Stoke (A) Post Match

[Chazza]

It was a **** pass back to him by Toure though.

We will end up blaming the whole team at this rate

[Chris]

This game gave a fair indication of our spirit as a team and our confidence in our attacking ability.

The Liverpool of a few years ago would have capitulated but we just go and score some more. It's great to see and I don't think we're a million miles from a title challenging side to be honest.

Yep, our spirit is ****ing awesome, they properly done us over there last year but no more of that ****. All the momentum was with them at half time but we come back out and scored 3 more, Chelsea looked like they could batter our exhausted, injury hit team when they went 2-1 up but we didnt give in, alright we still lost but only by one and if the game was officiated fairly would have got at least a draw. We looked like we'd ****ed up the derby, losing with 7 mins left but back we come and should have won it etc. It's great.

Disagree, can't give the ball away the way and in the position Henderson did. Skrtel closed down, the shot went through his legs.

[Daniel 7]

Skrtel was moving backwards and allowed Adam too much space and time to shoot. Its the one talent the fat get has, hitting the ball hard with his left foot. Skrtel should have been on him. No way that shot should have been allowed to come in.

Exactly, it's one of the good things about Sakho, he doesn't hang about around our area, he's out on top of players very quickly . Suarez on the first allowed the cross to come in too and as usual our CB's were beaten all ends up in the air. But he made amends so I'll forgive him

[Le Chef]

One of my gripes is the way we slow the game to an almost crawl when we are 1 or 2 up, its happened a few times now, and we seem to concede and then we struggle to get going again. Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting 100mph for 90 minutes, but I don't think we are as ruthless as we can should be.

Skrtel wasn't the only one at fault but time and time again he backs off from the player and / or turns his back.

I don't think he's as bad as some make out. I think he's got potential to be a good defender, but he has too many deficiencies to his game to start week in, week out.

[Maxiedge]

I thought Henderson was massively at fault for their second goal. It was quite a simple flick on to Gerrard IMO and he got badly wrong.

After their crushing 5-3 win over Stoke on Sunday, Liverpool's players were spotted heading into London for dinner with their other halves.

The Liverpool Christmas party was cancelled, so this dinner could have been a late celebration.

Has there ever been a Footballers Christmas party that wasnt cancelled?

All that money and they can't afford new jeans

Memorably ours in 1998.

1. Why were they in London- Stoke away and Villa at home are hardly near London?
2. Why was the xmas party cancelled, that's usually for under performing clubs

1. Dont't know
2. They players recognized that we have the chance to be at the top this season so they postponed it to stay focused.

First question is a bit odd isn't it? They're not chained down between matches
