Only 2 words to sum up this game.
HEART ATTACK !

Cheers. As long as someone does it. Pre-match, match and post-match threads should coincide with all matches.
It looks like we missed Henderson. Our midfield was being bypassed very very easily. Defence looked shaky as fuck. Just like earlier in the year. I cannot but help think that if we defend so poorly against chel$ki, moaninho will walk away from anfield with the points next week. We have to do better defensively. Can Agger play DM instead of Lucas?
Sterling is getting better with each game. It's getting to the point where I'm expecting magic from him.
Our defence needs to be better, mind.

The defence found themselves under too much pressure today and couldn't cope. We didn't seem to have the legs or assertiveness to push them back and some of that blame has to fall at the feet of Allen and Lucas. The latter was particularly ineffectual I think and demonstrated why he's been used pretty sparingly since coming back into the squad. We badly missed Henderson and are probably going to feel that loss even more against Chelsea.
Sakho looked clumsy again and for some reason the ref was kind enough to not blow on one or two occasions when he'd taken the player out.
Flannagan got caught out too many times but on the plus side made some nice runs forward. It always surprises me the way he can take out a player and run past them - still don't expect it from him.
Johnson... very disappointing, what can you say. There were several moments in that second half where you just wanted to slap the guy and wake him up. Then slap him again just for good measure.
As for Ming, I don't really know. He's not bad enough to warrant going out and spending 15M+ on a replacement but he's not a top class keeper.
Sterling MOM by some distance followed by Skrtel.

I don't know what you expect Allen to do in the second half, when he couldn't get a chance to touch the ball at all. We were busy hoofing it from the back, or Johnson was busy giving it away at every fucking opportunity he had. Johnson needs a fucking kick in his head. "You want a new contract playing like that? Here. BAM! Wake the fuck up!"
As for the first goal - I can't blame Skrtel; I think he was going to challenge for the ball and then ducked out after he got the call from Mignolet. Mig's punch was really weak shit. You wanna come for the ball, fucking punch it like you mean it.
Sakho and Lucas are lucky boys there today; Sakho with his stupid foul in a dangerous position (again) and then Lucas with his own rendition at the death.
Great result but we probably sent another 35 fans to ER today with that shocking performance in the second half.
I agree.
We went away, and won, again. That makes it 11 wins on the spin.
Despite nervy moments and a hugely respectable effort from Norwich, we were ahead for 87 minutes of that game.
Top of the league with a 5 point lead. 3rd place guaranteed. 7 points needed with 3 games to go, and two of them are at Anfield.

I thought Flanagan's close control was fantastic at times. He gets forward at good times, is tidy enough with the ball, and fairly good enough at defending. He's surprisingly good at finding space when there is none to pick out a pass, especially when going forward.
Can't see Chelsea pressing and pestering us like Norwich did, the Norwich crowd was great for them also, really pushed them on.
Bar the first 10 minutes that was a fucking horrible game to watch, who knows what we were doing out there for the majority of the match?
Sturridge could be back for Chelsea.
I am worried Chelski have more quality and will punish us.
No he isnt (Agger - Sakho)
But there is no point in overanalyzing this game. Look at how City and Chelsea struggled against Sunderland.
Imagine the nerves in our young team knowing they could go 5 clear. It resulted in quite a few mistakes and we missed Henderson.
Lucas, sadly, isnt as good as Hendo in that position but did an alright job.
A win is a win. And winning ugly wins you titles. For the record Norwichs first goal should have been disallowed. Johnson caught Mings leg and thats why Johnson beat him to the ball.
Glenjo was very disapointing though. You expect so much more effort with the title in sight.

Modo you are more interested in petty point scoring than anything else, having a look at the match thread at half time its almost like you you want Sakho to screw up so you can justify your patheticness.
Not sure whats more pathetic, you or Red Mullet and his obsession with everyones writing, have a word with yourself.
