Hell of a game! :wink:


Yeah....that was good stuff.

Durant looks so much happier on that team. I tell ya....West/Kerr have really developed a great culture there. You could totally see the other Warriors players making sure Durant had the night he wanted. How many teams do that? To the new guy? Durant's not just any new guy....but Curry and the gang certainly don't need to defer to him. Yet they took up Durant's quest...and made it all their quest. I thought that was pretty cool.

It was too bad the game got out of hand. It was chippy....and woulda been a great slug-fest had it been a 5-point game.

If they don't win it all this year players won't be happy and they'll break up.

Maybe Klay gets moved for a big. But I just don't see the team breaking up.

Yeah....they need a big. Pechulia is pretty bad. Klay's in a funk, but once he gets out of it, they'll be rolling again. I also think you gotta give them 30 games or so to get comfortable with Durant. It's no worry....you basically win 3 games over .500 and your in. They have time.

Such a shame we conceded a goal!! Man.....I was looking for that clean sheet today. Woulda been a perfect game.

More good attacking....more so-so defense. It was not a strong team, and we just rolled them. Karius made some nice saves today. We're top of the table! I like it. Now we just gotta stay there!

Fun game. First 15 were kinda slow, and then it took off.

Sturridge could have had a hat-trick yesterday. Important to give him and Origi some minutes in the upcoming games, cause we´re gonna lost Mane almost all January due to the Africa Cup of Nation

I still think Sturridge is one Premier League goal away to set the League on fire.

Yeah, I don't hold out much hope for Sturridge honestly. I believe he moves on come the summer.

It seems Klopp´s training methods has made Sturridge´s body stronger, so i hope he can stay fit all year.

When fit, he´s still one of the best strikers in England, and if we want to challenge for the title, i´m pretty sure we´ll need him.

Klopp's system is dependant on the front man doing the pressing when we don't have the ball. Unfortunatey Sturridge does not have the legs for it. £28M from West Ham and we'll let him go

and what are the chances of that? Every team has a few players at AFCON so they won't want to let anyone worthwhile go.

He may or may not be one of the best strikers in England but that really isn't saying much at the moment is it?

Well he hasn't been a good striker for years but you can put that down to injuries if you want. He's been embarrassing for England in recent games - basically a ball greedy hog playing for himself and not for the team to win. But that's only my opinion. :wink:

I think that goes for "England"....not just Sturridge. England has underachieved since I can remember. They throw out an All-Star squad...not a team. So many ego's...expectations...etc when a coach picks the England squad.

He falls short, talent-wise...but I'd take a team full of Milners over any England team I've seen the last 20 years.
