I was really pissed yesterday after the game as most of you would have been,but i feel much better today(arsenal's loss helped a little
, as did the news that none of our players were injured)
IMO Rafa got it wrong with his tactics last night,but even so we created enough chances to win the game.It was just a matter of luck.
Had we got even ONE penalty decision ,we would have been 2-1 up,maybe even 3-1 (forget the fact that their goal was never a penalty in the 1st place) and it would have been a totally different game altogether.I also think that Rafa was right in subbing Gerrard,Carra and Torres when they got the 3rd goal,considering the 3 big matches coming up.
Anybody who says that we are out of the title race is stupid.
1.We have lost just ONE game till now.
2.We are just 7 points behind the leaders with a game in hand and with still MORE THAN HALF the season to play.
3.If you look at our record for the past few seasons,we have been very good around the next month or so.
4.Chelsea and Arsenal are going to lose some of their major players for the African Nations (Essien,Drogba,Toure,Eboue etc ...),so they will not find it so easy to win matches.We will just lose Sissoko (who i really feel needs to improve a lot,but thats not the point here).
Yes it was a bad result,but its not the end of the road...not by a long way.
Prediction:We will win our next 2 games
