First half was poor and we were lucky to go in level. Not because Leicester actually twatted us but because we didn't look dangerous. But a very good finish from Lallana, with his only decent involvement, got us all square. Second half was much improved.
Mignolet looked yet again like he was completely out of his depth at Liverpool. Brad Jones must be F***ing sh*t in training to not even get the occasional nod.
Manquillo coming in for the usual stick - though the majority of it is his attacking play. Didn't think he was anywhere near as bad as people made out.
Skrtel made Bjorn Tore Kvarme look like Sami Hyypia in the first half. Second half he was much more solid.
Toure was a little shaky first half but quickly grew into the game. Still don't feel comfortable with him in the team but this year, he's been better than Lovren.
Johnson was poor first half, worst second half. Their winger had him in knots at times in the second half. (also lost the ball for their goal up the pitch and didn't get back)
Lucas is obviously being praised by the usual suspects on here. He was alright. Nothing special. F***ing disaster for their goal by turning his back and being walked past. Numerous fouls (including Vardy's dive). Typical Lucas game really. Did alright but because it's Lucas, on here an alright performance from him is as good as Graeme Souness in his prime.
Henderson was totally oblivious first half, forgot he was playing. Second he showed his qualities. Got around the pitch, some good balls forward for a change and getting on the score sheet. Basically what a central midfielder should be doing.
Gerrard was man of the match by a mile. Influenced everything we did well today. Scored, should of had a penalty, took up the space on the left wing to get the ball across for the third. Chased down well. Picked up a silly booking though that probably put us under more pressure than we were had he not made the tackle.
Sterling was probably as good as he has been in a Liverpool shirt since early September. Pity Lee Mason has got a problem with him because Raheem was kicked to kingdom come tonight and given nothing. Maybe one of his 14 kids is to Mason's missus or something.
Lallana scored a very good goal but done F**k all else. Got booked because he tried to be clever very close to our goal and lost it (again). Got winded because he tried to be too clever rather than play the simple pass to the player in the space he'd made and then he lost the ball (again). And finally got taken off.
Lambert was very poor first half but thought he came into his own second. Also noticed the midfielders prepared to run on beyond him where they aren't with Balotelli.
Allen was useless when he came on but that's expected. The one chance he had to shine he passes the ball behind Lambert (who under hit his pass to Gerrard) and we lose all momentum in attack.
Lovren came on and we didn't concede. Not bad for 20 million.
