Well done the lads and Kenny for picking the team. Similar set up as last season with better balance and better players that fit in to the team. Apart from the new players Adam and Enrique this team was like the one that finished last season and we looked good particulary in the 1st half. Bellamy is a must his speed of thought and movement is light years in front of Carroll who when he came on touched the ball four times, lost the ball four times and fell flat on his arse four times. Maxi is a clever player, in the right place, technically good and can score goals, Downing is an out and out winger which doesn't contribute to our style of play, his game is all rush and bang in a cross. Kuyt put in his usual 100% but his miss in the 2nd half with 10 mins to go was terrible, the teams better with him than Henderson but we still need someone better because for all his efforts he lacks the class needed in that position. Johnson good going forward and a great goal but Malouda was giving him trouble in the 2nd half and that cross shouldn't have been allowed to get in, Enrique as well got lost on the wrong side of Sturridge for the goal. But the day belonged to the lads and Kenny, great result just hoping a few home truths were noted |

yes,kenny found a great recipe last season.why he sought to alter it so much was baffling.reverting to that recipe will reap big results.starting with only adam out of the 4 was good to see as well.maxi taking 1 game to do what downing hasnt in 12. henderson coming on is probably all he should be used for.he cant be trusted to start.doesnt seem mature enough. It was a lot lot more like what is expected from an lfc team yesterday. |

Ridiculous and stupid. Henderson has done well this season and did very well when he came on. We put the ball in the net yesterday - that was crucial to tour victory. Reina's save from Ivanovic's header was key. Clinging on when Chelsea were in the ascendency after their goal was important. The result was superb, but we've played better this season and not won, so having a go at the players who were rested yesterday is bizarre. |

I think you'll find they weren't dropped. Kenny opted for pace and movement against Chelsea's high and immobile back line. Horses for courses. |

Pace and movement needed in every game. Andy came in yesterday and managed to trip over the grass four times. It was sad watching him. So clumsy |

It's sad listening to so-called Liverpool fans have a go at Carroll. |

We've played better than we did yesterday with him in the team. We got the goals yesterday, but we also withstood heavy pressure and but for a miraculous save from Pepe would have been behind just after they equalised. Perspective needed. We got the win and the three points, and I think we deserved it, but let's not forget why we got the three points. |

Carroll does not fit in to a team which plays pass and move, yesterday Carroll's movement was to fall flat on his arse everytime the ball went to him, just dont see the lad as a footballer that we can fit in, ok bang a few crosses over and his head might connect but to me he's got no technique, speed or predatory skills, get fed up slating the lad but if he was any good I wouldn't have to |

Carroll was brought on as a late sub, and we won, yet some still want to focus on his contribution late on. We've played better than yesterday with Carroll in the team. Every player is capable of making a contribution and we have a lot of options. This should be a springboard to a run of victories hopefully. Unbeaten in 9 games. |

Another lacking in nous. Carroll is here for the long haul, and will be a success. Thankfully the manager isn't from your school of managerial decision making. |

Let's shatter their "invincible" myth. We can do it, and we will do it. |

And why not comment on his contribution to the game - isn't that what he was brought on for ? All I saw was him falling all over the place and losing the ball, thought Heskey was bad at standing up but this lad yesterday was worse. |

We won the game and yet this has turned into an attack on Andy Carroll. Leave him alone ffs. |

We would if ppl like stop explaining how good he is when its in the open out there for all to see that hes compl overpriced. It was so comical to watch him yesterday falling over himself. |

every now and again players need dropping and managers like to call it resting players but in private have words with players who need a kick up the arse who are not doing there share and downing is certainly one of those players along with carroll ,was carroll rested yesterday ???????? was he fuck he hasnt deserved to be in the team and his 5 minutes on the pitch yesterday was enough to keep him on the bench falling over losing the ball the guy just isnt good enough but the blinkered just dont see it . |

so why are you saying rotation ? downing has been poor in his last few games maxi comes in and scores so whether he has been dropped or rested he shouldnt play in place of maxi who deserves to keep his place.only kenny knows the truth and thats the way it should be. |

Downing hasn't been poor. Maxi came in and done well, so he has staked a claim for a start in the next match. It is good for us to have this competition. |
