Well, it has been a fantastic start to the season for Liverpool – 4 games, 4 wins, including 3 League wins. Today’s emphatic win, thanks to another Sturridge strike, was all the more satisfying as it came against the scum. We were unfortunate not to beat them last season, and today, like the other games we’ve played so far this campaign, we commanded the play for long periods. A frenetic start saw Sturridge pounce onto Agger’s flick, and the pace continued throughout a typically fiery derby. Both sides came close, with Coutinho, Sterling, Giggs, and Van Persie all coming close. Thankfully, it wasn’t a dirty game, with mostly fair tackles flying in.
The second half saw the scum having more of the ball as we backed off a little, but our defence held strong with Skrtel giving a fine comeback performance. It’s our best start to the League for some time, and we’re sitting where we should be – at the top. Long may it continue.
