Now, that was a much, much better second half performance by all the players.
It was all Liverpool and a thoroughly deserved 4-1 win if we forget about the first half. Glad Joe Cole got his first goal in a Reds shirt. Maxi Rodriguez did really, really well in the secold half. It would be difficult for me to pick a man of the match because I felt Joe Cole, Maxi Rodriguez, Jay Spearing and Martin Kelly did really well. Even Raul Meireles was pretty impressive. Ryan Babel did well as well. Last but not least, Daniel Pacheco and Lucas, who scored a cracking goal, showed why they deserve to have started the game. Also fair play to David N'gog, who scored a brace after a very quiet first half.
I would really stick Martin Kelly on the right of the defence now and push Glen Johnson, who is poor defensively, up in front of Martin. I'd give Maxi a start on Sunday as well.
This is the result we all have longed for for the last few months. That was the performance we longed for for this new season. Love it that many from the academy made an appearance to go along with that 4-1 result.
So made up with that result even though David N'gog got me result wrong by scoring the fourth.
