Downing has put Liverpool 1 up already. Great work from Coutinho on the left.

[Nerf]

I know the jury's still out, and I don't wanna get ahead of myself, but Coutinho looks a cracking player.

I've only seen 9minutes and I like him already.

He's not a bad player, either.

Is this on Sky or ESPN?

ESPN - There's a Championship game on Sky.

2 assists and a goal from about 100 minutes of football is not a bad return. He has some great ideas too, just the not on the same wavelength as his teammates. Obviously that will come with time though. He seems to be what I expect Sterling to be in two years time, at which point he can transition into the No. 10 role.

ESPN.

2-0, Suarez.

[Baddar]

Another assist!

[Dan]

Ah, I don't have ESPN anymore :/ Buggers.

[Nerf]

Handbags!

Baddar, did RVP score today or has Suarez caught him up now?

[Dan]

Kagawa hat trick and Rooney. So no he didn't.

[Baddar]

Yeah, no RVP goal. Welbeck replaced him on 65mins with Tuesday in mind.

[Nerf]

Suarez free-kick, 3-0.

[Cymbols]

Al-Habsi own goal I'd say.

[Nerf]

Reina has made three incredible saves.

I'm not sure who'll claim the goal. The free kick was on target, took a deflection, hit the post, and then bounced in off Al-Habsi.

[Kingmaker]

Sounds like the young Irish lad Rick O'Shea will claim that one then.

[Dan]

If it hits the post then hits the 'keeper it's an OG.

[Nerf]

Yeah, I would agree with that usually, but I'm unsure of what happens when the initial shot is on target and takes two deflections on the way in.

[Nerf]

4-0, Suarez.

[ZJ Penn]

Unless its something obvious like Barry passing into his own net, I really dont see why they take goals off players.
