Two goals against the run of play. Diego Costa's pass to Pedro was lousy and should have been the other one complaining about it. Then he skied our best chance. Surrendered after 2-0.

Scousers pickpocketed.

I 'm going to play lotto with Olivier Giroud next week.

Williaaaaaan

Stoke could have lost by 10-1 today at Enfield. The reds were shooting balls at their own men instead of aiming for the goalposts. L'pool may develop into Chelsea's opponent in the race. City and the specialists no, let's be serious ! Also United are staging a revival and if nothing else they will qualify for the CL.

We are 90% champions.

Scored 3 goals so far. Last year 5, for the entire season. Last year Costa-Hazard were underpeforming, Costa very badly so during the early half of the season and Hazard for almost the entire season ! So only Willian was left. I think he lost his free kick skills however, even before Luiz started taking the free kicks. I have never sided with Willian's critics. Granted there are some better right wingers around, e.g. Bale, but the critics are too harsh.

James for Hazard ? What nonsense is this ? London bridge in exchange for pocopico souvlaki-kebap house then.

Our next league matches are against Bournemouth 26/12 then against Stoke 31/12 and then away to Spurs on the 4/1. Why against Spurs again so soon ? That was our 13th match of the season so the replay should have been the 32nd match, not the 20th.

L'pool escaped from prison.

In Europe it's Real, Bayern, Barcelona, Atletico till last year and possibly Juve. After those five there is no more and the PSG bubble has burst. To make an impact we have to go after players like Sanchez. As things stand we can beat the likes of Benfica, Kyiv, Feyenoord but what if we play any of the top ? The last two years City and Arsenal were knocked out for fun.

Gooners down. I thought they were a semblence of a threat. City never worries me but L'pool may inch a little closer tomorrow.

Tibot was not called upon today. I think we were unlucky not to double the score. It was not a case of packed defense as we were already one up, but we were unlucky once again and scored only once.

Superb header from Diego. Should have been 2-0 in the end.

Our price in the betting is 1.80. It's ridiculously low.

That new City player is he so good ? I think the gooners balloon will burst sooner or later while L'pool look fairly useful.

Ok, the "Ronaldo" channel from which I was watching was flickery, that's why I asked. But as I said Willian lacks physical strength. He is nippy and clever but nobody has ever said he is a strong guy.

Could Mannone save it without the deflection ?

Willian does n't have Diego's physical strength or even Eden's. Surprisingly his failed replacement Quadrado is going great guns for La Juve and don't be surprised if you see the Italians lift the european cup. Against Barca the year before they nearly made it, then Buffon made the mistake and Barca regained the lead.

Not really. He hit the crossbar once and apart from Cesc's goal, everybody missed some half chances.

The ball just did 't want to go in for the second. It took the save of the season, a Banks-Guadalajara save from Tibot, in the end,

You don't know. Never write off an English team. I dimly remember L'pool during their glorious years lost to a non-entity inside the Enfield, but they were clear champions in the end. Football logic says 3-0 though.

Scousers down, specialist down.

These things happen in Latin American dictatorships also in Iraq under Saddam Hussein.

Diego strikes !
