    Yes Danny, Nathan, Stu and Pierre ran a few miles today, it reminded me a bit of the Jay, Rickie and Adam days.

    Interesting to score from 3 headers too after none previously this season.

    Life under Pellegrino seems light years away after today.

    Danny Ings is a better player than I thought.

    I loved Ings' second goal. Beautifully placed into the corner.

    Emery still shocked after today’s result.

    We just need a way to keep him fit for the rest of the season now, he has always been a decent finisher.

    Yep, he says he loved his time under Klopp and no doubt it helped him hugely as a player.

    I've always liked him. Considering he's hardly ever scored a headed goal in the PL before today, his second goal was brilliantly taken.

    As I've said before, I reckon the international break did him the world of good, confidence-wise. Two wins from two for Scotland - and a play-off place for the Euros secured as a result - with him starting both matches.

    What (little) I saw of him before the international break I thought was quite 'meh'. What I've seen of him since the international break has really pleased me.

    Thank you to whoever posted footage of Johnson. He looks a very useful player. It would be wonderful if he could cement a first team place and become as good as, if not better than the great Lallana!!

    Sorry to temper the mood but a standout for me from the Hütt's post-match interview.

    "We have to stay focused because we know it will take until the end of the season to come out of this area we are in".

    We will play better than that and lose and worse than that and win....but we have a better chance of safety by playing more attacking football and as a team. Get back to playing like Saints is what we all want.

    Bedders didn't do his chances any harm today. He seems to possess something the others lack.
    Amazing cut out for a certain goal today, any other defender would have had that in the top corner!
