seem petrified once we go into a lead and cant hold it for more than a few minutes, Rodgers needs questioning for bringing on a player like Skirtel whose confidence is shot to pieces, just asking for trouble as well as inviting pressure for taking off a more attacking player. At least the fourth place question as been put to bed once and for all even tho it was never on... Do you think so?? I agree that we were like that against Arsenal once we took the lead, but tonight once when we went 2-1 up, I thought we continued playing with composure and confidence and almost went 3-1 up. I have to say, I questioned the decision to bring Skrtel on myself, especially as it was for another defender and not a midfielder or striker. I wasn't entirely surprised though, because the man to come off was Enrique - who I thought was our weak link today. Milner had been destroying him down that side, and the change was obviously made to combat that. i just thought by leaving Enrique on it gave city something to think about as he is decent on the counter attack however bringing A shot to bit confidence wise Skirtel on just invited pressure and city took full advantage...

We've ot a good run of 13 games mainly against opposition that we can beat, the 2 hardest games are spurs and Everton, but they are both at home. If we play like we did today, we can win most of those games and things will be exciting towards the end of the season.

radio merseyside said enrique was injured and thats why the change happened , remember he has only just came back into the team and i personally thought he looked a bit sluggish just before the change .

no on else could have come on in that LB position tbf, it was the right decision. enrique was falling apart. Yep, I agree. I thought he had to do something about it because Milner's crosses were getting more and more dangerous. Skrtel made me nervous everytime he got on the ball, but unfortunately, putting him on at CB and pushing Agger to LB was the only option that Rodgers had available. Another LB has to be a priority in the summer.

Skrtel is terrible at passing from the back, it's so clear to see. Carra and Agger have passed really well from the ack but when Skrtel came on it went to crap again.

I just don't see him being a BR type of player. He had a great season last season, and was rewarded in the summer with an improved contract, but hasn't repaid the faith to the club, and has dropped in llevel instead. It looks like his resale value may have been at its peak last summer.
