Liverpool 5 - 0 Birmingham City
Maxi Rodrigues got 3 (woo), Kuyt got 1 (again!) and Joe Cole got the last one after he came on for Maxi.
Liverpool haven't beaten Birmingham in 7 years. Dalglish comes in and we get 5 goals, a hat trick from someone who hasn't got many for us yet, and from Joe Cole who has struggled more than we thought.
The youngsters did great again, young Flannagin as usual, Spearing, and Jonjo Shelvey for the brief time he had on the pitch.
And to make it better, Uncle Woy equalised against Spurs which helped close the gap to that European spot. And, although it's not as realistic and should be seen as a bonus, the 4th spot is still possible. I don't see us getting 4th, but stranger things have happened (such as fighting for Europe just after fighting to stay in the Premier League).
