Well impressed with todays display.... The "old man" at the back had a blinder against Davies, Finnan seemed really up for it which is pleaseing to see against a so-called "physical" side. Pennant was on his game too, Kuyt and Crouchy worked their b*ll*cks off and Stevie and Xabi bossed the middle to the extent that both Nolan and Speed were subbed (that don't happen often)
I'm still waiting for Gonzo to come up with his breakthrough performance which was probably the only downside (but that's being ultra critical!) glad to see Crouchy repeat his Galatasary goal (lightning obviously DOES strike twice in the same place!) and Pennant and Kuyt seemed to strike up a good understanding which bodes well.
Clean sheet, 3 goals, 3 points, 3rd in the table...... Well done boys!!!

Great result from the lads glad to see us producing the goals against the bigger teams. Fantastic finishes today but gerrard stole the show with his celebration.

Very good performance overall. Pennant played very well down the wing, however Gonzalez was poor again. Crouch and Gerrard took their goals very well, and Kuyt was amazing, work-rate, assists, passing and his goal was good too.
Hyypia was immense at the back.

wasn't too bad was it.
The first half, the atmosphere was dead. Only when we scored the noise really pumped around the ground. Anny Road is always good anyway. My end of the main stand was very good today. As usual I did my bit. But best of all......
Bruce Grobbelar was about 20 rows behind me, so I went up and got his autograph

well no, he got a goal but fuc*ed up a 5 yard chance - just like he did a Blackburn. Hes shi*e in the air, and against the boss sides he'l be lucky to get one chance like those. If he cant take them, we might have missed the boat. simple. Lets see what those geordie sausage jockeys will offer, as i said, theres better players out there..

We payed £7million.
In roughly the same price bracket theres:
Bellamy £6m
Anelka £8m
Ashton £7m
All of them 
all over Peter Crouch. There was far better out there at the time and we missed the boat. Simple as.

Just finished watching the game. Great result, it's obvious confidence has a lot to do with football, now we have it and we win easily.
Bolton wonderers were quite deep and tough defending, they play quite a simple and effective football and probably they'll get points in many places, but not against this Liverpool. We were much better. The game was about making the first one and we had the patience to achieve it.
I liked how we were patient, especially in the first half. The goals came in the second half, though. I'm very happy for Kuyt who was a key player in the previous two goals, and had a well deserved and needed third goal. Crouch keeps working a lot, excellent in the first half, perhaps he shouldn't have run with the ball a couple of times but the teamwork he did was excellent. Not to mention his great goal.
I'd had loved Finnan had scored that effort he tried in the first half. The lad deserves it.
Alonso was not particularly brilliant this game but he did his defensive work well. While I think Gonzo wasn't good, I wouldn't say he was that terrible, neither.
And Gerrard, what can be said?. Some players are very good sometimes, the most amazing thing about Gerrard is that he's hardly poor, he always ranges from good to excellent. And he works for the team too! formidable player. His goal was a beauty.
Little Luis, apart from his six goals, showed he's also an important assistant in this team. I think his numbers cannot be discussed.
As for Rafa, very well reading the game. He's been rotating the wings (Pennant/LG Fabio Aurelio/Gonzalez) and the strikers lately, having fixed Alonso and Gerrard in the middle, and I think that's been a total success.
As I've read earlier, onwards and upwards.

Hi Adam .
The atmosphere always is on New Years Day with the previous nights festivities to recover from.
With the game being switched to 12.45KO I thought 44,000 fans did well just to get there on time !

As for the performance 19 Attempts on Goal against 1 for Bolton says it all reallly.
Pennant had probably his best game so far for us and Hyppia was superb at the back.
I'm not getting into a Crouch debate cos he takes up enough debate on here as it is but 3 pts and another clean sheet will do for me .
As an aside I took my God Daughter to her first ever game at Anfield today and she loved it on the KOP even if she did get told off for shouting too loud ! 
Something to do with Hangovers on the KOP
