    TBF our 2nd half was very good aside from the defensive error

    I agree 100%. Wouldn't mind another good quality left back too, to compete with Enrique.

    We can't go dropping everyone after a bad performance.

    Toure has cost us 2 and nearly 4 points mind and needs to sort himself out.

    Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers: "Steven Gerrard is peerless in situations like that. He showed brilliant composure. It was a great result. We've had to show character to come form behind twice. A brilliant victory.

    "It's a great credit to Rene and his staff and players that we were given a very tough game. In the first half we were not quite on it in terms of intensity, and a mistake has put us 1-0 down. We then got a good goal, thanks to Gerrard's marvellous pass. We raised the intensity and aggression at half-time. We're disappointed with the second goal we gave away. This team has shown great characteristics mentally.

    "We conceded two goals, that has been unlike us for a while. We need to eradicate the individual errors. Thankfully we have goals in the team."

    I'm not saying that we should be winning the title or anything but I just hope we're still in touching distance when Chelsea and Man City come to Anfield ;)

    Make those games 6 pointers!!

    Brendan Rodgers: "We're going to keep pushing. We've shown enough times we're a very good side. We're chasing, other teams are still ahead of us. We need some of them to drop points. We know we still have Man City and Chelsea to play at home. We'll take it game by game. I'm enjoying as a coach watching the team improve."

    MOTD like the rest of BBC sport is Salford based now. Wrong club to blame for the bias, think more Manure

    I thought Phil Dowd had a terrible game tonight, pulled up both teams on so many occasions for nothing. One in particular was Sturridge running through, someone attempts to tackle him but falls.....Dowd gives a freekick to Fulham.

    I love how much Stevie seems to be genuinely enjoying himself, scoring and making vital goals in a good team!

    He's desperate to win the League!

    Thought we actually played half decent after the first 20 minutes.

    Created plenty of opportunities but unfortunately individual errors cost us and made our lives much harder than it should of been. But with that said, Rodgers has the marbles to put another AM on and it worked a treat, Tex looked great when he came on.. Exactly how a good debut under pressure should be.

    You can't steam role the opposition every game, sometimes you need to dig deep and trust in how you play - and we did that tonight up until the last minute and in the end got what we deserved. Three points, three goals.. Onwards and upwards.

    The classic was the time Riise shoulder charged Sturridge in their penalty area and came off second best and Dowd still gave a foul to Fulham! It was the cleanest shoulder charge all season. How Dowd gave the penalty I'll never know - it was too clear cut!
