To be fair even the first half was much improved on what we’ve seen, assured, keeping them pressed in, it required Jota to break the deadlock but the whole 90 was our best since last season.

I had a lovely time tonight. It was like watching Liverpool last year. Serene.

Imagine if we hadn’t played Jota in a dead rubber CL game. We’d be 2nd or 3rd right now. 100%

Dunno there has been a lot wrong with this team since January and it’s not all down to Jota missing.

MoTM: Gareth Southgate for giving TAA a mini break

Homage of the day: Alison for a circa 1997 David Seaman tash complete with the yellow jersey

Troll of the match: Klopp for putting on R Williams

Yeahhh!!! A really good, clever, cold-nosed second half on the back of the first one: staying well concentrated at the back, winning the physical battle in midfield, and taking the chances when they came along. Well done lads!

Jota’s introduction was the turning point, and Klopp got that one 100% right by turning towards a 4231 and giving Robbo a well needed rest before the next game. The most pleasing thing for me though is that Klopp’s trust in the Kabak-Phillips partnership is rewarded with a clean sheet tonight. A really good night for us all round!

Edit: oh, that mustache!.. :scream: :cold_face: :rofl: :+1:t2:

There’s been a lot of games we’ve dominated possession without looking like scoring…Like tonight before Jota came on

Very nice. Up front flat, but Jota sparked it all to life. Good win. Maybe, just maybe, that top four is within reach.

Dominated but not even got close to the final third even that first half today is far higher than we’ve been for months.

We’re only 1 point off…it’s more than a maybe now!

If we keep up that intensely for the rest of the season we will get in the top four no problems Lets hunt them down

Gave it to Fabinho, he is the differents-maker in midfield.

BTW, Firmino had a decent game tonight.

Where are the moaners from the first half?

Three things have made us look more like our old selves. First is Fabinho in midfield. We control games again now and the defence has better protection. Second is a settled CB partnership. Both Phillips and Kabak look rock solid and their confidence is growing with every game. Third is Jota coming back. He’s a born goal scorer. Right place, right time striker. Before he came on we dominated but didn’t look much like scoring.

Arsenal were totally pathetic. I can see why my Arsenal supporting mates are so depressed right now. Abysmal. Anyway, fuck 'em. It was just the game we needed before Real on Tuesday. Keep this up and the season might not be a complete write-off after all.
