Great to wake this morning and see the result. Have watched a few highlights and it seems that we looked good for the first 15 mins until Enrique went off and then struggled but looked better when Diame came off. Don't really care whether we were totally sh1t because we have on other occassions been 'fantastic' and lost so i think it's about time we had a win after an average showing.
Positives for: 3 2ins from 3 games, 1 loss in 11 games, won palying average, won without goals from Suarez. Lets continue to move onwards and upwards and it's amazing to see that we are only 4pts from 4th spot and only 7pts from 3rd.
It's now up to FSG to see what they really have and whether they will now invest in the squad.

We played really well for the first 15 mins and then Jose went off, we were poor for the rest of the game, great goal by Cole, lucky touch by Shelvey... But, 4 pts off 4th and a real chance to climb by christmas.... Thanks mate for what looks like a genuine non-biassed feedback

The only teams who have more points than us in the last 11 games are United and City.
We are getting consistant, Have been controlling the ball for about 2/3rds of each game. Getting Clean sheets.
This was our first win after a Europa Tie. Now we dont have any Europa games until Feb. Out of the Carling Cup and Have a easy FA Cup Tie in Jan.
Things are defo looking up. The players have on the whole responded well and to think Allen and Gerrard have been playing poorly and Lucas is only just coming back from injury. Our midfield play should improve over the next few weeks.
I've been saying for weeks that this run of games can define us as a club for the next 2-3 years. The run of games coming up are that important.
I would have been happy going into Jan 7 points off 4th, We're now what 11 off second?
I've always said that we should be setting the bar at those tops team and not just settle for second (4th) place being our target.
So if we get to Jan and we are 7 points off second. Which should put us 5th or thereabouts FSG MUST GET OUT THE CHEQUE BOOK AND MAKE INVESTMENT IN PLAYING STAFF!!!!!
The reverse could happen though, They might think we are doing well and decide against any changes unless sales take place first, As far as I am concerned they owe us £20 million before sales. Getting rid of Downing and Cole should make £30 million available.
Onwards and upwards, 5/1 we get fourth place now! Let's push things forward!

That they think to themselves, "oh well, we are travelling along quite niceley so we don't need to invest too much!" I hope that they realize, that if they do invest, it will give us a much better chance of snatching that spot! We can only hope!!

If come February that may very well be the case but why are so many posters issueing statements is they are true? It just causes agitation and soon becomes fact. The media must love you guys as you are such drama queens.

Did not see the match but looking at some brief highlights it seems we were battered by the hammers. I'll take winning ugly over performing well, hitting 30 shots on goal and still taking only a draw. Well done to the team. I think Gerrard needs a holiday, he has been terrible.
Back to Back World Champions baby!

Loads of positives to take from yesterday, maybe not performance wise.
4 Points off Fourth Back to Back wins for the first time in ages Winning without playing well, something we've failed to do in a while Team showing they don't always need Suarez
Hopefully this will show FSG that if they invest wisely this January that 4th will not be out of the question, other teams have not been up to scratch this season and FSG need to capatilize on this opportunity and will recoup the money and benefits from CL football.

Hmmm, if I perform really poorly at work for a few months I wonder if I'll be allowed to fvck off to the bahamas without a care in the world.....
