Coles work ethic is gonna go down a storm if he carries it on into the PL
Poor opposition, in fact my friend sent me a photo of their players buying boots at lunch time today in JJB Sports! Nevertheless, promising performance, Gerrard seems to be enjoying himself, cole looks sharp and Ngog played well all round.

It's on the Liverpool tv channel too, I'm watching it on there as the itv commentators get on my wick
Much prefer the biased Liverpool commentary I bet
Have they said this is your year yet?

Not yet
Seriously though, I don't think anyone is counting their chickens just yet, this is Rabotnicki afterall, but a good performance so far regardless.

Oddly I usually find that their commentary is quite unbiased, when required they criticise, when required they praise. Often I find them more objective about a match than many of the more general commentators

Cole looks a massive upgrade from Yossi so far. Keeps possession far better and passes before running in to trouble. Link up play with Gerrard has been excellent.
Pacheco started slowly but gradually got in to the game more. His best position is behind the striker though so we probably won't see the best of him while Cole's on the pitch.
Ngog is infuriating to watch. He's got pace to burn, height, strength and his positional sense is exceptional but he falls to pieces whenever he's got time on the ball.

Yeah I thought that too, they have paired up several times extremely well, like like they will make a great duo.

Jovanovic off for Maxi. Very impressive Anfield debut.

Are you kidding Red Clive has been bang on form tonight, gushing over Liverpool from the bits of the game I've seen

Maybe we've just seen different bits of the game then, or maybe we simply have different definitions of objective commentating. From what I have watched tonight on Liverpool tv they've praised the robot nicky players when deserved, praised Liverpool players when deserved, criticised liverpool players (such as ngogs decision making) when deserved. Seems fairly objective to me and certainly no worse than the objectivity levels of other channels.
Unless of course you mean clive tyldesley. But he doesn't commentate on Liverpool tv

That looked like a penalty 
Excellent defending by Kelly. Going to be a massive player for us in the future.

Don't know, watching the slow mo replay it looks like he was already going down before the tackle came in, in fact looking at the slowmo from behind I'm not even sure there was contact.

Thought Jovanovic was the best player tonight. Nice and direct and a lot faster than I thought. Formed a very good partnership with Johnson and looks like he'll be a real asset for us this season.
Cole also played well but he had so much time and space it would've been impossible for him to look poor tonight. Won't have it anywhere near as easy in a Premiership game.

Comfortable performance; had nothing to do defensively but we played some nice football in attack. Kelly, Jovanovic and Cole were the 3 stand out players for me.
RB, LB or CB, he's looked class wherever he's been asked to play.
