Sunderland v Liverpool match thread

[Guest]

What a muppett you look. Good quick pass to Torres for his goal, and made Liverpool tick in the second half with quick passing. His effort from his own half just wide was probably our best effort upto that point

Xabi has been brilliant in the 2nd half. Form is temporary class is forever and this guy is the best passer of the ball at the club. Of that there is no doubt

Oh you're the muppet no doubt. On this form Xabi deserves his place. Was too infrequent last season. Anyway, there's sterner tests ahead and I doubt he'll get as much space as he had today.

We already have the best in the world. SG.

Am really chuffed Xabi did so well today. Let's hope he can keep it up.

How sweet would it have been if he did hit back of the net with that long kick.

Alonso changed the game really. Looked much much better in the second half and actually created something positive.

Dossena a completely different player, looked good in the 2nd half.

Arbeloa was atrocious, maybe I've given him too much credit. Nervous and ****.

Gerrard got into more advanced positions, Benayoun was really good I thought and offered some creativity.

Kuyt is ****ing ****, and the fact that he was kept on while Benayoun and Keane were taken off concerns me. He was useless today and I don't think he'll be much better this season.

And once again.

Thank god for Torres.

What a player.

P.S Keane's goal tally is -1

Get that useless Irish cunt Keane off and Torres scores, job done.

FFS!!!!

Alonso came on and changed the game for us.

At his best he is good as anything around but we need more of that please xabi. One game played - one assist - and 3 points - well done xabi.

u can't help yourself can u u deluded man. xabi had a great game, and for what its worth he made his space rather than was given it. deal with it xabi is class.

Doesnt give us width tho does it? Stevie power past players, we need someone with trickery. I dont mind SG being at RW, but in that case we need xomeone left-footed opposite cos he'll drift in too much to keep our width.



Look at Torres's face. !st interview in English straight after a game?

[Johnny]

Xabi is no doubt a good player.Problem is,consistancy.if he stays I hope he can play like today most games.

[BrooklynRed]

3 points away, a draw turned into a win. With all of the bull**** and distractions these past weeks, 3 points and a Torres goal will do just fine. I hope we can find focus and the cutting edge as we move forward, but this would have been 1 point last year... already an improvement, I think. And again, MASCHERANO BACK WILL TRANSFORM THIS TEAM.

Xabi is man of the match.

well seeing as though it was the 1st game of the season and he's had a consistant 45 mins so far i don't see a problem.

But I don't want width for the sake of width. I want someone playing on the RW who scores and assists. There is no-one else around who would give you more in that role than SG.
