Martial goal https://streamable.com/46kh It isn't anything particularly special, just another really cool finish.
He's also now equalled Falcao's tally for us in 2 starts hasn't he?
That strength, speed and finish. The Henry comparisons are pretty well justified in my opinion from what I have seen of him so far.

Smooth finish, I think he has now lol, was never a fan of Falcao to be honest.
As others have said I honestly don't see Rodgers being a Liverpool much longer, I think he'll end up at Newcastle!

Falcao was completely amazing. The ACL injury hsa somewhat ruined him, I think the biggest issue is the Monaco owner's divorce. Had he stayed at Monaco, had 30+ starts for the season he'd probably have found his form. Unfortunately the owner was getting divorced(I think that was the story) and so couldn't afford to treat Monaco as Roman treats Chelsea. they sold/loaned out the biggest earners and Falcao got shipped out. Where as Monaco would have played him first team he ended up trying to find his feet at new clubs with new team mates with almost no playing time.
He would have been so much better going to a Liverpool/Spurs, any team that could give him 30+ games a year and would put up with 5 crap games before he came good. Again the reason is finances, he was on such absurd wages at Monaco only a few teams could afford to cover them, or even half of his wages.
He'd probably be great again if he got consistent starts, no idea why Chelsea went for him after it became clear that if he was going to make a comeback he needed more games than he got at Utd.

Unfortunately it's true, he either needs to get himself in form or 'pick up an injury'.
Problem is he's worth wayy too much money not playing for us, someone said it a few days ago, he's the biggest manufactured English footballer at the moment, and not playing England's all time highest scorer would cost money.
I've always been a fan of Rooney but when he's not in form other players need to be given a chance.

5-4, Lovren with the penalty to keep us in the cup...
So I didn't catch much of the Arsenal game as I decided to go to the gym. However from what I did catch... did anybody notice that with 30 seconds of extra time to play, we're on a 3 on 3 break, the ball gos to Theo. Instead of running the ball into the corner like any intelligent footballer ever, he decides to take on a speculative effort from 18 yards and basically give the ball back to Spurs so they can have another go at us. He just doesn't have a football brain!
