Credit to Swasea, they've turned this into a scrap and they're winning it.

We need to slow it down a tad and play smarter.

How do you explain this trend of demolishing a small team 5-1 and then playing so erratic against another small team?

Pitch quality? Poor lighting? Players not really up for it? Forgot their tactical play?

Word for word, that was what was reported online and on papers, but why do all the home work and put it in a digest form for them? Do you see any of the Coca Cola, KFC etc executives goes out there and talk about their house formula? I'm sure thousands thot they have a clue on how to make a cola or a fried chicken, but we should keep tactics etc inside Melwood and in the dressing room

Karius has looked just as erratic, if not more so than Mignolet has in this one. Looks uncomfortable in the box, not sure when to come out, and his distribution has been a bit poor.

Wjanaldum back to his anonymous , lost self as well. I'm still wondering why he was purchased, because it looks like he was a replacement for Can at this point, who to me is our most underrated and one of our most important players.

What is wrong with Sturridge - has looked dreadful so far.

Klopp needs to earn his corn in situations like this where we have a history of repetitive failure when not at our best.

One thing smashing 10 men at Anfield but fundamentally this is the problem eating us away, GOAL 

I didn't think that would end up in the back of the net, seemed to mis hit it a bit, but he did exactly what he needed to do to get it in. Well played by Firmino.

Firmino, Coutinho, Mane, Lallana and Milner all lead the team with 3 PL goals a piece now...

We need to turn a scrap like this into a narrow win if we are to keep up our momentum

C'mon this is the type of game we need to walk away with 3 points

Lets bring this home now

WTF?! Karius almost costed us there

Not been impressed by Karius at all - looks very indecisive.

Good win in the end. Showed real character there. Firmino and Milner MOTM, but questionable performances by Sturridge and our new goalie.

Good win lads...been a scrap

Did our best to blow it but thats a big win in terms of clubs culture losing in this type of scenario.

Agree over Karius looks like we will need to be patient with him but its not easy.

Milner man of match for me today.
