It's obvious, but we really do need to get the ball in his area more often. Last season we got the ball in the box a lot more, and Cissé did well because of it.

yeah, he was good today. I don't know how he beats players sometimes though. Looks so leggy and out of control and then just drifts past two men at once

I thought he was fine today tbh. I thought it was generally accepted that he will lose the ball a fair bit, but what he otherwise provides is far more important? At the end of the day, he set up our only goal with sublime skill that no one else in our team could've managed

aye, MOTM for us I think. Anita was good too.

Tyler willing Liverpool to score

how the fuck did he do that?

hopefully keeps this up. Have no doubts he'll be a good player if we play the right formation and he plays his right position on a consistent basis.

that's why we're playing him as a striker!

need to swap Ba and Cissé, like. Ba will be more involved deeper and Cissé can actually do what he's good at

His proper position. Think he's only actually played there when we've had another DM on the field at the same time, so it'll be interesting to see him play how and where he's meant to.

inches? It was about two feet away from going in man

AMBITION

Colo Might as well have had a shot

what the fuck is Quinn talking about?

Gerrard desperate to score today. Self important cunt

dunno, but we should consider sticking Ben Arfa on his side.

Wish we'd signed Granero. Such a good player

I've kind of come to appreciate Nolan in his absence. He brought a lot to the team, and would have been useful in a lot of games we play. Shame he wanted such a long contract here, really.

yes

so inconsistent

nah, he was great.

Think it was Everton (?) at the back end of last season where he came on at HT and looked class. His passing was immaculate and really put them under pressure.

aye, but at least he made the bench

I can only think there's an issue between this guy and management. Not getting a look in at all after that poor 45 minutes.

I'm pretty sure Beardsley is perfectly capable of coaching players to pass and move like. As if they'd need coaching something as daft as that this age though, you learn it when you're 7.
