Everyone is playing better- but I think it's down to we're not being bullied on the ball. Other "lower 10" teams we've played this season have gone for the hack and slash technique and played physically. WBA has not resorted to that- as a result we're playing better. Teams that press us and physically attack us beat us. Those that don't- won't (as easily/).
2-2 between Swans and Mags. Right ding dong at the Liberty! Lucas for Coutinho. Defensive. Possible backfire?
Sterling needs a rest- great chance and great sprint from him... fresher and maybe that could have been a goal in an alternate universe.
Coutinho must get really disheartened. Never gets ninety minutes no matter how he plays. He's been very good today and didn't deserve to come off. Great control and through ball from Mario there.
Lallala was a boyhood toffee too? Maybe he will turn out to be good for us afterall! We have a good history of Ex Toffee fans becoming major Liverpool players and dedicated servants of our club. *cough*Barkley in January*cough*
Good link up play between Gerrard and Mario there. Decent left footed shot too. Balo is playing better
He seems to have moved forward with the introduction of Lucas. Wouldn't say he is suddenly the Gerrard of 2009 though
