Gold medal winners. Brilliant!

Will Sky Sports spin it that they took inspiration from the Rags win over Southampton; against all odds?

PS. Well done ladies, considering the opposition this is a brilliant result.

Most probably. It'll be on page 2 of the BBC site as well, after the 8 pro rag articles on the opening page.

You're right, the opposition were much better but they stuck at it. Plus those penalties are a great leveller. No football type centre half booting it up the middle and hoping. You need skill!

I think Sergio just gave you couple of reminders how easy it is to score penalties in football as it is...

Haha. Good point!

that new rag defender looks quite good i'm afraid to say.

Milner back from injury to start at LB. glad that he's getting the central positioning that he left for.

I see what you did there.

It's ironic really.

However, I wonder if Klopp will be using his full backs in the same way as Pep has started with us, in which case Milner will see a bit of action in the middle as opposed to being forced to ply his trade along the flanks.

If Klopp does copy His Pepness then Milner will be s defensive left sided midfielder with the ball or a left back when they don't have it. Either way he won't have the central role he wanted as he just isn't good enough to do that. Every team needs a yard dog though so I'm sure he will dig in and give his all.
