Matthew: Fantastic team performance by the Reds tonight! Three goals and an all important clean sheet! A great base from which to finish the job off next week.
David: Against an utterly brilliant City side, Liverpool put in an incisive, energetic attacking performance first half and excellently organised defensive shut-out second half - the perfect approach. Tie far from over, though.
Donald: I think Liverpool are Man City's Achilles' heel. On the flip side, a great night for Premier League managers who need the "how to beat Man City next season" guide.

That goal from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was a rocket. As soon as he put his laces through it it was heading into the back of the net.
In the team for England at the World Cup?

Tom: No way is this tie over yet. But Liverpool fans breathe it in, that's got to be the their best all round performance of the season.
Phil: Good win, but the job's not done yet. City are more than capable of winning 4-0 at their place.
Anon: Liverpool will score next week, City won't score 5. Tie over.

Liverpool 3-0 Man City
LiverpoolLiverpool captain Jordan Henderson: "We knew the atmosphere would be brilliant and it was, and we made the most of that. Second half they came at us more, we dropped deep at times.
"Our game is about working together as a team and we did that brilliantly. We all chipped in with the hard yards. It's only the first leg. I didn't make many fouls in the game so it's disappointing to miss out next week."
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: "It was a great start for us to go three up before half time, it set us up perfectly. The crowd, the atmosphere was unbelievable and that's why we started like we did.
"It was a good strike, it opened up for me and I have been working on that."

Keeping a clean sheet was massive for Liverpool once they had gone into such a commanding lead. They did it comfortably, too.

Robbie Savage
Ex-Leicester City & Wales midfielder on BBC Radio 5 liveWe've seen Real 3-0 up, tie is over. Real Madrid 3-0 up on Juventus, I think the tie is over. Barcelona 4-1 up. The tie is over. Bayern against Sevilla, the tie is over.
But is this tie over? No Henderson, is Salah going to be fit? I don't think it is over.

Image source, Getty ImagesLiverpool weren't threatening in the second half, but they didn't need to be. It was game management, protect that lead. Protect the back four. It was a game of two halves and they thoroughly deserve this.
No shot on target for Manchester City, unbelievable scenes at Anfield.

Liverpool 3-0 Man City
Jurgen Klopp sprints on to the pitch and has a hug for every member of his side. The noise rains down from the stands at Anfield. Encouraging signs for the hosts too as Mo Salah is out there on the pitch, tracksuit top on.
What happened to Manchester City though? Surely nobody expected that result, that performance. They had all of the ball but created next to nothing.
Is that tie over?

Outstanding performance and result for Liverpool.
Wigan, Wolves, Palace and now Liverpool are the only sides to prevent Manchester City from scoring this season.

Ben:I think we should be mindful about what happened to Man City on the way into the ground. No wonder they aren’t in their grove. It’s disgusting what’s happened
Mike: Wonder how much the events before the game affected City's first half performance? You could stop this by calling the game off and playing it at a neutral venue.

Jurgen Klopp is losing his mind down there, I'm not sure why. His side look spent, physically, but they are moments away from taking a formidable three-goal lead into the second leg with a crucial CLEAN SHEET to boot.
