It's as much a part of football as lovely attacking play. I saw it coming in the first half, if Chelsea scored first they would be difficult to break down after that. Rodgers should have had a better gameplan for it. You don't need coaching qualifications to work out the first goal is very important against disciplined sides like Chelsea.

Still think Liverpool will win the title but agree with Mourinho when he says they haven't had the extra games this year. If they win it this year, it'll take twice the effort next year to retain it, taking into account Champions League commitments also.

I wanted Liverpool to win this but still wanted Torres to put his laces through that and flip off the Kop. Mixed emotions.

I fucking hate it when teams play a short corner when they're chasing a game.

It's one of those things for Gerrard, I think he would have still tried shot after shot even if he wasn't trying to make up for an error.

Selfish and daft that from Suarez.

"My team" Fuck off Pardew. Absolute berk.

You can't rule out Liverpool because of Suarez alone, but I would hate to chase a goal against Chelsea especially in a big game like this. It's going to be frustrating as hell for them.

Gerard's had a canny few fuck ups like that in his career hasn't he? The back pass against France still pisses me off.

Such a classy finish. Still got huge confidence in Demba to finish when he's in that kind of position. Message from the Liverpool bench is, don't worry lads, we've got Newcastle here last game.

Hope he reads that.

Coutinho, go on your left ffs.

Nah, just a daft thing that West Ham fans started when he first broke through there, and it's stuck.

The longer it goes without a Liverpool goal, the deeper Chelsea will dig in. Liverpool really needed that first half goal today.

How fucking basic is that, I'd fucking throw up watching that if I were Cardiff manager.

I've watched a lot of his career, from the two loans at Ipswich to breaking through at Sunderland at left back under Keane. He's very tidy, he'll rarely lose possession but he isn't threatening enough in the final third. As a free transfer, I'd take him but we still need to strengthen there.

Terrible decision. The pull was outside the area. I think the refs thinking the touch that the pull effected was inside the box. Awful either way.

He's playing well.

Cardiff letting the ball bounce in the area, an absolute gift of a goal.

I love how the language used by the commentators changes come the end of the season. Brown makes a standard challenge to put it out for a throw - "he had to get that, he had to make that challenge." The bairn sat closest to it could have done that.

Dear me, Cardiff surrendered this from kick off.

Why would you hashtag the word 'at'? Sell him.

He's rejected talks a few times, going back to last season.

Non-mover.

Private equity arena? That the name of Boltons stadium now?
