What a fantastic match. Skrtel is a very naughty boy.
It’s Liverpool’s now to lose but with Chelsea at home and away to an in-form Crystal Palace (1 goal conceded in last 5) it won’t be easy.

Steven Gerrard at the final whistle... fucking hell. That rare breed. The pride that man instills in me in how he embodies our club is something that can't be bought.

Sterling is going be a super star for Liverpool (and maybe England)
Hendo - a warrior a bit unlucky, nothing malicious maybe, he's all heart.
Coutinho - sleek and assured
Suarez and Sturridge - sell em!
Sakho - I love watching him, his technique/stance looks crazy and yet he usually finds his man.
Everyone else did their bit even if it was a bit hectic at times
City have bought so many big fancy foreign names in the last few years yet it was Milner who really made the difference to them with some good old-fashioned English running, closing down and pressing.

James Milner to me epitomizes the difference between Manchester City and Liverpool. City use their English players as workhorses, to 'put in a shift' and create space for the real talented players from abroad. Brendan Rogers, on the other hand, trusts his homegrown players to play a skilful, intelligent, possession based game.
Shows what a fallacy it is that British players can't excel at the technical side of the game - with coaching and confidence Rogers has turned the likes of Jordan Henderson and Raheem Sterling into cultured players who want the ball and are brilliant positionally. At Man City they would have only played in the League Cup and then been sent out on loan with their confidence shot and the belief they can't compete with better foreign players.
Ha ha ha lovely reading those comments now.
