Liverpool were given the perfect start to the match after some bad goal keeping by Ben Foster after a Spearing shot fell to the recalled Maxii Maxi had not choice but to place in the ball in the back of the net net. This was just the start that Liverpool needed and it came after a frantic opening 7 minutes when we looked very lively. This team is full of runners and every time Birmingham had the ball two or three red shirts were on hand to close them down.

What a battling performance by the men in black at the Emirates. Liverpool ended the game without captain, vice-captain and big target man. We also had two "kids" at the outside full backs yet if there was any team that looked liked scoring in the last 20 minutes it was us.

22 Years ago today 96 Football Supporters lost their lives by simply attending a game. These 96 supporters are gone but they are never forgotten.

Please take a moment today to reflect on this.

I don't know how Liverpool can look like relegation fodder one week and Champions the next. Last week against West Brom we were just brutal to watch and this week against one of the Top Guns in the Premier league we were scintillating.

That was Liverpool's worst performance under Kenny Dalglish and the most disappointing by far. West Brom played us off the park at times, which is quite unbelievable considering who they are managed by. Their second goal came from a typical Roy Hodgson long-ball but with Sotirios Kyrgiakos struggling it was a wise plan.
