We just passed a test we failed before

[localny]

By winning a game we should win, on the back of a few bad results, against a team that was coming back into the game. We didn't sit back; we pressed, Mignolet set up the third goal, with his quick distribution. And then there's Sturridge, a player you can genuinely admire without reservation or concern. He's my new Jari Lithmanen.

 

[gkmacca]

Yeth.

 

[RolandG]

Boss result and much needed.

 

[doctor_mac]

Yeah, season could really have completely lost momentum with a poor result. We're still only playing well in patches and haven't properly controlled a half since Aston Villa away (1st half). But Suarez coming back has given us new belief and Studge and him combined brilliantly at times today.

And for the record, Toure is an absolute boss!

We haven't yet strung together a 90 minute performance. The day that happens, some team will be on a hiding to nothing. Hope its against Spurs or Arsenal.

 

[Judge Jules]

For ages we've been capable of beating anybody on our day. What champions have to do is learn how to win even when it doesn't look like their day. We're starting to do that and it's majorly encouraging IMO.

I agree with that JJ. It would be nice to bully a team and completely control a game though. Us winning a game without instigating heart palpitations is something that I dearly wish for.

Too many times in the past we would have drawn ta game like this. We need that killer instinct to finish off the opposition. Good result and morale boost for the lads. Now to take it to the next level.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Nice to take advantage of our rivals misfortune for a change.

 

[Jürgen4PM]

I'm still yet to see a convincing display from us this season. The jury is still out for me on wether we've improved or just got a bit lucky.

 

[dee]

A draw for the Geordies tomorrow will put the Scum 13th

Oh how deliriously wonderful that will be. Make the most of it, sadly it won't last

 

[localny]

One game at a time, we'll see how we're doing, but the good news is that this time it feels different; we've a better mentality, some better players, and finally finally, after the Hicks, Gillette, and Kennoli era misfortunes, we may be back on track.

The fact that no team is predictable for the title this year, makes everything feel more possible.

Can't you be one, one week, and another, another? 😉

 

[doctor_mac]

We deffo have been a bit lucky this season. But equally, we've had shite luck for a few seasons so we're due it.

Which "we" are you talking about actually?

 

[Hansern]

Indeed. 8 more points and 9 goals better off then last season is an improvement regardless of a bit of luck.
We're turning into a team thats hard to beat, which is a massive difference to the Liverpool team of a few seasons ago.

 

[Spionkop69]

Nice to take advantage of our rivals misfortune for a change.

Indeed. We usually totally fuck it up when others lose. Notice I didn't say rivals..

 

[doctor_mac]

I have to say Utd have looked 'lucky' since forever. I was convinced that Ferguson had sold his soul to the devil for the luck of them at times. Hopefully Brodgers has cashed in on his dirty Carnlough soul.

 

[6TimesaRed]

Looking forward to watching this later..


I was looking @ twitter feeds and the match thread at certain points during the day whilst at Alton Towers with the family...

Got a little bit anxious @ 2-1 Twitter feeds gave the impression we where on the back foot.. then long behold Suarez scores..

Get in.. great result.. much needed and back on track... Its been a while since we have managed to take advantage of results 'going our way'

 

[gene hughes]

Long behold? Can we add this to our list?

 

[Woland]

I told you whining maggots to chill out.

While I'm happy we won I'm not putting up with this bullshit next weekend.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Long behold? Can we add this to our list?

Definitely. I'm still hungover after a free booze party, so can't remember the others, apart from the genius 'pre-madonna'.

 

[Woland]

These things are a diamond dozen.

 

[gene hughes]

That's a moo point Woland.

 

[Woland]

Perhaps, for all intensive purposes.

 

[Buddha]

Just think how strong we'd have looked + a Costa/Mkhitarian.

If we add a similar player in january we'll be cooking.

 

[Mamma Mia]

I'm waiting on tender hooks for the next gag. Poor the RedNinja. #escapegoat

 

[Dreambeliever]

3-5-2 is very worrying considering our CM.

But extremely happy to have 13/18 points considering we haven't had 1 good 90 mins and only 1 good 45 mins.

Once we actually start playing well we will be unstoppable.

 

[Markeh]

moo point 😀

Now we know why we were prepared to pay big money for him. Our defence is damn good, our attack maybe the best in the league and had we secured Miki then the team would be fucking superb. Imagine a player of that quality/style in our MF instead of Henderson and with Moses/Countinho out wide.
