Gotta’ admit, I NEVER saw that one coming. I always believed we’d score and nick a point. They’ve more than earned that trust and belief from us with their outstanding season to date. But at 2-2, and then when we went 3-2 down, the overriding emotion was frustration and annoyance.

For as good as Fulham were, to be in that ridiculous position was ALL of our own making. What
should have been a routine win in proper grim conditions (freezing cold and the driving rain was having players sliding all over), was anything but as L’pool toiled and laboured for much of the game. But they found a way for a massive win. A win that had Klopp’s previous vintage ‘Mentality Monsters’ stamped all over it. A win that showed spine and backbone in its defiance to not lose the points. A win that goes a long way toward winning a title. A win that had the manager fist pumping and Anfield as wild as shes been all season long.
Winning the league isn’t easy.
And for this group to dig that out, when they hadn’t played well at all ….. thats the biggest and most important part of there young journey yet. They all openly believe they can win this league. That was a statement to
EVERYONE who dares doubt them in that belief.
I loved that we achieved that scoring 4 outstanding goals with none of them coming from our attackers. I loved the superb leadership and outright determination to get the win from Mo ….. First, banging the ball down on the centre spot and gesturing madly to the crowd to raise the noise level at 3-2 down as Fulham celebrated. Then doing the same again at 3-3 as Anfield went off like it hasn’t done in ages. Arms and limbs everywhere as outright, euphoric bedlam ensued. Culminating a minute later with lads toppling over seats in the exultant chaos.
A few player standouts:
Alexis Mac Allister-
His Worldie first goal for the club aside, he’s just getting better and better in the 6 role the more he plays back there for club and Country. His defensive awareness is improving by the game and the amount of tackles/ interceptions and closing off passing lanes he does is a joy to watch. Combine that with his ability to go the other way and be the perfect deep-lying playmaker, and I honestly don’t get why so many insist we need to buy a specialist 6 when we have a really special player burgeoning in the role.

I thought he was excellent at City. And he was the best midfielder by far again yesterday. Wonderfully graceful, super intelligent footballer.
Both Trent and big Virg are proving inspired choices for vice-captain and captain respectively. Proper leaders in every sense of the word and integral in the changies and on the park. Trent had his Gerrard moment yesterday stepping up to drag us home. Telling yer, he’ll be right up there with any Scouser thats ever represented this club when its all said and done. If not the single greatest Liverpudlian to don our colours. Pride in your own doesn’t even begin to cover it.

And that awesome ‘shushing’ celebration ….. Yeah, thats aimed at every last one of you who EVER questioned just what a generational, phenomenal, World class talent he is.
Kostas. For not having me nark at him for the third straight game. Excellent display. Keep it up kid.
Endo for adding to the top class leadership and quality depth we have. And that finish man …..
And then to top the day off, we had City dropping points to, in my mind, put us top the league as I don’t consider Arsenal a threat over 38 games. They had the double whammy of sitting watching us thinking we were going to lose. Only to have that flip around in the most demoralising way with our late comeback win. And then having victory snatched from them as they continue to show they are FAR from impenetrable this season.
The only downer yesterday was the outstanding Matip being added to a growing injury list. ☹ And the Cup draw. Not worried about playing Arsenal at all. But having yet another London away to start next year off is a real pain in the backside!
Winning the league isn’t easy.
But as they demonstrated to the Nation yet again yesterday, we most definitely
CAN win this league yanno’!
UTR!
FTT!!!!!
