Because if Clive Tyldesley, I counted the passes in that move. We broke 30!

For a few minutes it was like we’d never concede possession ever again. Pass and move, it’s the Liverpool groove.

 

FELIZ NABY LAD!

[dizogg]

Great result, piece of piss. Fans back, Kelleher an absolute wall and surely our new number 2, Trent back and in the assists, front 3 productive. Boom.

[bradigor]

That was a complete performance. Coupled with my U14 team winning 6-2 after a forced lockdown break. Been a good day 

[Azrael]

Good stuff, didn't feel worried at all during that game which was nice. Some great goals, good to have the fans back and seeing TAA and Keita return. And Ally McCoist still showing he's the best commentator currently about. 

[bradigor]

Klopp is beaming.

[Adrock]

Very happy for Williams tonight, I suggested he needed to improve on Wednesday and it started midweek. Today despite the early yellow he was excellent and grew in confidence throughout the game. He isn't as forward thinking as Alexander Arnold at the moment but he was beginning to get forward more frequently later in the game.

Curtis Jones has been brilliant, looks like he has been playing in the team for a long time.

It’s testament to the team’s current organisation and the Academy how well he slots into the side; he looks so assured. Our midfield isn’t perhaps as eye-catching as others, but has to be versatile and high-energy, and Jones meets those requirements with aplomb.

What a guy

[gospvg]

It was so good seeing this at the end of the match.

 

[Stig]

8 months of pent up frustration released in 3 massive fist pumps.

Read an interesting point in a match report about yesterday’s game. Essentially, because the players didn’t get to celebrate with fans after finally winning the league, having them back now adds a timely boost in terms of the squads mentality and chasing something they missed out on.

 

It was also nice to see Klopp beaming again, he’s been a bit grumpy this season.

[Swallow]

No no no, haven't you heard they're back on the caffeine pills and asthma inhalers.

 Still, even with the injuries only a series of very unfair VAR decisions have stopped the team being comfortably on top. Imagine where they’d be with something to chase too? 

[glb]

Seeing fans back and Klopp doing his celebration was a huge lift.

 

Great the club can play a complete second string in Europe this week knowing the group is won, so the front four, Gini and a few others can have a few days off ahead of the domestic December schedule. Top or thereabouts come January 1st and there's every reason to be confident, especially knowing this squad has been exceptional in the past two run-ins.

 

And Thiago still to properly make an impact, rather than having an impact made on him.

[Stig]

Salah is so great isn't he and yet it still feels like he's so underappreciated.

 

also how amazing is it to have 2 of the top 5 forwards of the PL era in the same team.

[ryodi]

I think it’s because he’s part of a great team and isn’t carrying it in the same way Owen, Suarez and Torres had to during their time at the club.

Who’s Clarkson?

Jeremy. He's promoting the new episode of The Grand Tour.

 

(Leighton. Academy prospect. 19. I've got cheeses older than him)

[DukeOfEarlsfield]

I’d actually quite enjoy watching Klopp deploy Jeremy Clarkson as our box to box midfielder. He’d be coughing up a lung within five minutes and Klopp would yell and throw things at him for being constantly out of position, eventually replacing him on the twenty minute mark when he drops down dead. Although not before Firmino manages to play a one-two off his lifeless body.

[CheekyLee]

Early kick-off nearly caught me out. It was only because my girlfriend asked me "Are you not watching?", having heard them talk about it on 5 Live that I realised waht time we were playing.

 

Minamino hat-trick, please!

He'd be our Ali Dia!

 

That might be the worst goal Mo has ever scored

[dizogg]

Fucksake Salah I was still pouring my beer!

[CheekyLee]

Fabinho really is different gravy.

[glb]

State of that overhead kick I thought Jeremy Clarkson was playing.

A VVD Fabinho CB pairing would actually be illegal in 42 countries. In the ones where its permitted Klopp could play a small houseplant in net and not worry about conceding.

[bradigor]

Now has to be the youngest combined back four to play in a top tier European game.

[ryodi]

VAR back to normal then. 

[CheekyLee]

There is no place in the universe far enough away for VAR to fuck off to.

[bradigor]

What the fuck? He was offside was he not?

[Stig]

I'm at a loss there on how thats been given. Lino flags and they don't even check the offside.
