Another good performance, this time rewarded with the correct number of points.
Everyone had a good game, apart from Downing and Adam. Bellamy's set piece free kicks and corners are superb. Skrtel and Enrique were brilliant at the back and Danny did some great forward runs.
Jay Spearing did really well and Henderson is continuing his improvement after the horror show of the Swansea first half.
We were playing well until Gerrard came on - he just added that bit more quality. Within 10 minutes of being on he had put in 3 perfect crosses from the right wing, almost instructing Downing on what he should be doing. Charlie Adam was very poor. Looks like he has got lead in his boots. No doubt that he will be the one making way for Gerrard and rightly so.
Thought Carroll was slightly unlucky with his header on to the bar - although I swear Bellamy's free kick may have touched a strand of his hair on the way through....
All in all a great 3 points, only one defeat in the last 17 games and a world away from our last game of 2010.
Really enjoyed our football this season (and all 2011 really) - shame we don't have those few more points that we deserved but we're becoming very difficult to beat and that is the base we all need for success.
