      Didn't see the match, slogging through a nite shift.
      Just watched the highlights though, some nice saves from Alisson and looked like some good attacking play and scores.
      19 points clear. Crazy :)

      Having watched on recording and thus coming to this late, a small criticism on this thread. It reads like 8 pages of (mostly) moaning and then 4 pages of celebrating our once-in-a-generation team. So much negativity during the actual match. I thought it was a thoroughly competent and professional for most of the way against a team which even after conceding was mainly set up to frustrate us. Yes as Klopp said there are ways to  improve, but this was a good night and we never looked like anything but in total control.

      A few other points:

      Moyes' tactics utterly failed in the end, but to his credit he did bite Frodo's finger off at Mount Doom.

      Someone else mentioned it but Robbo was tireless and a warrior tonight, on a night when Trent didn't get much chance to help out with the attack.

      Gini and Hendo, once again, immense.

      Mo Salah is so important to this team. He, like Bobby, does so much more than score.

      Ox started slowly but I was happy to see him score a goal.

      Keita I thought played well in his first game back. A lot of good touches and was effective going forward.

      Fabinho - at some point you quit blaming rust. He was so important before his injury but tonight he was mostly a liability, with two giveaways that could have been costly. I'm sure he'll get back to good form but at the moment putting him on to help kill off a match seems contradictory.

      Curtis Jones - on for five minutes and two killer passes. If Divock can't go Saturday.....just saying...

      Thought it was a very professional performance from the boys, we controlled the game for long periods and though would of been nicer if we could of broke through with a few more goals but we looked a world apart from West Ham.

      Both Firmino and Salah had great outings, Firmino touch and skill on the ball continues to be something that troubles defenders and nice ball from Salah on the Ox goal.

      Nice to see Naby back into the fold and Jones who played well when called upon be rewarded with a late cameo with the senior team.

      At this point right now I am just enjoying every second of this squad and what they are doing this season.

      To think I have friends who support West Ham and claim our supporters are quiet compared to theirs ;D. If it wasn't for the away support the stadium would have been a library, well done to the travelling fans, you were amazing and never stopped singing.

      Not sure if this came across on the TV but Robertson doesn't stop running, even when he's not getting the ball he is constantly on the move and looking to get in behind the opposition's defence.

      Salah was the difference tonight IMO, his quality in phases shone through and was unlucky to have not had a hat-trick tonight, also seemed a lot more comfortable looking up and looking for the best option rather than just having a pop every time.

      We've conquered all of your Europe, we're never gonna stop!!!!

      My wife’s family are all season ticket holders. The London Stadium is big but no where near as atmospheric as the Boleyn Ground.

      They’re absolutely gutted about this season, so many crap performances. It’s embarrassing

      Wow...teams really are sh*t scared of us!

      3 men round Salah when he got the ball, defensive line ups and long balls when they can.

      If Klopp adds a bit more creativity in the summer like a Silva type of player these games will be even more straightforward.

      Yeah my friends are putting it down to the club being deflated. Wish I could afford the trip/tickets to a game at Anfield before the end of the season, no matter what I will be there for the parade though!

      Upton Park was some ground aswell mate,the crowd was right on top of the players.
      Personally speaking & straying slightly off topic these new stadiums have no heart or soul & im glad anfield has the scope to be redeveloped cos I could never  ever imagine or bare  the reds having a new ground for a very very long time if at all.

      Another 3 points in the bag from my fantastic REDS,that's good enough for me and our goalie is worth his weight in gold.

      can't see the match live on TV, but just watch the game’s highlight, and feel so glad for the REDS winning habit constantly continued,
      a couple of brilliant save by Allison were outstanding,  great reflect and quick reaction,  another display of top class performance of our GK, bold of strong defense line. He’s my MOTM, for sure.
      Allison.. he is a real gold fingers tips

      It has no soul what so ever. Fans are not allowed to wear football colours when walking through Westfield (next to the stadium) and seats are so far from the pitch.

      West Ham don’t own it either, i think they’re in trouble. The owners are crap. It’s a shame because I like West Ham, they’re a good London team with loyal supporters.

      Curtis Jones already looks the part.It's impossible to say how good he is going to be.10 years ago..or even less he'd be in the side but with the demands and standards now just don't afford playing even an exceptional youngster...but how long can the Boss keep him happy.

      So Westfield is a massive shopping centre in Stratford and people cut through it from the station (plus you can grab food / drinks in there)

      There are literally bouncers on the door!!

      Thought this was apt from Steven Scragg in This is Anfield:

      "On Wednesday evening, in east London, West Ham’s tactical approach to the visit of Liverpool was to curl up into the foetal position and hope for the best. They effectively played dead. The mantra seemed to be, “if we just lay here; if we don’t move, they might not eat us”."

      Apart from a couple of brilliant saves from Ali, that was just too easy. A training drill at times and if it wasn't for us causing our own errors, they probably wouldn't have even got a shot on target!
