watched the game with a spurs fan who took it well...a really good all round team performance...gerrard was on commentary and must have though uh oh...could have been 7-0 at least....we kept it simple...thought the midfield of lucas, allen and henderson kept it simple and hugely effective...our defense was good as well...i was expecting a draw...and so well pleased...let's keep out concentration on...
I was expecting a draw at best too, Bart.
but like you say - a hugely effective midfield. And that was the difference IMHO
when do we ever totally boss the middle of the park, like we did today?
rarely, if ever.
I have always maintained that, we would only ever compete for the title again, when gerrard was at the end of his days (and minimally involved) or retired.
without him, we are more fluid, faster to break, more dynamic, more dangerous when in possession, more disciplined, and less predictable.
if we can go to grounds and play like this, we are going to there or there abouts.
but it is early days - this was out first away victory since September.
