    Oh I know that results went really well for us, I'm not complaining at all (when do I ever?:)).
    It's just that those 1-0, 0-0 last 15 minutes always shred my nerves and it's just a relief at the end. Also, after berating UIR for talking up his team's borefest of a win it would be hypocritical of me to do the same for us.

    Overall I'm content with the result and optimistic about the signs for the future, but as I said all last season- give me a 5-3 of the Suarez era over a dour 1-0 any day.

    Coukdnt agree more, although as a defender I do like to see the goals against column very low so a clean sheet and 1-0 is nice result.

    Give me 30odd more of those this season and I'll be happy come the end of the season (if the nerves don't give me a breakdown)

    Ah. I was a winger you see- in the days when wingers didn't even realise our team had a defence.

    As a left back, you were a pain... Either in my team or against.

    In my team leaving me 2v1 most of the game or against me by not tracking back meaning can't push on for fear of leaving big gap to exploit <grr>

    I'm left-footed so yeah, on your team I'd have been a pain. You're the defender so get on with it, win the ball and give it to me- don't expect help. <ok>

    You mean you think he was in it and it's all a cover-up?
    Who knows?- but thankfully he's not our problem any more so we can sit back and enjoy it.

    Sterling's not going to make it long term. The drug itself is mostly harmless but the attitude that he would constantly be using it proves he's a #bottler

    Looks like Rodgers dream formation. The cb is Lovren and the halfbacks offering little creativity.

    Pretty lacklustre performance /game bar the obvious moment of brilliance. However, it's tripped us up on a good few previous occasions, so good to negotiate it with 3 points and a clean sheet. Decent start <ok>
