Still seething
Mig - Not asked to do much and can't judge the goals due to the poor stream I had
Toure - same, as in I didn't see anything glaringly wrong
Sakho - he's insane and it shows with his ludicrous approach to defending; scares me
Can - poor game, not even a shadow of the man vs Swansea - I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that Manquillo is a much better defensive wing-back than Hendo.
Hendo - If I was him I'd be screaming in the Gaffer's face after he was stuck out wide again after playing his best game of the season. Wasted.
Moreno - poor, no composure defending or going forward; looks shell shocked and seems to go to pieces when we're under the cosh.
Gerrard - 2 pens and still useless, utterly, and totally
Lucas - too slow, opposite players just don't seem bothered playing with him around them
Lallana - tried, not a great performance but also not a bad one
Couts - best player on the pitch, really tried breaking them down
Sterling - I am running out of patience with this guy as a striker. His shooting is woeful, and he consistently makes the wrong decisions. Passing when he should take a player on, taking a player on when he should pass, shooting when he should pass and so on. He also seems to get muscled off the ball way too easy for my liking.
Markovic - not enough time to judge but he really has to hit the target with that header toward the end.
Gaffer - messed it up big time today. Playing Gerrard meant Hendo doing his invisible man out wide, and Manquillo back on the bench scratching his head. Gerrard is past it, he's gone, he's a shadow of his former self. Everyone can see this, why can't he? Even if Gerrard proves me wrong and is not past it, right now he's a liability and needs dropping. He's not doing for LFC what Lampard did and is doing for Chelsea/City. That's nobody's fault, that's just age and how different athletes get affected by it. At best he should be coming on with 20 minutes to do 'if' it's not working out.
And how many games do Gerrard AND Lucas have to play together before the Gaffer realises that the pair are too slow? They can't get to the tackles, they can't even close down, and players are running around them and at our defensive '3'. Can for Lucas every time.
If he ever plays Borini again I'll have a seizure. Ojo watches that from the bench and thinks 'I'm better than that'. Definite.
The system worked great against a Swansea side who are much better than bottom of the table Leicester City. It was changed to accommodate a 34 year old player and as a result we were extremely lucky to get 1 point.
