GET IN!!!!!

[J70]

Where the hell has this performance been for the past month? Its NOT rocket science. Just a bit of effort and guts, wanting to press the opposition and getting on the ball. Great games from Lucas, Lambert,  Sterling and Coutinho. Hopefully they hold out now.

Far better in the second half. Was more like the Liverpool of last season. They closed Stoke down not giving them any time on the ball and put together some great moves.Looked to have a bit more fight and passion in them as well which was great to see.
Fully deserved the goal even if Stoke had a few chances themselves.
That was a nerve wracking 7 mins of injury time!
Glen Johnson... never doubted him 

btw Bojan is a fine player. Wasted at Stoke. Great shot from him but an equally great save from Mignolet at the end there.

Needed that, still poor in places but a big improvement on recent games overall. I have been a critic of Johnsons attitude in the past but fair play, he got stuck in for the goal.

A few nice one touch moves aroundthe box today but still lacking a predator on the end of them.
Top half by Christmas!

Will the Liverpool players take the field tonight wearing t shirts in support of Mario?

Actually going the full hog and wearing super mario outfits, which will be topical.

Didn't realise this game was on BT sports, so that's a bonus.

You only get a t-shirt protest if you don't apologise.

Or if you have nothing to apologise for.....

Glen Johnson... never doubted him 

The scary thing about Glen Johnson's bravery in, Kevin Moran-style, flinging his head in where other players would be reluctant to put their boot, is that it suggests he has been trying all this time...

I know,  imagine trying when the transfer window is coming up and you can agree a pre-contract agreement on a nice fat wage or renew your contract on a nice fat wage!  A cynical man could be very cynical.

Yes, just as well we are not cynical!!

See the club has gone even Messi-er than before

A host of top clubs around Europe are said to be interested in signing Irish-born Zak Gilsenan and according to today's Star, he has opted for Merseyside after his family decided to move to England.

Gilsenan is originally from Castleknock but moved to Australia due to the work commitments of his father. He hit the headlines when he was just nine years of age when he bagged seven goals in a trial game, a feat that earned him a two-year stay at Barcelona in the same academy that produced a certain Lionel Messi.

At that time, Zak's father Stephen said: "We were living in Australia when Zak was spotted by Spurs, who were running football camps over there. We came home with the intention of letting Zak go to Spurs, but in the meantime we had a call from Barcelona.

"One of their former players saw him playing in Oz and recommended him. They offered Zak a trial in May and it was a great experience. It consisted of over 400 boys from all over the world. He was asked back in June when it was cut down to 90.

"Then in a match between the top 16 players, Zak just ran riot and scored seven goals. He was phenomenal. Then we heard back two weeks ago and they offered him a spot."

Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal, as well as a host of European clubs, are reportedly interested in signing the Dubliner but it now looks like it's Liverpool who have won the race to recruit Ireland's hottest young prospect.

Not the sharpest tool in the box is he!
