Red TidePremiership Liverpool by Gerrardpool (U6728688) 16 December 2006 Chance after chance after chance. Liverpool flowed so well and should have scored more. The red tide is really starting to come in. That's three big wins on the bounce and although we might not be in the race for first we can still improve upon our highest ever Premiership points tally last season to keep the progression of the club going onto a sustained title challenge. The only real concern from today was the lack of goals per chances but I'm sure that will improve as the confidence comes rushing back. Liverpool are looking every bit the great side that they are and simply dismantled Charlton today. I don't recall seeing so many chances and what's more, I don't remember so a variety and creativity to them. Against Portsmouth a few weeks ago Rafa Benitez said that Liverpool had tried every way of creating a goal. Today they did that and more and it's extremely pleasing to the eye to see such well constructed and effective attacking moves. Latest 10 commentsRead members' comments or add your own

From what I've seen of yous in a few of your last games, even ones you've won, you don't have the same sharpness you started the season with. I was very impressed with your start to the season. You've played some swashbuckling championship winning stuff, and this is not just a kneejerk reaction to last night but I sense the machine needs oiling.

Chelsea seem to win when this happens, they have not played at there peak for the majority of the season but are still only 2 points behind. United have played some great stuff but they wont play like that all season.

United have been on top form so far this season but it is asking alot for them to go through a whole season playing the way they are doing at the moment. Players become tired, they loose form, injuries occur. The secret to winning the title is to win games when you arnt playing well, if united can do this they have a great chance.
