We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Liverpool and Brentford.

Here are some of your comments:

Liverpool fans

Ken: A composed performance against an obdurate opponent. Unlike yesteryear, there wasn't any chance of this Liverpool team relinquishing control inexplicably, as the passing and movement was efficient throughout. I quite enjoyed seeing out the game with minimum fuss. Whilst the tempo is quite measured, the dizzying attacking gear is still a sight to behold!

Marilyn: Some beautiful moves and great football! I would have liked more threats on goal late on, with other teams scoring big, but we seemed to settle for two goals instead.

Rex: Brilliant in parts - slick and fluid. We thoroughly deserved the points. My one criticism would be that we need to develop more of a killer instinct. We need to go for the jugular rather than over passing to each other in midfield. I can't help but think that Manchester City would have put more than two goals past them. Nevertheless, very encouraging and often very entertaining.

James: Encouraging start but, with all due respect to Ipswich and Brentford, the fixture list has been kind to us. Harder tests are coming up! We need our two second-half performances for the full 90 minutes - and let's stop talking about the difference between Slot and Klopp!

Brentford fans

Cliff: We were outmatched. We kept running into cul-de-sacs while Liverpool got the upper-hand with their wide passes. I can't believe I'm saying this but Mark Flekken kept us in this game. When are we going to make better use of our midfield talent like Damsgaard and Carvalho?

Jonathan: The Bees can hold their heads up high. There were some good performances and we created problems for Liverpool. Even after going 2-0 down, we didn't let our heads drop. Lots of teams will get nothing on trips to Anfield, so I think Thomas' boys can still look forward with confidence.

Nick: The Bees did well but were hampered by their own pink kit and a referee who gave most 50/50 decisions to Liverpool. The Bees will play worse and win this season - 2-0 away at Anfield is no disgrace.
