Having now watched yesterday's fantastic performance I'm now convinced as ever that we are officially a real danger to the so called top 4 ,
Everyone to a man put in a shift with special mention for Messers
Suarez , Lucas, Gerrard, & Skrtle despite his air shot.
Make no mistake , WBA are a decent outfit who will cause problems to any side, as they have proven recently,
I am confident that we will get better and more consistent now that the 'group' seem to have gotten used to the new system,
With Coutinho to come back in we will be better balanced and have a forward trio capable of destroying any defence in Europe never mind the EPL,
Back this up in the Jan window with. 2 or 3 quality additions(and keep the Loon) we will be a real and genuine threat for top spots,
I think we turned a corner yesterday, after we went 2 up you could see the confidence ooze, prior to that when we had a lead for whatever reason we didn't look convinced we would see it thru,
We looked more comfortable especially the Lucas Gerrard midfield, before at times they looked lost and dare I say fish up a tree but yesterday they looked like they had played together there for years ,
It was a complete joy to watch, all 4 goals were belters, from the Suarez nutmeg to that fantastic piece of skill from Danny, that header, tbh, I don't think there is another player on the planet that would even attempt that never mind bullet it past a keeper, and that cross from Gerrard was simply world class, and that chip, again simply world class, had that been RVP or Granny Shagger, those at sly sports would cum in their collective pants and we'd never hear or see the end of it, it was Messi like IMO, look at it closely again, watch how Danny looks up , then just shifts the ball to his left and delivers with perfect weight, loft and accuracy at pace under extreme pressure to beat a keeper and drop the ball just under the bar, again, simply world class,
A fantastic performance all round, only Cissokho looked out of sorts but give the lad time he will come good,
Well done Brendan and the lads, superb performance,
