Despite his goal, I thought Coutinho had a poor game. Yes there were far worse players oh the pitch for us, but we really need the likes of him to perform in big games.
Other random thoughts: Sturridge seemed to be spending too much time too deep for me; as a striker he should be in their CBs. I think Moreno will be lucky to still be with us next season . And Mingolet, a few good saves, but will be remembered, and slaughtered, for the poor one he let beneath him...such is a goalkeepers lot.”

Yes Lucas had a great game, I'm a fan of his anyway (as I always feel he gives 100% to LFC) but I was a bit aggrieved at Carra & Quinn's Pre match comments, happily he had changed their minds by half time and they remained changed at full time. Lucas, considering his short stint at CB was excellent alongside Kolo Toure. Considering the opposition they both should be proud but sadly that penalty miss has got the haters out in force on social media, Lucas has his pen saved , gets direct twitter abuse from some, Coutinho hits(?) a ridiculous penalty and receives no abuse (not that he should) Twitter tweet Hendo YNWA, tweet Lucas - leave the club .....I know I shouldn't read it but it winds me up so much that a player who can never be faulted for his effort & desire to LFC receives abuse
Kompany was class with his words and actions I have to say.
Still pretty gutted today, CC or not I wanted a trophy for Klopp and the boys.
P.S. Anyone know if Alan is still on his hols? I remember reading he was going away for a few weeks but haven't noticed him posting since? Just curious.
