So try posting about it then instead of following me around, genius.
You'll last.
Gerrard was poor tonight. You can't hide behind reputation, as Carra has proved in the last month. Gerrard doesn't set a good example as captain. I don't care what he did in the past, it's only about the next game. That's how we won all those titles. 20 b***ard years.
I thought we defended brilliantly up until that one lapse which cost us a goal. Seems this season that whenever we lapse at the back we concede. We never get away with it. So let's stop lapsing.
As for N'Gog upfront on his own. I agree he was poor and I know I had a go at a few for saying so, but with better support he looks quality. And as RedKenny said - if Babel would have played he'd have faded after ten minutes and moaned until he was subbed. In fact, I'm surprised he never asked to come off after he hit the bar. He's only ever going to be an impact player.
We lost. I don't think we deserved to lose. Look at what Pepe Reina had to do tonight...virtually nothing. As I've already said, it's all well and good keeping it tight and hoping to nick one, but you have to have the offensive part in the tactics and setup of formation to do that. We didn't. And for long periods of that game I was sat thinking, 'F**k, if we go one down we won't come back from it'. And we didn't.
