We passed it so well, for me Shelvey and Henderson had a good understanding today. Suso was good, Assaidi looks promising, Wisdom as well massive player to be. Who said we can't score goals? That's 5 from a back up team!
All of the opponents goals were down to defensive errors except the last one. The first two can be attributed to Carragher, which is a good thing for us because it means our prospects are not making errors.
The approach to the game was fantastic, we can move it around so well. Still room for improvement but I was properly proud of the performance. We showed technical class, but also true grit to fight back and kill the game off.
Very excited for the future, but also the present. We have a clever group of players who are all progressing. It shows players don't make the team, it's the team that make the players. Rodgers has us playing smartly and it means even young inexperienced players like Wisdom or Suso can excel.
I am a happy man. Do we agree?
How good were we tonight?!

Agree with everything you say except for the blaming of Carra for the first 2...he has his moments but he is becoming far too much of a scapegoat IMO...as a goalkeeper myself Brad Jones has to come and clear out everything infront of him for the first or Enrique needs to clear his lines much better...and the 2nd he wasn't anywhere near the cross it was either Coates' or Wisdoms ball to win.
Shelvey and Henderson were brilliant but I thought Nuri went about his business in a quietly calm and composed manner.
Bring on United!

The major reason IMO why we are not scoring enough goals is because
a) the midfield is not mobile enough to support the attack
b) Suarez's continous hogging of the ball and greediness/shelfishness. I think he actually breaks down attacks
Shelvey should be playing a major role against Utd cos he changed the game today.
