0-2 and we did not win in the last 4 away league games - 1 draw and 3 defeats. The fatigue factor now kicks in, and we also make lots of mistakes. Rafa need to sort it out ASAP.
Once again we misfired despite creating lots of chances with no Gerrard to score. And the defense unit just fail as a whole. And after the 2 goals conceded Charlton just play counter attack comfortably and almost hit us with another 2 chances.
We should still be able to finish 2nd though as there is still lots of games remaining.
Player Rating:
Dudek: 5.5 A poor comeback. Maybe guilty for the penalty, and was beaten at least twice in 2H but the goal post saved him.
Finnan: 6 One of the better player.
Carragher: 5.5 Lost his temper after the first goal and then partly guilty for the second goal.
Hyypia: 6 Time to score, Sami.
Traore: 5.5 Not too bad.
Cisse: 5.5 Starting to see some flash in 2H but then was substituted.
Alonso: 6.5 Create lots of chances for the strikers but no fruit.
Sissoko: 6 Played well defesnsively, have 4 shots but none on target. Isn't he a striker before in France?
Kewell: 6 His tricks doesn't work this time.
Crouch: 5.5 Failed to make any impact.
Morientes: 5.5 Mystery of not being substituted.
Substitutions:
Fowler: 5.5 Failed to make any impact at all.
Riise: 5.5 Not much he can do.
Kromkamp: Not enough time to make a real impact.
Rafa: 5 He needs to motivate the team and find someone to score ASAP.
Charlton Athletic: 7 You have to give them credits. Despite us controlling at least before the 2 goals, they were tightly defending and also play counter attack well in 2H.
Man of the Match: Alonso. But just the better one in a poor team performance.
