0-0 and we missed a great chance to sit at 3rd place. Portsmouth has a game plan to come here and get one point, and they succeeded. Rafa is short of options currently because of the injuries, and the team just don't have enough tricks to break down the dead lock. We never really tested David James and he earned his first point at Anfield since he left. At the end the draw is a fair result, albeit a disappointed one.
