Liverpool vs Newcastle United Post Match Thread

[Fivex]

Joe Cole making Jamie Redknapp sound like an intellectual.

[danperkins]

His passing and crossing was from the other world.

I hope other players elevate their game after this inspiring performance.

That said, Bellamy was incredible today and Skrtel saved the goal and Enrique was Enrique.

some serious performances in there, Gerrard back i'm hoping will give us the boost we desperately need. I pray his injuries are behind him!! And Bellamy is vital for us, quality player shows the passion,commitment and directness that many others can take a leaf out of.

[danperkins]

He literally looks like a different player, it's incredible. Not 'looks' like, as in his appearance But the way he plays is just a different player completely, solid, composed, no mistakes, always switched on. Superb.

dare i say it, long gone seem the rash mistake ridden CB, looks so comfortable beside Agger. His positioning has dramitically improved too.

Steve Clarke? Or just coincidence?

I thought he was good under Rafa so no surprise here.

Gerrard to the rescue once again, composure, game intelligence and class that is seriously lacking in our squad. The guy is on a different level

A different team with him in the side. Bellamy,Spearing,Skrtel,Enrique & Johnson were outstanding, simply outstanding. Spearing cleaning house was a nice relief, gives other license to get forward bit more.

Would have loved to see Carroll score, IMO himself,Adam,Hendo & Downing bar some good approach play in first half were below par. Agger was good but got caught out twice quite badly.

That delivery from Gerrard was incredible, several players need to take a leaf out of his book and show some composure and pick out the pass, instead of head down job.

Great result, great last half hour, captain fantastic is back lets hope he can stay fit & god forbid we might actually see him and Suarez for a few games

Our performance before Stevie came on was worrying. Apart from Bellamy none of our midfielders or forwards have the mindset or ability to influence the game. It was a great win but I think tonight highlighted the fact that we will need to spend fairly big money in January to secure a top 4 finish.

Combination of things probably, Clarke will have had an influence, Agger's clearly quite a composing figure too. Added to the fact that it's been the same settled back 5, and consistency helps along with the confidence of knowing we have such a good defensive record and solid unit.

Take Gerrard & bellamy out of that team and we look horrible from the midfield up.

How the **** did Cabaye not get sent off? Both feet off the ground, disgraceful.

[Daniel 7]

That really was a nasty tackle from Cabaye.

Coloccini as well - dirty *******s.

Word of praise for Skrtel, who was outstanding again. A totally different player from the one so many of us felt was a liability (which he probably was).

Love this

King and Prince

[Shanks]

We're starting to have a decent looking bench aswell..

More goals there than on the pitch..

Kuyt, Gerrard, Maxi.

Ref had an incredible view of it as well..........can't wait to hear Dermot Gallagher's exoneration on SSN

That really was a nasty tackle from Cabaye.

Coloccini as well - dirty *******s.

[Daniel 7]

If Carroll's head against the bar had gone in, that would have been one of the goals of the season. Tremendous ball in and he was very unlucky. He should be there more.
