our beloved team in full flight. Some of our goals this year have been simply breathtaking. Lets hope we see Jurgen's beaming smile again as Firmino slams home our fourth on Saturday afternoon. Come to think of it, Jurgen's beaming smile is a decent sight as well.....
