Absolutely electric start and then a display of total control.  It reminded me of when we dismantled Man U then went into ball retention mode after Pogba was sent off.

A surprising cameo from Musiałowski.  I thought after all his injuries that we'd never see him anywhere near the first team.  Hopefully a confidence booster for him.

Clark looked like he might have picked up a knock but otherwise no injuries!

Really not worried about any of the remaining teams.

If we drew any of those teams in the quarters of the champions league we’d all be confident of an easy draw. Leverkusen included.

We are miles better than every team left in the competition simply because we are a champions league team and the majority of these are not.

Great run out for the lads tonight. Let’s hope to see something similar at the weekend

A comfortable and efficient display. I was hoping to see Danns again but it was not to be. I think from about 60 minutes inwards we were solely interested in preventing injuries which dampened the pace of the match a bit. Good display, good win and a nice goal at Anfield for Clark.

A comfortable win. Was surprised we played such a strong lineup. No doubts about the ability and they deliverd. A dominant performance with goals for the front three, Clark and Szoboszlai. Good stuff!

It'd be a shame if we end up with pricks turning up in the quarters or semis. The away fans have been great here this season in Europe and get a good welcome in the city. Not to mention us having to run the gauntlet in Rome or France.

Benfica are always sound. Leverkusen would be. Milan are okay. West Ham aren't that bad with us usually.

Good gesture to Musialowski to get him game time at a full Anfield in Europe. He's missed out on first team minutes in the past with injuries and been here a while. I suspect he'll move on in the summer.

I know it's dull, but I think West ham at this stage would be OK, more chance to see the likes of roma get knocked out than having to face their fans on home turf.

Honestly they’re all week compared to us … just hope to avoid a draw where the traveling fans would be endangered
Maybe Leverkusen can give us a game … maybe. - but the rest won’t touch us over 2 legs

The Velodrome is a tough place to go. As long as we respect the remaining teams away from home, we have a great chance.

Obviously an easy draw tomorrow which will be a bye into the semis.

Lovely little game of togger that, boss little atmosphere, multiple scorers, what's not to love Reds.

The away fans were annoyingly entertaining - annoying in the sense that you'd find yourself glancing over at the mad bastards every couple of minutes.
All sound though.

I reckon most of them missed their goal because they were too busy playing catch with a ball that had gone in to their end.

The Ref was ok until he got a cob on with Jurgen because Jurgen got a cob on with him for being a prick.

Hope everyone there had a lovely time.
A special day indeed.

Yeah (at home) but we have to respect the difference between playing at home vs away. We need to play a very strong 11 all through now. The kids can get 5-10 minutes if we're comfortable.

Who was on crutches on the sidelines waiting for all the players to come off? I couldn’t see but I wasn’t sure if it was Danns.

Danns was on the bench, so feels unlikely.

Not seen it, but wondering about the current injured players who it could be, could it be Matip (if tall). Otherwise Thiago or Jota both might be using crutches with their injuries
