An incredible stat, they have finished the last two seasons incredibly strong, hope they don't finish this one in similar fashion. I thought they'd drop more points than they have recently but fair play they are doing well. He has really got the three at the back system working well for them, gives them the ability to outnumber teams in midfield and then press teams more efficiently and break on them quickly. City had good spells today but thought as the 2nd half went on Liverpool got stronger and stronger, after playing 120mins in Turkley impressive fitness levels.Â

Coutinho is a magical player, real bargain for 12m. I used to think he was a through ball specialist and not much else but he's shown he can score goals and a very hard worker without the ball (they have even used him in CM).
I thought the same of him as well, has really developed well. Before he was like a FIFA player, always trying the through ball and to be fair with Suarez/Sturridge/Sterling he had the runners but looks a much better all round player now.
