Congrats to Maxi on his 1st hat-trick but Suarez still man-of-the-match

Delighted that Maxi Rodriguez got his 1st hat-trick as Liverpool thrashed Birmingham City 5-0 at Anfield on Saturday. Maxi took his goals superbly and showed a real poachers instinct. Still the man-of the match for me was Luis Suarez. His movement and skill on and off the ball were simply excellent and he was involved in almost every forward move. Both Flanagan and Robinson thoroughly impressed once again with assured displays that belied their youth and seeing Joe Cole come on and score the fifth was great to see but with the talk of up to 22 potentials transfer deals both in and out of the club this summer it seems unlikely Cole will be with Liverpool next season.

With Roy Hodgson's West Brom getting a fine 2-2 draw at Spurs that chase for 5th spot becomes more and more a possibility, even though Tottenham have a game in-hand, but Liverpool now have a superior goal difference, + 12 vs +8. Plus Spurs are away to Chelsea next Saturday. The game against them at Anfield on May 15th should be something special.
