Glad to see a comfortable win and be ready to face Arsenal!, Ings needs more game to get back to his sharpness, I am pleased for him because he was out for a long time.

Quietly confident of beating Arsenal in their own backyard, they've been poor and Wenger will come and play against us.

Special mention for the Ox, starting to show his worth. After Coutinho he's our most capable centre midfielder. Not sure if that says more about the midfield or him but still.

The Ox's workrate was off the charts, he didn't just half heartedly jog up to someone when he wanted to close them down he sprinted at them, he kept that up for the 90 minutes as well.
You can see why Jurgen identified him as a 'Klopp player' back in his Dortmund days.

He handled the reporters question to Coutinho brilliantly as well.

I love that Klopp has even said there was no point in rushing him into the squad with no training. He could become a really good player here. I'm a lot more optimistic than I was when we first signed him.

I liked Ox's presser too. Put the TV guy in his place, while defending Coutinho. Pure class.

I was actually more interested in Coutinho's silence and body language 

It is obvious where he wants to be but at least he is performing well on the pitch which is what we need.
It will be difficult to replace him and i am hoping we don't screw it up like we did with our previous players who left for spain.
