You have to credit Liverpool for last night, I know Newcastle are getting all the plaudits because people feel sorry for them with the Isak situation but the red card was pathetic from Gordon and without spirit they should have easily lost that with ease, but they stood up and fair play. Bot on Liverpool, they reason they are the champions was typified on last night, just watch how they silence the crowd, keeping the ball, nothing with risk or danger, just simple passes, sharp and at times very probing, like a jouster both making Newcastle work, tiring them out and also muting the crowd.
Yes they got a late winner but the move that made that third goal came from what I said above, sharp incisive play, pulling Newcastle around and then bang, they are crying.
Very few teams will win at SJP this season because they cannot handle the atmosphere and intensity, Liverpool managed both, Newcastle fucked themselves over with silly temperaments like we have seen with Jackson
