Don't think have a bad word to say about anyone in today's performance so far... Only Clyne who left Bojan for that corner
 
The goal was scored by Ibe, assisted by Allen

Meanwhile numerous chances wasted by Coutinho, Lallana, Firmino

Just saying

Milner down the right don't forget.

But really they've done OK. Lots and lots of space to play in.

Now the subs are on stoke can come out with a plan in the second half so we really have to do well in second half here.

Big test coming.
 
So in general.

1. We've controlled midfield with 3 guys in there and stores front 4 have left Cameron and whelans to it so we've bossed it.

2. Some passing has been faster. Can and ibe have held it a bit long still. Lallana wants touches as well.

3. Front 3 pressed much better and in unison just like klopp wants.

4. Stoke haven't the talent to beat the first line. Stoke have played into our hands at times but there is much more positivity in where press comes on and sprinting into it.

5. Seeing more bodies about the box. Still not seeing many chances.
 
[HASHTAG]#bbcsalford[/HASHTAG] are furious with Stoke and trying to give them tactical advice to get into the game
 
Think Allen has made the difference for you so far, he is playing well in mid field, pressing well (why Rodgers bought him) and more importantly, getting into the box to create space for, and support the attackers
