2-1 and we were very poor especially during 1H. It was so boring that I almost felt asleep. Luckily Rafa did some good teamtalk and we were much better during 2H. Yet when we were 2-0 up I still am not too sure if we will win, and we did conceded one and fortunately only one.
Looking back for the Festive period, we got 9 out of 12 points. Consider we played poorly in the Southampton and Norwich game and won (which should have been draws), and play well and lost to Chelsea (which we should won), We are still better off.
Player Rating:
Dudek: 7 His confidence is back. Even his distribution is better now. This is very important as Kirkland will probably out for the season now...
Finnan: 6 A poor game. He can't contain Huckerby at all...
Carragher: 8 Another superb performance. The so called handball event was never a handball.
Hyypia: 7.5 Sami was also very good in this game.
Warnock: 7 He's playing well as left back.
Nunez: 6.5 His crossing were poor, but I think he's a strong player with lots of strength. Maybe his best position is AM.
Gerrard: 6.5 A poor game from his high standard.
Diao: 6 As usual, scary.
Riise: 8 1 goal 1 assist. He is sure a midfielder.
Garcia: 7 I still think he should work more basic instead of tricks.
Mellor: 6 A poor game with no service.
Substitutions:
Sinama-Pongolle: 7 Have an instant impact when coming up that forced the 2nd goal.
Hamann/Traore: Not enough time to impress.
Rafa: 7 He must have some good teamtalk to turn around. Now he need to work on the transfer market.
Norwich: 6 They lack a proper striker and will probably go down unless they have a proper striker.
Men of the Match: Carragher and Riise, one for his defensive work and the other for his offensive work.
