Raheem Sterling

[Pablo]

The assist for the first goal was Coutinho-esque. Weight of the pass was perfect.

Gerrardinho-esque

Both, plus Suarez. We've got a few players who can hit a sublime through ball these days

I think Sterling is learning so much from playing with those types of player. I don't think he had a pass like that in his locker a year ago, but he's learning fast from these guys. If he keeps up this rate of progression I can see him turning into one hell of a player.

excellent again - surprised he went off as at 3-3, i'd have thought we'd wanted his pace on the break - that said for all we know he might have started fatiguing - Allen made a big difference, but i thought allen for coutinho made more sense

anywya raheem -

Yep, I'd have taken Phil off too, but what to we know!

Allen was sensational when he come on. He was like a tornado, so much energy. Inspirational and key to us going on to win the game. Great substitution.

Superb pass from Sterling to Sturridge for the first goal .....

Has the game just kicked off in Benderland?

Coutinho set up Gerrard for the shot that hit the post. I think Sterling off was the right move.

Allen just played himself into contention in one half of football

exactly - if sterling had stayed on and set up the shot - Gerrard would have scored

Anyone think it's odd that sterling is not getting much media coverage?

19 yr old electric wing sensation, World Cup hopeful, who can also hit through balls like that and not worth a mention on motd?

I like it to be honest, good for keeping him grounded but still odd that nobody is really talking about him.

[Roboklopp]

Media are jizzing themselves into a frenzy over Scum's rising star Anusface rather than looking at Raheem. Best it stays that way.

[Pablo]

He did get some hype at the start of last season to be fair.

I quite like how little he's being talked about. Long may it continue.

I do want him to make the World Cup Squad though, I think it'd be wonderful for him. I think he could tear it up over there too to be honest.

[Fosterbloke]

Or he'll be **** under the Bodge and he comes back lacking in confidence

[Buzzo]

His set up play on the first goal was phenomenal. Won the ball, broke at speed, played killer through ball for DS.

Goal.
