Sakho Ended up being a half decent pass but a risky one... Can is so composed, like him more every time I see him play.
Pot shots from outside the box don't count as half chances in my book. The only half decent chance we've had so far was Skrtel's effort froma corner
Fair enough. Stelring had a 1st time effort from 13 yards saved and Lallana smashed the rebound over from about 10 yards out (on the turn)
He tried to miss by hitting it right at the keeper Lovely goal though, all started with nice pass down the line from Sakho
We've been playing quite well. Coutinho leading things. He's a joy to watch when he's motivated. Moreno looking involved.
Shelvey should be off... clear Elbow. He'll be joining Cisse for a NYE party in the 3 match ban room.
Nearly Arsenal all over again with that free kick in the last minute of the first half.. thought we were about to conceded Mig took it well in the end. Coutinho is looking sharp tonigh
Decent half of football from the redmen that, would have called it good if we'd scored two instead of the one. Lallana had a couple of nice chances that he scuffed, not a natural finisher is he.
was unsure about the formation with Can in the back 3 but I was wrong. we've played well and bossed the game. I think we've looked more balanced with Manquillo and Moreno on and with Henderson in the midfield where he's been quietly effective. Coutinho has been his usual busy self and Stirling has put a shift in. all in all its been a good half
Think it's pretty much like it's been against United, Bournemouth and Arsenal. Lots of movement up top, quick passing and creating a few chances. Difference in this game is we've dominated the ball as well and looked reasonably assured at the back. Need to get another quick and then hopefully kill it off with a 3rd.
