Croatian coach Slaven Bilic gave his verdict on Saturday (29th August) after guiding West Ham United to a 3-0 win over Liverpool - their first league win at Anfield since 1963.

While Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers spoke of his disappointment as his side suffered their first defeat of the new season.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager:

"when you give away a goal so early in the game, it gave West Ham the boost and the lift that they needed, because they have shown in their two games away from home now that they can sit in and defend in a low block well. That seemed to set us back a bit.We obviously then conceded a second goal, which was difficult to take. All of a sudden we were right up against it. Coutinho getting sent off, which I thought was extremely harsh."

SOUNDBITE (English) Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager:

"We hope to be better, our own performance level. There'll be lots of games like that I'm sure. So we've got to find a way in the training field in order to keep that patience to dominate the ball to circulate the ball quicker in order to exploit it. So, that's the nature of the season but there's still a long way to go yet."

SOUNDBITE (English) Slaven Bilic, West Ham United manager:

"If you do it, and I thought we did it in style. We didn't nick it. Great performance in 90% of the aspects of the modern game. Of course it's more than three points"

SOUNDBITE (English) Slaven Bilic, West Ham United manager:

"It's one of those games or days that will be written in the history books of the club - 52 years, Liverpool away, 3-0."

SOUNDBITE (English) Slaven Bilic, West Ham United manager (on Mark Noble's sending off):

"This one for me, with the greatest respect to the officials and this is just my opinion - it's not a red card."
