There is a lot of blinkers on today I say.
It was fantastic to get the 3 points today. That's all that counts right now, 3 points. We did however play very poorly, the team selection from kick off was [oops] poor cause Southampton should have had at least 2 goals going into half time and possibly one of ours sent off if the ref wasn't so blind. Our play was abysmal but I can live with that because we got what we needed. It would have been worse to play well and lose cause top 4 is the goal, and whilst we don't deserve the word mentioned in the same breath as us atm, they do say those who win when they play badly have the sign of champions.
Also lets hope Coutinho has finally found some shooting boots!
I think this is spot on, totally agree. Made up with the win but I thought the team selection was poor & we were crying out for a tactical change for about an hours with no presence up front at all (until Sturridge came on).
It's interesting that Rodgers would rather play Sterling up front (who is largely ineffective in that role) than Balotelli who's displaying his best form since joining Liverpool. Does that not say an awful lot, that Rodgers doesn't trust Balotelli?
