To be fair, the team didn't really perform badly. We completely dominated the game and created chance after chance. It may be down to luck, or just poor composure we've hit the post twice and had many other shots blocked near the goal mouth.
The only issue to address here is why we aren't taking our guilt edge chances and that is a question no-body can answer.
Glen Johnson had a terrible mistake though and that did overshadow a quite brilliant attacking performance by the RB.But after that, Reina just stood there and let the shot go in. Look at the replay of it, the ball hasn't even landed remotely close a corner, it was hit more or less in the middle but Reina just hasn't got the reactions any more and is getting by on pre thought out dives.
On a more positive note, Suarez is one of the most entertaining players ive ever seen in a red shirt. Some of the things he pulls off are sublime to say the least. Also Hendo had a decent game but maybe needs to be a bit more forceful. i think it was a mistake to have Spearing and Hendo in a 2 man midfield.
