Enrique not on long enough for a mark.
Good team selection.
Can't believe we let a two goal lead slip...
I like Mancini's hat.

hendo gets an 8

carra gets a 7

the rest get a 5 cause they are lazy.

BR gets a 4.5 for not doing enough to shore us up when we went two up.

Rodgers royally cocked this one up at 2-0. How many times!!!! When you are up do not sit back and invite them to attack. What a annoying match.

What's even worse is that spurs slipped up as well. We could have been within spitting distance of 4th. We STILL haven't beaten a single team above us in th league this season.
That said, most of us would have taken a point at the start agaibst superior opposition so we shoudn't be too angry.

I'm all for whole numbers:

Pepe Reina 8 - did everything expected of him, and a few key saves

Glen Johnson 7 - Got forward less than usual but solid defensively until the onslaught

Daniel Agger 8 - Did very well. He brought the ball out of defence and eased pressure at key moments

Jamie Carragher 8 - Again very well, and all the more impressive given a lack of game-time

Andre Wisdom 6 - At fault for a couple of questionable decisions and I question Rodgers for keeping him on

Lucas Leiva 7 - Solid display. Passing iffy at times but got stuck in as necessary

Steven Gerrard 8 - Another good display. Got back when needed, made plays when needed.

Jordan Henderson 9 - I felt he did very, very well. Held up the ball. Passed well. Constantly pressing, and scored his goal which despite a bit of luck, was because of a couple of turns reminiscent of Gerrard in his early days. Very good.MOTM

Luis Suárez 8 - As good as Gerrard, integral to key moments up front. Felt his respect and questioning of the decisions and bad challenges was much better, in a game where with the big swing in Arsenals favour, we stopped getting decisions up top.

Daniel Sturridge 7 - Maybe would have had an 8 if he had remained on the field. Held up the ball as well as anybody on the field. Maybe could have done better with a couple of chances, but his runs were a constant threat up until his withdrawal.

Stewart Downing 7 - Despite his couple of good moments, overall he was solid. Maybe not quite as good as he has been at times, his cross in the first half was poor, and a couple of his passes were similarly wayward, but did well tracking back, and our right side was arguably tighter than our left, until Wisdom was left alone when Downing had pushed forward.


Jose Enrique 6 - He was solid without too much time to impress.


Good team selection. Maybe should have freshened legs after the two goal slip... Enrique for Wisdom might have given a better base for pushing on, but the less risk strategy helped shore up their play for a short while.

Mancini looked like the best Inspector Gadget impersonator in the country...

That's a myth. We were only 2 up for 2 mins and 24 seconds. He's BR he's not Usain Bolt

reina 7 - good
johnson 7 - good
wisdom 6 - ok
agger 5 - at fault for 1st and maybe even 2nd
carra - 8 motm
lucas 6
gerard 7
hendo 6 - would have got a 7 but for 3 or 4 sloppy passes
suarez 7
sturridge 6
downing 5

I thought we were sh1t all round - the second half was propper painfull to watch..

A team total of 3.






Mancini's hat was a highlight.
