I thought Milner was our worst player today, made a lot of unforced errors and gave the ball away many times.
- Henderson – by a mile
- Wijnaldum – disciplined midfield performance and an important goal, can't ask for much more.
- Mignolet – should have better for the free-kick, but penalty save was so crucial.
Portly, I normally think you are a sane man, with moments of genuine wisdom. But this is a mental top 3!
Milner had a bad day at the office, Firmino played well generally, but fluffed his chances badly, and Lallana had one of those days where absolutely nothing worked.
For me:
Hendo
Gini
Clyne
Henderson
Wini
Ming
Wini
Ming
I thought Lallana was abysmal myself, constantly made the wrong decisions, looking a yard of the pace all game.
Henderson on the other hand really showed how important he can be for this team when on song, if he can build from here I am going to include him as one for our 'Core'.
Hendo once again showed he is by far our best crosser. One issue with his deeper role is that he doesn't get into even a deep crossing position as often as you'd like, but he seemed to turn up there repeatedly last night. I'm not sure if it was a ploy to catch Moses out in the RWB role, but it was a clever tactic that led to the goal and a few other of our most dangerous moments.
I just don't agree. From where I was sitting in the Main Stand, Milner was doing a lot of good work and played a vital role in Wijnaldum's goal.
Portly I am now starting to seriously question your viewpoint on the free kick.
Yeah, he obviously played an important role in the goal, but he seemed to lose the ball much more regularly than usual, and was caught out of position a number of times too after sloppy play. We must agree to disagree dear chap (but I am right).
I think that anything that Portly said or did in relation to yesterday evening is up for debate.
I had to hang around outside the Main Stand for 30 minutes, waiting for my son to arrive from Tarporley. I had his season ticket. I could have done with a pee. I saw two old buffers being let out through a door by the turnstiles. There was a chap who looked like a drug dealer with "ASSISTANT HEAD STEWARD" on the back of his jacket. I asked the chap if I could go in the concourse, have a pee and come out again through the little door. "No you can't," he said helpfully, "once you are in you can't get out."
"I just saw two people being let out through that door," I replied.
"That was a ticketing issue" said the drug dealer.
Hahaha
Are you sure you didn't buy some stuff from him? Your entire evening seems a bit strange.
