    I got a while 5 mins, kids eh eh?

    So...... Lfc... Pretty weak really but a win is a good boost to our fight for premiership survival yeah?

    Leicester I don't get at all I thought they were a bit better than they've shown lately so I have to wonder if we will get anything there


    Lambert has basically now paid probably 50-60% of his fee already so I have to say seriously..... Those in the bench have to fight for a place and those on sick notes even more so

    If I see balotelli swan in to the starting 11 I'll go mad

    Anyway that's for another day.... Stoke have done better than that showing this year not sure why they were so poor today... Yes it was away but still

    Oh and I agree. There are a couple of right clowns that we've indulged for a while

    I mean some really are just fine and it's banter and some are just being silly and making themselves look dumb

    Bit worried that we're level on points with them. Depending on the result tomorrow, might not see Tobes until Tuesday

    This is true, has been for some time, too static at times, to reluctant to press high with lambert and in general not busy enough not shooting enough and not working well with lambert

    Henderson being put up there was like Rodgers read not 606 right before the ludo game cos I called for it, he didn't drop Gerrard, Johnson and mingolet mind

    All in all I feel coutinho is a lot better than he is giving and should look at oscar for his example. He must give far more energy and willingness to do the ugly work and take the risk pressing

    Today I think rodgers had 2 press and rest defend as instruction.... Bad bad bad needed at least 3 hassling thier back line

    If Balotelli comes back into the side to play alongside Lambert, I'd have no problems at all

    If he replaces Lambert I'd be furious

    Still plenty of problems that need sorting but plenty of positives from today as well. Fair play to johnson - most players wouldn't have dared to attempt that header

    Didnt see the game but great we won.

    Saw this. How did Lucas and Allen do? Worried about these two as Lucas after his ACL operation hasn't been the same and not convinced by Allen. Still think we need to give Can a chance.

    Answer is Lucas is improving a bit(missed a sitter mind) with games but Allen wasn't great.

    Overall ok but stoke played poorly too not sure it was cos these guys did all that great though

    Remind me again what Joe Allen does?? He's a nothing player. Have never rated him, never understood where Rodgers belief in him comes from (other than not double bagging it that one time), never got what he offers on the pitch, it's like having a ghost player... except a true ghost player could do stuff like haunt the opposition, stand on our line to help Mignolet and suddenly move the ball from the opposition's feet and ****.

    Wellllll he's a linker, he's a bit of a trier too.

    I'd have liked to see can against thier midfield but the lad ain't fit

    Allen is about moving the ball on.

    There was a point in the first half where he had comfortable possession in the right back area,and just ****ing dawdled on the ball like he was playing
    in the park with his mates.A player just came across and casually took it off him.It was actually funny to watch.Irritating but funny at the same time

    Looked like we were a bit more creative in and around the box today (2nd half only)

    Lots of one touch passing and moving to create space.

    Good anticipation from Johnson, think it's the quickest I've seen him run in 2 years <yikes>
