    Win & 3 points main thing for me

    I didn’t expect us to play well as its been a long few weeks & the rest would have made us a bit lethargic.

    People saying Gini played really well not for me he held the ball for too long could have moved the ball forward quicker not saying he was poor by any means. Our midfielders in general could have played better.

    20 wins!
    Another big game next week & I will take another 1-0

    Firmino MOTM for me all day long, without him, no 3 points today

    Agree with Ginger, Gini was MOTM for me today. Mane was superb defensively but looked like he ran out of steam before being subbed. Thought Ox in particular was poor again. Henderson, TAA and Gomez didn’t have good games either in that 2nd half. So much for attacking Mourinho. At home and all they did for 80mins was sit back and try to hit us on the counter.

    I always thought Mourinho was gonna sit back and try to frustrate and maybe hit on the break.
    Mourinho is a busted flush. Football has moved on.
    At one point I forgot Ox was on the pitch, shortly after he was subbed. He didn’t play well.

    Another 3 points
    Another clean sheet
    16 points clear with a game in hand

    All about getting the 3 points and we did that. Their tactics were very negative as expected

    Massive win. Absolutely huge

    Since we have managed to be at the top with so many unjuiries since October then we deserve the title. Fatigue was shown in the 2nd half and it is very logical…

    Gini was probably MOTM, I think Alisson 2nd. Hendo and Gomez were very poor, Robertson was not great either. the amount of passes himself and some other over-cooked… It’s like we were nervy today and I even saw it in Van Dijk at one stage.

    the discussion about Gomez on here will likely go nuts. He’s been immense in every game until this …. utter shit. He was truly awful and he will want to respond to this in my opinion. Matip is coming back and it wasn’t until today that I thought he had even a 1% chance of taking his place back. Songman will no doubt be over the moon, well until he thinks about how bloody serious this could be next week.

    Mak, Massive bravery from Hendo for our goal. Could have got a boot in the face but was brave.

    Robbos worst game for a while but that’s going to happen.

    Huge win. Horrible place to go and a huge 3 points

    This is why clean sheets are so vital. 6 in a row now.

    Ginger, totally agree about Jose. This was the least concerned I’ve ever been of facing a jose team

    He just let us have the ball and waited for us to make a mistake. Imaging watching that kind of football?

    So negative and the man is finished

    I wouldnt say Gomez was utter shit but he was rather dodgy the first 30 min but then he grew into the role.So yeah I agree that this was one of his worst performances this season.

    But that being said, I really thought most of the team was very sub-par in this game.

    The problem with Gomez is we don’t know how he will fare against top opposition. He’s fine against Sheffield or a below par Leicester but against Son and Alli he looked iffy. Matip on the other hand has looked confident and played with authority these last few months, even against Messi and Suarez.

    For me Matip is the superior defender until age catches him. I would like Gomez to get six or seven starts until the end of the season if both are fit so as not to stunt his progress, but against the top dogs Matip should get the nod.

    And I’m not happy to be proven right (if at all) alongside Songman in rating the abilities of those two. I guess Klopp will have to solve this conundrum.

    What we know from history of how Klopp has been handling the centreback situation previously is that whoever has the shirt at the min and playing well continues to start the majority of games. I don’t see that changing.

    Mr Mak you say “Songman will no doubt be over the moon, well until he thinks about how bloody serious this could be next week.”

    Total rubbish, how did you come up with such a ludicrously incorrect conclusion about my thoughts on the match. Speak for yourself next time, and think before you post such nonsense.

    Look at my match comments yesterday, I said we had a “relatively poor performance”, but I didn’t single out any players for criticism, cause several were under par such as Henderson and Gomez.

    What matters to me above all else is we got 3 points

    Alison Becker, the way he beat Song to the ball out of his area when he was clear on goal. Anticipation, distribution, positional sense & solid between the sticks. The keeper we’ve needed for so long. Ynwa

    captkirk, quite right, just because I think Matip is the better defender, does not mean that I am happy if Gomez performs badly and I’m proven right.

    All that matters to me is that Liverpool win, regardless of who plays.

    Going forward, Klopp will choose who he thinks is the best defender to partner Van Dijk. And he rarely gets it wrong

    Gomez did pretty well against top opposition last season prior to his injury.

    Disagree about Mourinho, he has quite a few problems with this Spurs side. Had he been more bold, that would have played into our hands. Instead he was able to stay in the game (albeit somewhat helped by our 2nd half performance), and should have got a point. Don’t know how Le Celso missed that chance. Bit of a wake up call for us but obviously a big win.

    Leicester had a vardy in the form of his life and that’s top top opposition and Gomez didn’t give him
    A look in

    We made Leicester look poor , we were that good.,
