Allen is Lucas' challenger. Rodgers took a chance on playing both of them early on, and we looked too defensive in midfield. Until we sign a creative midfielder, then we won't do much against the big sides. Its simple really. He is our Carrick. Never going to set the world alight, but offers consistently good passing and interchange. I don't think he was terrible, because if you are playing forward balls to players who aren't running or holding the ball up, the passer is always the guy that looks poor. Downing and Sterling were short of quality today.

Allen is Lucas' challenger. . i have a feeling lucas sleeps soundly at night.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven

I totally commend BR for not only changing it quickly by bringing on Sturridge at half time.. In place of Lucas was a brave decision..
However bringing on Borini made me laugh (in a good way) That was a ballsy move and I commend him for going at them on their turf.
OK so he got the tactics wrong to begin with but certainly realised that and then went for them!
Not happy with the result, But second half we were clearly the better team.
I didn't expect anything from this game but gave them a fight in the second half. First time ever I am not too bothered by the result as I don't know at all where we are heading, hopefully we win next week, this is where our battles are now. A side note, don't understand the Borini change, is he even fit to come on such a game after 3 months, I think BR just wanted to give his boy some game time.

Downing finished the game with the worst passing accuracy of ANY outfield player.. 63%..
He needs to hurry up and pack his bags..

Maybe you expected too much flames. The reality is that they are league leaders and we are a club in transition.

A half fit Borini did more in half an hour than a fully fut Sterling did in 60 mins.. It was a moment of genius bringing him on. Almost scored with his first touch. Borini needs the game time so why not bring him on in place of a player who was poor?
