0-2 and it was not a bad result actually. We held them for 60 minutes and then they scored with another deflection, then Crouch was sent off and game was essentially over. But we saw some flashes of good signs, like Itandje and Lucas played quite well. Anyway we will now play 3 less games and can concentrate on other higher priorities.
Players Rating:
Itandje: 7.5 Made a few great saves.
Arbeloa: 6.5 Solid defense.
Carragher: 7.5 Was unlucky to have deflected the goal.
Hobbs: 6.5 Solid display
Aurelio: 6.5 Did well.
Alonso: 6.5 Good to see Xabi back.
Lucas: 6.5 Offered a great chance but failed to score.
Sissoko: 5 May have seen his last game for us.
Babel: 5.5 Not much offered.
Crouch: 4 Silly tackle.
Voronin: 6 Didn't play well out of position.
Substitutions:
El Zhar: 6.5 A nice performance.
Benayoun: 6 Didn't do much.
Rafa: 6 Probably won't be too unhappy about the result. But perhaps 4-5-1 just doesn't work for us.
Chelsea: 7 Should have won this game easier with such a strong squad.
Men of the Match: Itandje and Carragher. Two rocks in the defense.
