Has anyone else noticed the spring in Lucas' step these past few games? He seems to eat up the ground and his reading and breaking-up of play is exceptional.
I've noticed that Moreno has improved greatly too. Lallana also.
Klopps the man!

I thought there was even an improvement in Allen and Lovren last night. Ok it was only against Bournemouth, but you can only play what's in front of you and so far there is obvious signs of players confidence and abilities returning.

Thats what has been fantastic for me is that even players who have been perennially underperforming are looking better. Allen played well in the second half, and I love Klopp talking to all the players afterwards on the pitch.

I agree on Lucas and Allen (someone I have been quite critical of before), his yellow was harsh, it was a tackle that turned in to a slip. In fact, there was a lot of slipping last night, not sure if this was stud choice or overwatering.

Also was that the highest number of interceptions we have had in a game?

Lovren I am afraid seems to be afraid of his own shadow, he really is a poor reflection of his former self.

I liked the look of all the youngsters, I thought they slotted in well, some of the things they were trying was great to see.

Ibe seems to have his confidence back.

Looked like Lovren picked up an injury just before Lallana was coming on, and Klopp was going to put Moreno on instead. but the 4th official had already put the numbers on the board and didn't seem inclined to change his mind.

not the best performance, but much to be encouraged by, Klopp said in post match that the boys only trained for 1hr with the new formation. So Saturday should prove to be much more interesting.

Origi needs to eat a few more steaks, he is too light to be up top by himself, his shooting pre match was solid, (I know its not match conditions etc) but sometimes the shooting they do prematch is terrible.

Origi i think is suited out in a wider position. Looks more comfortable getting the ball on the wing. He's quick and played his part in the goal from a wide position.

Good performance, Nice to get a win under our belt!

Thought Origi did ok last night up against Distin. Man U mate of mine said he thought he was weak but he seems like a big strong boy to me!

I wouldn't pick Allen for my Sunday side.

Allen should never play without a DM. He did that vs Rubin and in the first half last night and was dreadful. Only until Lucas came on did he improve slightly. IMO, Allen is a squad guy and nothing more. He offers little going forward, can't score, can't defend hence, not good enuff to start.
