Not surprised. He's our only creative outlet along with sterling. I can see him getting burned out soon
Every time Chelsea attack I'm worried because they look dangerous, every time we attack I just know it's only a matter of time until someone makes a bad decision and gives the ball away, Or Gerrard tries a hollywood/thinks he can actually score from open play.
Well, anyone seeing us last another 30mins like this? Great game for neutrals (and chav fans since they still have 11 men) but **** me, I can't keep still.
Can't see us scoring tonight. Suspect it will peter out to 1-1 and Chelsae will go through. Thought we played really well until Sakho & Marko went off. Gerrard has had it and should be subbed as he is not challenging at all in midfield, but Coutinho is also knackered so we will still be carrying one. If Lovren is on the bench he could come on and Can move into midfield?
We need to score now. we might as well throw everyone forward. Chelsea scoring does not make a blind bit of difference. So no defending needed. All out attack.
We didn't but we could have switched to a back four after Mario came on: Migs Johnson - Can - Skrtel - Moreno Lucas - Hendo Sterling - Gerrard - Coutinho Mario
I did wonder if that would happen but the way we've defended with the 5 at the back I don't think we would have risked it.
If we make a change it will be Lallana, and it should be Gerrard coming off. I'm gonna go ahead and say it will be Lucas/Hendo that does.
Especially with Can as a CB still! Shocking effort by Mario there. He was never giving it to Hendo but why didn't he lace it...?
