1) Great win
2) Bradley must wish he could play RM every week.
3) that's the way I expect us to play, everything about it was brilliant.
4) slot must stick with the team and tactics there is no need to chop and change. the crowd singing his name as an approval of what they seeing must show him that.
5) can someone tell isak he's our 2nd choice
6) I don't want to pee on anyone's parade but mamma got to start practicing his distribution, it's terrible or expect to be sold.
7) haha Trent glad you was booed glad for the Gerrard chant and glad the best player on the pitch was YOUR replacement.

I agree with most of that but Isak and Ekitike will both play their part. No need to have a first and second choice. Isak is the better player of the two though by far. Ekitike needs to get his head up and release the ball earlier he missed some great opportunities to put people in tonight by holding the ball too long.
I don’t understand the idea that Marma’s distribution is poor either. He pinged some lovely balls out to Salah and mostly played it short and accurately. There was the odd hoof but Ali does that too and quite often kicks it straight out of play. He’s not brilliant with the ball at his feet but he’s far from poor.
It was a great performance we didn’t give them a second to breath, we now have to do the same against City.

Neither Hugo or Alexander (solid working class lads 😉) is going to play 60+ games in this, or any other season. Having one CF in the squad is ridiculous, sorry it just is - irrespective of the number of games there is also inevitable injuries and also loss of form.
With the best will in the world, the two CFs we have now are an improvement on everything since the departure of Sadio and Bobby.
The extra benefit Hugo brings is that he can also play out wide, which means we can accommodate both in the starting 11 if Slot wishes to do so.

Robbo - Mama played some good passes today. Generally it isn't a strength for him, but just more positive steps forwards for him.

I thought same about Mama Faith. He's got a fantastic long kick in his locker; just needs to be more accurate.

Just shows what a change of tactics can do Scouse John and a bit of intensity.
Hopefully this knocking the ball around the back for possession sake is resigned to the dust bin.

I hope so Irish, that’s the best we’ve played under slot.

Exactly, Faith. Marma has improved his kicking of late in the past 2 games. Not perfect but he can ping them into the area the target player is. Just needs to keep working on it and other parts of his game cos he is immensely talented, IMO.
