Im gonna kill myself now but lucas had a very good game

brilliant perforance mate,great result but i wouldn't go as far as to say Lucas had a very good game. neither did mahsa which i'm totally sure will will improve as the season goes on.

please beleive me when i say that i really want Lucas to play with the confidence Raffa has shown in him,but still say in really difficult games especially away from home,he just doesnt inspire me he is up for the job. ie- tonight he didn't know weather to go foward or stay back an try to play the defensive role in middfield etc. his lack of vision an trying to make an impact in the game will always be his down fall.

aside from that fecking made up with the result, we made a great start an for me hopefully puts the results of last season behind us. we needed to batter stoke tonight an done it so brilliant result.

does anyone else agree with me also yossi was brilliant tonight an deserved a goal. he really has shown such great attitude,also desire to provide chances & create them for himself that i'm made up Raffa chose him ahead of babel tonight- he said it all for me! if babel wants to even make a challenge for a first team place he need look no futher than yossi.

one final point about tonights's game concerning Lucas- when set up a treat early on in the game i was on the edge of my seat begging him to score -alas he hit it straight at the keeper.

apart from that i stil say he is out of his depth,but will enjoy the alround performance an result tonight!

Happy for NGog to get a goal too. If he can keep coming on and getting odd goals here and there it will do his confidence a world of good. Although id like to see him get more of the ball with his feet too like his goal against PSV.

not to be one to jump on a bandwagon but Glen Johnson looks f*ckiing immense.

Gerrards touch to take him away from the defender for the third goal was sublime

Kuyt and N'Gog are clinical inside 4 yards

Watching Stoke at set-plays is like having your eyeballs raped by a camel

Robbie Blake will never strike a ball as sweetly in his entire life, and everything is his life from this moment was be an anti-climax

I have Jermaine Defoe in my dream team. I also have Sebastian Bassong :lookaround

Agree Hasey lad - esp. Benny's performance. No way can Babel play ahead of Benny.

we looked ok tonight, a bit more like a team, the back 4 still have stuff to work on.

by the way i i ever by a football team i would change its name to BPW...why? well the teams that start with that always seem to upset the bigger teams lol.

thanks mate,so glad someone else agree's with my view that yossi deserves his place in the starting line up. his attitude is a credit to him, i really believe he will be a massive player for us this season - home an away! others in the side can an should learn alot from his style of play. throughout the game tonight he played the 1-2 etc which i really love to watch, also as a result of his awarness around brought other players into our attacking play aswell.

johnson had a briliant debut at anfield,but for me jossi made so many things happen tonight he get's the nod for me.

also love his attitude, he really appitimiseses team spirit!

Gotta say mate - most people on here wanted Benny to start ahead of Babel too.

Despite his poor performance on the weekend I thought we might see Babel at some point. But in the end I was glad we brought on NGog.

Now that's more like it!

Some really fine performances and a special mention to Reina for a fantastic save at a crucial time. We did not need to let them back into the game right after the re-start. The worry was how flat we seemed for the mid-part of the first half. But, the lads grew in composure as the 2nd half progressed and started to look much more like the Liverpool of last season. Johnson looks like he's been playing in front of the Kop for years and credit to the lad Ayala for keeping his cool and doing his job well. :cool:

We deserved the win. We can play a lot better but it's a start and a message were not going to sit back on laurels and watch teams get draws against us! Really want Reira to start against Aston Villa but Yossi to play behind torres.

What a difference a few days can make in football eh! I've only seeen the highlights on MOTD but it looked like a good performance from all the lads plus some outstanding performances from Yossi, Johnson and our Captain Fantastic. We certainly look well equipped to deal with the bus-parkers this season. We've got quite a nice balance on the flanks with Dirk and Yossi cutting inside and two fullbacks in Johnson and Insua who like to get forward. No doubt we're gonna miss Xabi like hell this season but if Johnson and Yossi can turn in performances like that on a regular basis we could be on to something here. It was an absolutely fantastic debut performance from johnson and Yossi seems to have picked up where he left off last season.

What a perfect day, I had the day off (i've had the last 5 weeks off mind!), had a pub lunch in the sun, played golf in the sun and got back to watch us win 4-0 and the mancs lose to Burnley! Bloody brilliant!
