Where's leivapool, bet she enjoyed the match.
I'm here, just catching up on reading this thread, and I must say it has been a very enjoyable experience
Had tickets for this so saw for myself how good Lucas was today. It's quite hard to articulate just how important he was. As impressive as they are, the stats don't really sum up his dominance over a Man City midfield containing some highly rated players. Lucas really was that good today.
One thing I did notice, something that has only recently started to show, is how influential Lucas is in the organisation of the team in both attacking and defensive situations. When we have corners etc, it is Lucas who makes sure all the opposition players are marked, and only if they are will he venture forward to get in to the penalty area. And in defence he is constantly pointing and telling those around him where to go when he knows he will get dragged out of position, to ensure they cover him. They don't always, but he knows where they should be.
The lad was brilliant today, it's hard to put in to words. I thought Agger was also excellent. As others have said, Agger, Lucas, Suarez, Gerrard, world class players, indespensible to the team.
