Liverpool have moved above Swansea into 7th after a 5-0 win over a weak  Swansea side.

Swansea's last game before the Capital One Cup final next Sunday ended in a 5-0 Whitewash. Swansea manager Michael Laudrup says he is partly to blame for the defeat after making seven changes to the side that beat QPR 4-1 last weekend. 

The game was dominated by Liverpool from the first minute, they had penalty claims turned down before one was won by Luis Suarez after he was fouled in the box, Steven Gerrard stood up to take it and scored it to make it 1-0 to Liverpool.  Liverpool had more chances before half time but Vorm kept the score 1-0 at half time.

After 16 seconds of the second half Liverpool were 2-0 up when Philippe Coutinho worked his way though the Swansea defence and then took on the shot and it found a way past Michel Vorm in the Swansea goal

 Liverpool went 4-0 up when Luis Suarez went past 3 of the Swans defenders and curled the ball into the bottom corner away from Vorm in the Swansea goal.

5-0 job done!!

MANCHESTER CITY put Wednesday's Champions League disappointment behind them after beating Spurs 1-0 to put the pressure back onto Liverpool in the title race.  (C) Manchester City  City came flying out of the blocks right away. It didn't take long to get in front. Bernando Silva's cross found Sergio Aguero, who had too much space in the box and headed across goal for Phil Foden who headed in from close range after just five minutes.  That was Foden's first Premier League goal on his second ever Premier League start. City continued to create chances but failed to take them. Aguero thought he was in after being played through by Bernando Silva but he was flagged offside.  Paulo Ganzaniga came into the starting lineup as one of five Tottenham changes. He however, was looking fragile. He made a number of errors that only gave City confidence. Trying to chip the ball over a player five yards out was one of a number of things the keeper attempted that c...
