Yes, they did a Big Sam on us didn't they? A completely unremarkable team that ground its way to a win. Shame, as we should have pissed on them. Anyway, thanks Dave. Couldn't do without your great match reports. Love the site, as I did with the fanzine in the old days. Heads up for the lads and all the supporters...onward and upward for next season.....

Dave, I had us down for the league this season and we just missed out. Predict we will get no 20 next time round. Great report as usual. No 7 in Paris please you mighty boys! All best to everyone...

Great report Dave - really enjoyed it. I grew up own the 1960s and often went to watch Everton when the Reds were away. Those were the days of 'The School of Soccer Science' - and I have a bit of a soft spot for them - but, maybe it's really just nostalgia for my youth. But they are not that sort of club any more. Maybe I will live long enough to see the current bums (did I mean currant buns?) in the National League....

Great report. Love the Vidal analysis..

Top report thanks Dave. 10-0 v Newcastle - on the cards I'd say after seeing them at Leicester...

Nothing to add to that report Dave. Currently we are as good as any team in the world - and better than most.... As you said many times, lap it up while we can. The Wheel of Fortune will turn again some day...

Said it many times - best LFC team ever. Another sensational performance from a team currently at the top of its powers. And it doesn't seem to matter who we take off/bring on. Nothing changes; everyone performs at a high level. Klopp is a genius....and we are privileged to have him and the team he has built. After all, but for a simple twist of fate any of us could have been Evertonians.

A bit OTT for my money Dave. Up to this season you only had to breathe on a GK for a foul to be given - their first goal was a bit more than that. Cresswell should have been off, but didn't even get a yellow (did he?). These things surely alter the whole dynamic. I agree that Bowen should have been brought down for goal 2 - we are not remotely cynical enough in those situations - and Allison didn't cover himself in glory for any of their goals I'd say. We were basically beaten by a team who got their tails up using the Big Sam approach. Disappointing, but expect us to bounce back...

Said it before, will say it gain....best team we have ever had....and best manager...

H.L.Mencken "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the population alarmed-and hence clamorous to be led to safety-by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." The subject of our hysteria has been debated at length. It certainly seems to be characteristic of the Anlosphere right now...

Mind-bogglingly brilliant. You won't see many better performances from any team anywhere than that one....

My only reservation about our title chances is the African Nations thing...it's in January isn't it?

Spot on Dave... Yep - it’s got to be an Italy win - please. Ingerlund have been in the easier part of the draw while all the better teams have been knocking each other out in the other half plus all their games bar one have been at home...... Please God this stitch up stops on Sunday..

Yep - forza Azzuri - let’s give the reverend Southgate and his Ingerlund deadbeats a hammering on Sunday..

Nothing to add really Dave. Another game we should have won by a hatful, so that when the opposition do score it would be a case of "no clean sheet this week then..." 4-1 instead of 4-0. The whole world has gone mad and we have been eaten by it...
