      With one game left to play before the season starts, I hope the likes of Stevie and Torres tune up a bit. Especially Torres.

      But happy about the win and the control of the game as it progressed. Thought Mascherano bossed it and you could see the confidence from him. Kelly had a very good game. Cavalieri deserves a mention for those two superb saves he made in the first half too.

      Was sorry to see Riera get injured but hopefully it isn't serious.

      I think it's rather apparent that Torres needs to step it up a gear. He has been quiet pre-season.

      But Voronin and N'Gog have been scoring. Which means the roles will be reversed come the first day against Tottenham. Always the way. :D

      Good result. Another run out.. another cracking atmosphere which further demonstrates our worldwide support and another confidence booster for Ryan Babel who played well. Hopefully the Riera injury is not serious. One more tester before the big first day. El Nino will relish the occasion against Atletico and I'm sure everyone will be ready and very hungry by the time we play Spurs.

      Missed the game because i had training but will watch it on LFC.TV tomorrow at some point. From what i have heard though they caused us a fair few problems?

      Will give my view on the game tomorrow.

      The new white jersey is gorgeous. I thought Ngog held it up well and is improving with every game.

      Seen the result and not the game from what I have heard Lyn are sh*t and are in all sorts so I was expecting a bigger win.

      I see nobody is willing to give props to Voronin for scoring so I will (well done lad), the only thing that does concern me is the lack of involvement from Gerrard and Torres this pre season. Stevie missed the Asian tour and Torres has played in pathces to me this is a bit of a worry as at this stage of pre season you want your key players to work on their sharpness.

      We could have won by a bigger margin but the lads weren't really going for hordes of goals, instead they were trying out new things like Benny and Voro were on target but had shots saved because they were attempting to chip the keeper rather than to put the ball in the net.

      This pre-season has all been a ploy to lull tottenham into a false sense of security, and we'll hammer them 11-1.

      Keane gonna grab one again is he? :D
      This was one of those games where almost every shot was just lacking in the finish, on another day we would have scored 8 easy with this kind of display. The two we got were quality clinical finishes from some players we need to step up which was great, and still loving Babels promising performance :)
      And Masch's pass to Doss for the lay off to N'gog, who needs Xabi eh? :D

      I just got back from band practice/pub, and only seen the highlights on SSN, and Ngog's goal was well took, and likewise for Voronin. Good cross for Babel aswell, anyone enlighten me how he played tonight?

      New kit looks nice too. Might save my next paycheck to get one :) Might get Aquilani on back too, give the new lad a chance and that! :)

      Loved the kit. Thought that Babel was quite good too. Johnson was also good. Lucas and Spearing done well in 1st half. Nice win. NEXT

      much better performance. have never been Ngog's biggest fan but I thought he did ok last night.
      Kelly did well and should have scored. Strongest 11 has to start Sat.

      Good game all in all was impressed with both Babel and Ngog San jose still looked a bit edgy to me but Kelly was rock solid !

      Good experience that for Kelly. It seemed we were playing Degen as a CF for the last 20 or so minutes! ;)

      Degen did have a good game he kept running at defenders done well in my opinion.

      Still needs to improve on his defensive skill though if he could learn how to tackle he could be a decent backup.
