Was at the game yesterday and now reflecting on it we were fantastic but how bad were Liverpool?
I find it hard to believe they were genuinely that bad. Did they throw the game or has Rodgers lost the dressing room?
Still the record books show 6-1 and we did put arsenal and Tottenham to the sword.

We just targeted their weak spots and exploited them. It turns out ther weak spots are anywhere on a football pitch.

To suggest that they threw the game is ridiculous and a bit insulting to us imo, we played excellent and took our chances and they were poor, that simple really!

Ahem. We were brilliant, exploited their weak spots, and utterly kicked their arse.
Nothing to do with whether they were shit or otherwise, we went out there and kicked their collective fat scouse arse. That's all there is to it.

The only fishy thing about yesterday was that it half looked like we allowed Gerrard to score.
That was every bit the tonking that we've been threatening To dole out for some time.

We were on the front foot from the off. Superb football played yesterday, and if we hadn't taken our foot off the gas, it would have been more!

He started the game with 1 full back, 7 central midfielders, no winger and no striker.
They aren't going to look great are they?
It was a horrible starting XI and it was no surprise that when he put a striker and a winger on they got much better. Ibe in particular was excellent.

The way Llalana and Skertl were constantly flexing I doubt they threw it.
Ridiculous thread.

We just targeted their weak spots and exploited them. It turns out ther weak spots are anywhere on a football pitch. I agree, For me this is particularly true of Arnie. If he knows that he has the beating of his full back he simply revels in it. I think Hughes is excellent at raising players ' confidence and backing them. (My only reservation is his approach to Huthy) |

We set the tone in the first minute when Walters beat Sakho in the air and clobbered him in the process. They were absolutely terrified of Walters and I don't think I've ever seen such piss weak defenders.

They were absolutely terrified of Walters and I don't think I've ever seen such piss weak defenders. We'd had a player booked early in the game. Less than a minute later, Walters mangled one of their players, as if to say ''You didn't think that would stop us, did you'. |

They were out to park the bus......pity they forgot the handbrake! I don't even think it was that tbh. I think Brenda thinks he's Pep Guardiola and genuinely thought it could work with Coutinho as a false 9 and midfielders running off him. Of course they had no focal point and it was no surprise that once they did they looked ok. |

Seems to me that we had another manager who thought they were playing against Stoke City circa 2008.
We exploited it against Spurs, but we exploited it even further yesterday.

Having watched it again it looks like Hughes spotted a weakness at right back in Emre Cann and we exploited that weakness at least 4 times lol

Fishy?
The only thing fishy about yesterday was the stink coming from the Liverpool technical area.
I seriously hope 'Brenton' is still there next season...
