Have you given up on the title Scouse?
The parts I skimmed through sounded like an obituary.

Still cant believe I missed this game. Same as the 2005 cup final. I missed the first 70 minutes of that! Im starting to sense a trend here...

I was at a Muse gig for the Dortmund game. Was glued to my phone all game on BBC sport. For the 2005 final, I was only 12, and had gone shopping with my mum. The game started really early (from memory?) so I didnt even realise it had started when I got a call from my dad saying "dont rush back, its 3-0 to them".

Ahhh right. At the o2. Remember you mentioning it at the time in here and being gutted they both fell on the same evening.

Istanbul? Yeah, it would of started early here mate. It kicked at 9:45 PM out there and they're 3 hours ahead. Great quiz question through that on Vladdy Smicer being the only man to score in a European Cup final on consecutive days, with his penalty the shoot-out coming the early hours of the Thursday morning.

Unlucky to miss both. Hope you at least got back home for those glorious 6 minutes!
 
Who would of thought this would of been the match that Liverpool keeps a clean sheet. This match here in the States was touted as the match of the weekend. But both sides seemed really nervy and the result was a lot of **** football.
 
Told ya Scouse, teams only need to get one shot on target by a man marked by Kolorov and its in.
 
Big win, but my word what a poor game with such a lack of quality from both sides. Manchester derby and the Pool/Arsenal game the only ones that lived up to hype.

3 clean sheets the last 4 games. 6 in the last 10. Don't believe the continued media boloney that L'pool are weak defensively.

Yer think? Thought the Arsenal opening day game was poor overall. If exciting with 7 goals. Garbage first half lit up by Phil's free kick. Then L'pool played stunning attacking footie for 20 minutes to get 4-1 up, went to sleep for the next 10, then comfortably saw the game out with nottin' on their goal the last 15 minutes.

And the Manchester derby was City more or less completely giving yers a lesson save for Utd having a 15 minute spell early second half following on from the goal before HT before City settled and got control back.

Don't personally think any big clash has lived up to the ridiculous hype thus far this year. 'Spurs- L'pool was a real top game of football but I don't recall Sky overly hyping it up that week.

I think today nervousness just got a hold of ourselves second half with the stakes so mammoth. Coupled with City just being in a real strange, poor run of form where they just look completely clueless. Nice to see £terling is still as over hyped and ***** as ever when he needs to produce like. Nottin' changes or doubtless ever will there. Don't think we got deeper second half by design per se. Just it was real edgy by it's mere nature. But having said that utterly easy to defend all their possession when they had no idea or spark to do anything with it.

Stressful work this handling the pressure of playing after everyone else each weekend of late. But they're handling it superbly. 4 straight wins after the mini-blip people were ridiculously losing their collective **** over encompassing games at our nightmare away ground The Riverside, the biggest game of the year against that shower from over the park; and today against the the best footballing side outside of ourselves IMHO the league when they click. Ironic that one of the few moves of genuine top quality resulted in the goal. Thought Wijnaldum was superb yet again aside from that great goal as I keep telling anyone that will listen this season. SO unsung in this team. But then you probably need to be at the match to see and fully appreciate the ridiculously good work he does through a game as you see that on highlight cutdown's.

Must be SO demoralising for the Chelsea lads to have the high of another win, their 13th in a row, and then only be a mere two games clear. Like 'what more do we frigging have to do to shake these off?' yer know?

Oh, before I forget, Anthony Taylor/ Michael Oliver. You both have a reprieve. There is actually a more clueless disgrace in Englands officiating ranks than yourselves. If Craig Pawson is the future, then we're in for some PROPER ***** going forward. Nothing shy of an absolute gutless disgrace today. The one time he actually gave L'pool something was the one time he pulled back a clear advantage with them streaming into the box! And the less said about the Lino the Kemmy side the better. Don't know about goal line technology. We need frigging touch line technology for that blind ****!

I'll take any win over a Pep coached side and that one was massive on so many levels. Wouldn't want to be City now sat 4 games off the top half the year in. Some clawing back there and then some.

Rounds off an absolutely awesome 2016 for Liverpool FC were they've returned to National prominence as a genuine, serious threat to everyone once again. With 2017 promising to be the biggest party in nearly 3 decades. ******* great times these to be a Liverpudlian once more.

Bring on Sunderland for the next step on the Road to 19. Although I'm not sure either my heart nor sanity can take 19 more of these!

Up the dogged, all in Reds!

Just looking at the table ..... Forget Chelsea. We've got 43 points from 19 games. 43 out of a possible 57. That's a frigging RIDICULOUS haul. We replicate that the second half the year that's 86 points. That's our best points total at half way in the 25 season's of the PL.

I'll say it again. Those Chelsea lads must be thinking 'FFS. Just **** off will yers!!!!!' 13 straight wins and the Reds are right on their coattails within 2 games. Like what MORE do you have to do if you're Chelsea to shake these irritating Scouse twats?

Forget looking at Chelsea. Relish what our boys have achieved the first half of the season.

And what they're aiming to FINALLY bring back home the second.

Happy New Year boys. 2017 is fixing to be a REAL special one.

Just checked and Chelsea in 05/06 season had 52 points at this stage. 52! Puts into perspective just how good we were then when hitting 40+ is being considered an achievement at this stage.

Absolutely. 40 plus at half way is ridiculously good form. 52 would be phenomenal. For me, our greatest ever side, which I'd put up against any in this Country's deep history and which this current side/ season is aping in so many ways, had 47 through the first 19.

35 plus you're having a great first half the season. 40 plus is ridiculous. 50 plus is just stupid great.

'05-'06 would of been the Gerrard FA Cup final against West Ham year. So we beat you in the semi. Which if you'd won, doubtless would of been another double. Fantastic season.

If that's not doable at this time, I'll stand pat with the lads we have until the summer.
