Match thread: Norwich - Liverpool

[Whirly]

Completely needless risk going on that dribble by Johnson, been bailed out by a foul twice now for his poor decision making.

 

[Judge Jules]

Apparently he has better ball control than Agger

Apparently you traded in what was left of your brain for a tape recorder on permanent loop.

 

[Mamma Mia]

Allen working to win the ball back brilliantly.

Joe Allen has been outstanding. Lets hope he doesn't have his usual 2nd half slump.

It's a crusty wank sock.

The first three pages are dedicated to Aquilani and his goal against Atletico Madrid.

 

[Whirly]

Compared to Allen, Lucas doesn't look like he's contributing very much.

Not entirely sure that's a fair comparison considering how well Allen had done this first half, but I think Lucas needs to be more involved.

 

[Farkmaster]

What a beautiful series of passes. Coutinho goes for the Suarez curler from the left.

 

[Molbystwin]

Nice move ..... deserved a goal...

 

[Farkmaster]

Smart foul there from turner, takes a yellow.

Depends what they've each been asked to do. Overall we haven't really missed Henderson, for which Lucas deserves his share of credit.

 

[C/O]

It comes off as extremely insecure.

 

[Hansern]

More of the same please in the 2nd half.

Now I have to take a shite as my arse is truly gone with all the excitement and nerves

 

[Markeh]

Sterling
Allen
Skrtel

Half time motm choices.

I can't speak to whether its Henderson, but our movement when our back four is being pressed is not quite as it has been, through the center. More of our counters have come playing down the wings.

Too. Much. Information.

 

[Mamma Mia]

Sterling, Allen, Skrtel, and Gerrard have been fantastic

 

[cloggypop]

Lucky beer for second half I think

Fair point, but I suspect we might have played this game a tad more conservatively than some anyway.

 

[C/O]

What are Coutiho's chances of going to the World Cup?

Don't follow Internationals much, but surely he has to be there

 

[doctor_mac]

Coutinho. Allen and Johnson have all been guilty of dallying on the ball or the odd poor touch. Can't complain too much though, as we still look sexily dangerous.

 

[darkstarexodus]

We have let them have too much of the ball. Would really like to put them to the sword.

This. There's been times where Lucas's lack of pace has been exposed. There were a few balls we really should've been getting to and breaking with, but Lucas's lack of interchange play ability has hurt.

I think Lucas is better suited deeper, where he had time to read the game and make a decision, he's quite poor in tight areas.

 

[Farkmaster]

That tackle from Snodgrass looks worse on every viewing.

 

[Oncy]

I think Allen has been magnificent.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Half time thoughts:

* Should I start a new thread on Sterling?
* SKittles - MoTM so far. Just absolutely dominant and winning every duel in the box.
* Another excellent defensive performance so far from Gerrard -
* Suarez - 30 ... WOW.
* Lucas needs to give us the same as Allen is on the left. He's have an average game.
* GlenJo - I think he needs to step it up too - lost the ball a few times and is just better than this.
* Miss the duracell bunny.

Apparently people get butthurt quickly around these parts.

 

[Modo]

Can't agree more. He's all over the pitch.

 

[Whirly]

I keep seeing ads for "the official timekeeper of Manchester United".

I don't even, but I want us to get one now.
