Strange feeling. Happy to have won but actually pretty annoyed as we wasted so many opportunities which should have made the game so much more comfortable at the end. Salah and Mane both had a few greedy moments which luckily didn't come back to bite us.

5/5 without really getting out of 3rd gear is pretty good going though!

Bring on PSG

Yup. 5 out 5 in second gear is good. Scary thing is that they are probably going to get better rather than worse...

Another shocker from De Gea.

P8, W6, D2, L0. Beating top of the league at their place. Play Up Pompey .

Bloody hell. Just shows how you can't see everything on the tv. Looked like a gentle slap, then thought maybe he'd scratched his eye. Jesus, nearly plucked the fucker out.

ha ha

”back” to winning valuable points for Utd. Massive win really. Keeps Utd relevant at/near the top and releases pressure

Jose could have come a cropper parking the aul bus in the second half but....

Ref blew for a foul on Vertongen.

Good day for accumulator wins I imagine

Liverpool very good

that was probably their best so far this season, but they're still a long way from the heights of last season.

Still don't understand why Klopp likes to make a defensive sub near the end - they play worse and often concede as a result.

Douglas Costas behaviour today ?

Yeah I'm sure he brings on Matip to secure things but it has the exact opposite effect on us fans that's for sure! And as you said it just invites pressure and has resulted in us conceding. We are a lot more sturdy at the back now but still not the best idea.

If it was proper/obvious pink (Say like what Stade Francais do) Id probably think "fair enough, whatever floats yer boat" and makes ye a buck or two more, go for it, but it is such an odd colour to look at. Its like an off white with a hint of pink and with the white shorts I found it really strange to look at. At first it kinda felt like it was a white jersey that went slightly pink as the players warmed up and sweated in them, kinda like the opposite of that brilliant white paint that you can get which goes on pink and drys to a white........

Not sure about these new staggered kick off times. CL games at 5:55pm? 5 minutes before I finish work?! No thanks!

Hoping to catch the return of Inter as they have some nice players and last time Spurs lost 4-3 to them it was one of their greatest nights lol.

Some match at Anfield. Lucky in the end. Liverpool need to grow sharper teeth 

[JSmurphy]

Would have been some injustice if Liverpool didn't win that.

[Dan R]

Really underwhelmed by PSG. Liverpool were deserved winners by a lot more than the scoreline suggested but really need to be more clinical.

[ThomThomDrum]

Could watch that Firmino goal all day. Great turn... 

[JSmurphy]

Salah's reaction to Firmino's winner .

Yeah.....didn’t celebrate the “goal” he scored either although he maybe assumed it would be ruled out. Well deserved win.

[Wooderson]

All the teams that LFC play are terrible. Funny that innit.

[jyoung]

PSG tactics were a mess from start to finish. Surprised Liverpool let them back in the game but always thought at 2-2 there was a winner to be had so fair play to them for grabbing it. As I said, PSG were all over the place and did well to even get the two goals. When Ligue 1 is such a walk in the park is hardly surprising to see them struggle against a well oiled machine in Europe.

Also, Tottenham.

[ThomThomDrum]

It was obvious PSG were afraid to go for it. They were poor because they feared the break. Their number one priority was to try continuously take the sting out of Liverpool approach. With their front three there is a certain madness to that....however it nearly worked for em with the Pool not putting it to bed when they should have.
