The Broadsheet Newspaper
"Two dismissals and nine other bookings preserved the Merseyside derby's reputation as the Premiership's most volatile fixture, although when the smoke cleared Liverpool comfortably overcame the loss of Steven Gerrard after a mere 18 minutes to record one of their most convincing victories over their neighbours. Andy van der Meyde's unnecessary red card evened up the numbers for the last 17 minutes, the substitute disappearing after just five minutes on the field for flailing an arm into Xabi Alonso's face, but Everton had an extra man for most of the game and still shipped two goals. Considering the first of them was an own goal by a former Manchester United player, Liverpool have rarely had such a good time at their rivals' expense, and although Everton did make a game of it with Tim Cahill's goal just after an hour, they were finally undone by a piece of skill from an assured Harry Kewell."

"Gerrard's 17th-minute sendingoff could have been a hammer blow to Liverpool's hopes of finishing second, but as it turned out it was the visitors from across Stanley Park who strangely seemed more affected by the red card. And boss Rafa Benitez argued that as Liverpool went on to win, he can relax in the knowledge that his captain has learnt an important lesson without paying a heavy price. The Liverpool manager believes that if Gerrard finds himself in a similar position in a similar atmosphere in a massive game like the FA Cup semi-final with Chelsea, or indeed during the World Cup, then he will remember this salutary experience."

"To watch us control the 2nd half against a full strength Everton with 10-men and one of our best players sent off, to me shows how strong we are. We could easily have had four or five. That was the most impressive factor especially our midfield with an average age of 22-years old. Weirdly I was surprised by how no one seemed to mention it in the newspapers. If that had been Chelsea they would be waffling on about how only a team that can dominate a mid-table Premiership team with 10-men could win the premiership. The thing is, I think the manager and players will realise how significant this match was and will give us confidence for the rest of the season."
