Liverpool 3-0 Wigan: In-game & post-match exultation

Stats say that Wigan had more possession & passes than us.

Sorry, but I don't believe that for a second. The only time they ever had the ball was for small attacks & counter-attacks.

We were dominant.

Its nice that the only important stat shows we battered them.

what an enjoyable afternoon just added to by the blueshite slipping up Spurs getting twated Newcastle getting beat.Our luck which has been absent other than bad luck isnt finally about to change is it.

Other results have definitely fallen kindly for us today.

Just annoys me that people can get such obvious things wrong. Especially Opta.

And with a bit more luck they will stay that way! Just glad to get them three points today, Enrique MOM for me, another good performance.

jubilation!

Another stat to reflect on we kept Wigan from scoring and that's only the third time in fifteen EPL away matches this calendar year they've failed to hit the back of the net.

Thoroughly deserved proud of everyone of them out there. Lets keep it going lads.

And with a bit more luck they will stay that way! Just glad to get them three points today, Enrique MOM for me, another good performance.

Enrique an dLuis seem to have found something that wasnt there before if that makes any sense.

YES!!!! So happy with that win. WHAT a second half performance. Whatever Brendan said at halftime, let's get more of that!

It's tough to decide on MOTM for me. I thought Raheem Sterling completely changed the game in the second half. It wasn't so much because of the assist, it was because of the interception. His pressing and pace made that play. It was also incredibly mature on his part to pick the pass out and not aimlessly cross the ball into the box.

Jose Enrique was a beast in the second half as well. He would have thought playing him at LW would be so fruitful? Seriously, in one half, he got more goals and assists than Downing did the whole of last season in the league! His performance was very good. He showed a good understanding with Suarez and Johnson, made some great touches, and his throughballs this season have been sublime. It's gotta be because of the haircut right?!

And what more can you say about Luis Suarez this season? He made the first goal look far easier than it was, and his run and finish for the second was simply brilliant. He's brilliant. And world class. I'm glad he's ours!

Also, credit to Brendan. Taking off Suso for Jordan Henderson was not the move I would have made. I thought it was a strange move, even a wrong one, but it turned out to be very astute. Hendo has his critics, and he should have had a goal, but his workrate and energy in midfield is awesome. You need that kind of pressing when you play against the so-called "weaker" teams because they're not used to being under constant pressure. I don't want to say Henderson changed the game, but he did play a decent part in the turnaround.

Overall, I think it was a good TEAM performance in the second half. If we could string more performances like the second together, we can climb the table. But, to be fair, we can't have more halves like we did in the first. Gotta perform for the full 90. We got the three points, so it's happy days for me!

A great performance all round. 3 points and a clean sheet, very little to complain about

Where is the love for Henderson? Thought he really made a point to Rodger's today, showed how poorly Sahin has been playing recently.

Clean sheet was lovely. Cutting edge came in the second half, first half was dire.

Overall pleased, but we need to go on a run! No point in playing well and winning today if we play crap and drop points next weekend.

Good results happened for us elsewhere, need a run of wins to make the most of it.

Unfortunately only got to see the first half, sounds like we battered them after halftime, great result and really happy for the team. Good to see Reina back where he belongs as well.

And Suarez.....wow, what else can be said.

Enrique an dLuis seem to have found something that wasnt there before if that makes any sense.

Yes mate it does.

Think Hendo needs a big shout out, hopefully this will give him the onfidence to step up a level.

Hated the first half , loved the 2nd half. Desperately wanted Luis to get his 3rd.Wouldn't swop him for any player
In World football , and I really mean that. I absolutely love him , love his attitude , his impish ways , his skill , his pure love of the game.
Thought Enrique and Johnson were top class as well. As for Sterling , he just gets better.
Onwards and upwards , oh and Everton got beat , as did Chelsea and Newcastle , my cup runneth  over !

Don't forget Spurs

Loved that 2nd half, absolutely awesome and backed us to win 3-0 too so even better!

Thought Enrique was unbelievable, best performance by a left winger at this club for years, didn't just continue his form from the previous game he went up a few notches. Be amazed if he can stay at that level for long but anywhere near it on a consistent basis and I'll stop calling for us needing an option out wide. Also came in, got a goal, looked a threat on more than 1 occasion, easily MotM.

Thought the lads at the back were fantastic too, Agger and Skrtel dealt with everything, Pepe very secure too, nice easy come back game to be fair. Johnson quite quiet, just get supplying Enrique to be fair, came alive more 2nd half with some great runs and as the confidence in the side grew you saw him rampaging near the end. Wisdom much better in the 2nd half than the first too (as were most) thought we had a threat down the right were in the first it was none existent. Allen solid, Gerrard not as good as the previous game but still decent and thought Hendo did really well when he came on to be fair to him. Honestly don't think Suso was doing bad but not going to argue with the boss when after his change we go on to have the best half we've had all season.

Luis was simply Luis, 2 more goals in the bag and I simply cannot get enough of the guy, great display and only passed for MotM by a godly performance. Think Sterling could of done a lot more in the first half and came on massively in the 2nd, overall absolutely over the moon with that display, not because it's just 3 points against Wigan it's the manner in which we destroyed them 2nd half, has to give us confidence, brilliant lads, absolutely brilliant.

So happy. Finally, it is a week that belongs to us (other results going our way). A little surprised at how quiet Anfield was even when we were cruising. I think every player in a red shirt played his part. Enrique was a standout performer. Made up that he got his first Liverpool goal. Things are finally looking brighter.

Happy days

Ill get into the nitty gritty later on, just gonna enjoy the result for a while first

Other results have definitely fallen kindly for us today.

As they have all season HtH and we've definitely rode our luck in that respect.

That factor may be the key between now and January; we lift our points return, whilst others continue to falter and who knows. 

Think Hendo needs a big shout out, hopefully this will give him the onfidence to step up a level.

Should have banged that one from 6 yards in.

Great 2nd half  by all the lads after a scrappy 1st

 good 3 points
    To be honest was not happy at first with suso going out for Hendo,(unless the young lad was injured), but it paid in controlling the midfield and Wigan
 Well done Lads and Rodgers
