Remember watching the highlights that night - I think it was a mid week game.  That performance was as near to perfection as football gets.

  Never in doubt

1-0

Lucky to get away with that. West Ham missed a couple of great chances, while Liverpool weren't great going forward.

Antonio and, when he came on, Benrahma, caused Liverpool all kinds of problems on the break.

V poor decision makin with the shots tonite - much many blocks were there?? 3 points the main thing, now hmon utd as i always say 😃

  Never in doubt   

Klopps team selections and substitutions the last week were for todays and Tuesdays game. Getting results in those competitions was a bonus.

Weird oul game that...West Ham didn't deserve to lose that but 3 points in he bag at this stage is all that matters

Think at a stage early on pool were threatening to run riot. Just didnt happen then w ham got their game going then she turned a bit nervy. Theyre a solid solid team credit to moyesiah who appeared to be a busted flush after a couple of failures

Good to have the weekend game before Man City (and win). It puts a small bit of pressure on them!

Liverpool have kept something in reserve for Inter Milan on tuesday. It wasn t impressive but they got the win today and that is what counts.

Just saw who both pool and city have left to play. Not great. Id guess pool need to bate city to have any chance 

From the old "big6" we have to play 4 of them, city only 1 (us). Sorry thats after tomorro. Like i say hmon utd. Weve a few of the matches at home, eve too. But still. Huge task

Man City have a couple of tricky away games, West Ham and Wolves.

Another season and another Manchester derby where Liverpool fans will be wanting Man United to win and Man United fans will be wanting Man City to win

Salah definitely not on his game

Salah definitely not on his game

Had the distraction of the AFCON mid-season. Losing that final has had to have affected him. Contract negotiations a distraction. Competition for places. Also he's a marked man anymore.

Klopp has navigated a very busy part of the season with many distractions rather well. With such disruption there are going to be players gaining and losing form.
