We had our strongest team today, and put six past the worst team in the league.

Lol it's the first post match thread in ages.
Our season has been that terrible.
Our season has been that terrible.
Almost our strongest team, but Toure and arguably Sakho wouldnt be in it.
Let's talk about Studge.
I bet if that was Benteke with that one on one, he would of missed it..
Have.
That's not really saying much though is it, since he's had about 4 one on one chances this season and missed them all.
Daniel Sturridge has the best minutes per goal ratio of any Liverpool player in Premier League history (118 mins per goal).
My wife asked what the hell I was doing waving my arms about in the kitchen. She was not particularly impressed when I explained it was the Sturridge dance.
- healthy studge makes our team look much better - he's a proper striker who's always in the right place in the box. I really really hope he stays fit, and that the Euros don't cock it up for him, and he'll start next season flying ... He's key to this team.
- Chemistry between Coutinho/Studge/Firmino was a pleasure to watch.
- Don't like the midfield 3 of Can/Henderson/Milner but it's probably the best we've got for the time being.
- Props to Klopp for throwing Stewart on ... Rewarding him nicely for his performance against the Hammers.
- Origi ... He's really come along nicely under Klopp. He has all the tools to be a fucking great player ... as Dmish I think called after his WC performance.
That's the first time Coutinho, Studge and Firmino lined up together and it was mouthwatering to see.

Is it wrong to say I want villa to stay up?
I always liked Villa. Fowler seemed to score at least one against them everytime he played, Owen also had a great record against them, fuck even Carragher scored against them.

Did you see the excuse he gave?
His phone was in his pocket and it tweeted it by mistake.
I think that is taking it a bit too far. We have played better against City and others at times when we had the three of Coutinho, Firminio, and Lallana. Some of Studge's passing was a little off during that game but he showed that anticipation in a striker for that first goal - we have been clearly lacking that up front.
Hard to know how good that performance was as Villa were so utterly hopeless ! Am beginning to like Firmino more and more, he is getting better and looked great today with a decent striker in front of him. His workrate is really excellent, he is like the duracel bunny and is always closing down when we are off the ball. Hope he keeps up this trajectory of improvement because he will be great next season
Hasn't he only ever played 118 minutes in total?
