Well you don't see that kind of result every week. To beat anyone in this league 6-0 away from home is outstanding, truly.
Thought Coutinho stood out head and shoulders above everyone else, that lad is an immense talent for his age, for any age he's spectacular but for being so young it is frightening for opposition how good he could become.
We started with right attitude today and all credit to Brendan for that, because in these games where there's 'little to play for' for us you can expect, not excuse, a lethargic attitude and there was absolutely no sign of that from the moment we started.
To be honest it could have been more and they only had 1 real chance which they definitely should have scored from but besides that we never looked in danger. Have to give Enrique great credit, thought he was immense at the back and the few moments they had he snuffed it out.
Lucas was very strong also, but Gerrard was better, imperious display in the middle, Newcastle looked at times like they had no midfield we played that well in there. Thought Sturridge actually could have played a lot better, but in my eyes that's the mark of a good player, coming off with 2 goals in the bag and there's more in the locker, can't argue with that.
Hendo with 2 goals also, first one was the better, great move and lovely to see him making that run, he's added that to his game this year and I'm going to give the boss credit for that also as it's something he's always needed to 'take a chance'.
Not going to mention any negatives as it just seems to wind people up so I'm happy to leave those well behind and delighted for Borini to get his goal even if it did cost me a nice touch the little git. The joy on his face was worth it though and the confidence that will give him will pay dividends in the weeks to come in my opinion.
What a game, now let's take this momentum on and batter Everton!
Well in boys!
