re: OFFICIAL LFC 16/17 Season Long Thread - Piss off, Gunners!!

Y'all should just recall Ward

Lallana was a one man wrecking crew. Appears Wijnaldum had a great game as well.

Also, result today pushes us back up to 2nd place (6 pts back of Chelsea)... I know a title run isn't likely, but I do like being in this part of the table compared to where we have been lately

They have one of the best defenses in the league.

I guessed correctly and DVRed the correct game.

Obviously 3-0 was pretty good. You'd take that any day of the week. But for much of the match, the game-play seemed closer. Perhaps that's just an away match for you. We had more possession, but at lot of times didn't seem to do much with it. They put us under pressure at times - especially right after our first goal we couldn't seem to hold onto the ball ( I think we had 35% possession for the ten minutes after the goal according to a stat on the screen?)

Overall - Migs played pretty well. Made one good save - but it was a save I would expect a good GK to make. He wasn't a liability though and that's a plus.

Klavan isn't perfect, but he may be a perfect 3/4 CB - seemingly doesn't complain about PT. Steps right in when needed, etc. If only he was able to play both sides...

Lallana was excellent - lots of runs into space and movment. He's clearly been put in a position that he can exel in.

Firmino - clearly the move to the left has been determental to his scoring . His movement is still excellent though and he does a lot of little things. But you just wish he was able to put more end product together.

Origi - 5 straight games with a goal. And an assist yesterday. It seems to me though that he still drifts in and out and a lot of times just isn't on the same page as others - late picking up the thought process. He always seems to miss a good chance too. If he can put that together fully though he'll be incredible.

Mane - seemed a bit more like his old self. Dangerous and aggressive. He's had a few games lately where he seemed a bit off.

Wij - he does a lot of neat quick interplay passes with other players where the end result is he or the other player moving forward in space with the ball. I saw it twice that I can remember yesterday.

I thought the movement of the front 3 in the second half was the best it's been since Coutinho got injured.

Yay clean sheet! even if it was just Boro

I just watched it again and agree about the second half. Very dangerous and fluid as hell.

stoked! need 3 pts to keep the pace..

Glad to see Studge on the bench. We need attacking depth.

Yep, defense was good keeping Lukaku in check.

Mane was brilliant to get to that, and I hope today gives Studge some confidence moving forward.

Barkley should have been off, but I'll take the 3 pts and really am glad Hendo is okay
