      Huge turn around once we got the first goal. Smashing them now and it's a shame it's near half time.

      Origi has been outstanding in terms of switching the play today, love it.

      HT, that will do. Let's come out after half and finish them off, no let off here.

      I don't get how Lovren gets dragged to right wing by his man.

      Left us completely exposed.

      We've managed to be a goal up here with most of our passes being off so that's a good sign.

      They were definitely giving us issues in that early part of the first half, our defence not really having consistent answers and that is a worry. Going forward though we've created absolutely loads of chances there and there's no doubt we should be a bit more comfortable than 2-1 as we go in for the break.

      Good response from going behind, now finish the job off.

      Origi has been outstanding in terms of switching the play today, love it.

      Played like a top class centre forward. Expertly linking up with his teammates and his positioning in the box has been excellent if someone picked him out.

      Great second half of the first half. Keep it up and wipe the floor with them.

      Left us completely exposed.

      His level has definitely dropped without Matip beside him. Certainly raises the question who do we drop to bring him back in. I'd guess most would say Lovren right now but if it's on current form the Klavan is currently playing better.

      Lovren looks a lot better on the left side of centre back.

      Think his more exposed when he plays one right side, not entirely sure why.

      Lallana and Origi playing well Firmino looks up for it too, hopefully we can continue with this pressure.

      English adverts are scary.

      Just seen builders dance off vs men wearing women's jean shorts in heels.

      I need a coffee and a break.

      Shocking first 30 minutes, much better in the last 15 and very clinical of us to turn it around so quickly. Front 4 really stepped it up a gear towards the end there, they were really struggling to contain us and if we had a few more minutes I would have backed us to get the third. Particular mention to Origi who's been linking the game up absolutely superbly.

      Hope we can go out there and get another couple because if we defend like we did in the first half again, we might need it.

      That was an impressive come back after going down 1-0 and the Migs save vs Allen. Thought Migs fu**ed up for first, but redeemed himself with that great saved.

      Our midfield has looked impressive after the Allen save, with Origi and Mane playing well.

      They've done what the bitters tried last week, go at it from the off and hope to get the win but just like them they ain't fit enough to maintain the pace.  I don't think any team in the league is fit enough to go toe to toe with us.

      Once we started turning the screws and upped the pace to our level they were fu**ed.

      Great half of footy, love games like this  :D
