Hendo so modest, wrapped up in the towel. Let us see you baby.

Just excellent, could have been even more than the 5 we scored last season.

Balotelli slotted in nice, had 2 really good chances but he hasnt played in 2 months so needs some time to bed in. Im saying it the last 2 games we have to play with 2 up top sterling and sturridge are far more effective.

Sterling what can I say he's the best teenager in world football its not even up for debate.

Manquillo - solid out, goodbye johnson.

Moreno - for his size he is very strong and tough, great pace and a cracking finish for the goal.

Henderson - the guy just doesnt stop running, he is continung to boss midfields and play key passes. Great player my MOTM.

Lovren and Sakho, lovren was very shaky but he just doesnt trust his partner and he's a little too eager that is the problem, he is trying to do too much. There was a couple of times Sakho was marking his man and Lovren jumped in opening huge space in the backline. The potential is there though to be a monstrous partnership.

Overall 3 really tough games done and we have 6/9, if we replicate that for the season we will finish around 78 points enough to be in the top 4 again.

Bastard international break now, got a nice run of "easier" games next.

Its not about trust, the problems arose when he was attacking balls that should've been Sakho's because he's used to playing LCB rather than RCB. Not sure if Rodgers will stick with this partnership but Lovren will learn the position quickly hopefully.

Ganymede Glow

Rodgers on Balotelli: "I'm giving him responsibility. For first time in his life, he marked at a corner. I'm serious."

Talisman

Rodgers said in his interview that there will possibly be one player brought in tomorrow, but it looks unlikely.

I felt Lovren got in Sakho's way quiet a few times I don't think it was down to him feeling nervous about playing with Sakho or trying to cover him.

I think it was just down to him playing on the right for the first time in a long time and he kept drifting over to the left just out of habbit of playing on the left for so long.

Once they get used to playing together they will be a monster centre back pairing with pace.

Can someone point to the performance from Sakho that suggested he will ever be good enough for Liverpool. He gave the ball straight to a Spurs player 3 times today and we could have been punished by a better side.

Lovren is more comfortable on the left and Skrtel is simply better than Sakho.

The performance of both full backs was a real positive.

I still think Skrtel and Lovren are the better pairing in the long run. Not sure Sakho will ever be of the quality we desire. He's here long enough now to start showing something.

The rest of the team looks fantastic. So many options. Great pressing and work rate.

Gbear

When Sakho is bad he really is atrocious.

Hopefully he and a few of the others who haven't had much game time can build up a bit of sharpness in the League Cup or post-CL league games.

Lovren has yet to fully convince me but at least he seems like he can recover when he does make a balls of it.

Solid enough from the two full backs. Moreno was really aggressive in the 2nd half and deserved that goal for his work.

Gerrard was really **** on the ball in the first half. Wasn't that involved in the 2nd. Hopefully with another midfield option getting back to fitness we can get someone to come in on occasion. It's good that we have so many players staying behind at Melwood this week - a good chance for Balotelli, Lallana and Moreno to bed down.

Was pretty impressed with Can. Very strong run for the chance Sterling fluffed.
Markovich seemed a bit reticent to really go at them for them reason. He was happy to sit on the wing and recycle the ball.

Augmerson

Manquillo starts from now on.

I thought today was an excellent team performance . Only 3rd game into the new season . Those 3 games have been hard enough as a start and to have 6 points after 2 tough away games is fantastic .

Quality film, quality soundtrack, quality post!

Not long age we would have shat ourselves if we had to go into a game without a defence of Enrique, Agger, Skrtel and Johnson.

Moreno goal reminded me so much of this chap

Yes Yes Yes, get in there, delighted with the win and performance! Loved Morenos goal that was a bit of icing on the cake, Balo played well apart from a couple of chances, all in all a 0-3 at WHL is very very impressive.

I'm loving the decision to put Moreno at the edge of the box from corners. He's so quick he'll be a big threat on the break. Definitely wouldn't be surprised if he picks up a few goals in that way.

Soft Falling Rain

Absolutely elated with that, was fearing the worst. Balo looked good imo bar the finishing, Moreno made a mockery of the sky analysis on Monday and Sterling? Quality, needs to improve his decision making but other than that the lad just gets better.

Great way to go into the international break.

Negatives for me were Lovren and Sahko having a some dodgy moments in the first half. Looked much better in the second and hopefully they will only get better.

For me (and I assume a lot of LFC fans) that is our strongest back 4.

Also thought Sturridge was a little off today. Great to see we can win comfortably with our main man not exactly performing.

Would still love another player to be rotated with Gerrard but I have to say I'm really confident about this season. It's going to be great to have Lallana back from injury.

Harry Palmr

I like the fact Linda Pizzuti clearly knows there is a joke surrounding her delight in clean sheeets.

gafferino

Moreno....so far he looks like what we've been missing on the left for a long time. Very early days but aside from the mistake v City I'm delighted we have him.

Moreno's goal, that remind anyone of Riise's first goal against Everton? He's defo a bit quicker but looks a real talent!

Agent Coulson

We need to play two up front from now on.

Excellent stuff. To get a 3-0 win away at WHL is no mean feat. Would love to go back through all those daft comments from last week saying how "we are just not that good" and how "itl be a long season ahead"

Again, it was the champions away from home we lost to.

This preformance today had so many positives. Was very impressed with Mario. With a little bit more sharpness (and his shooting boots) he could be an excellent addition.

One thing that seemed clear to me was that with him there, we had another distraction at the top end of the pitch which freed up more room for the likes of Sterling and Sturridge.

Defensively we looked a little shakey but improved in the second half. I have been wanting Moreno to sign all Summer and when we got him I was delighted.

Going forward he is another threat and it will do him the world of good to get that goal.

All round though I am delighted. Henderson also excellent. Pressing till the very end. Can looked very good when he came on to. Great powerful run at one stage too.

Nothing else to say about Sterling but we have a gem of a player there. Outstanding today.
