    This was a game where we needed to go 4 at the back. Away to the league leaders.

    What's annoying is they are overrunning us in the centre and out wide<doh>

    We need either Suarez or Studge, preferably Suarez to play deep and leave Sturridge up front. no support for soko and he isn't the type of player to do it on his own out wide.

    We need to be able to work the ball up to 20 yards out but we don't have the bodies in the middle pushing up.

    We need to go 451 and get a passing game going in this second half and see if we can get a goal because we look like conceding more than scoring.

    it is worth mentioning that we have really only conceded the one good chance for Giroud for all Arsenal's possession.

    Agreed. Decent squad (back up) but not Enrique.

    Very weak on the flanks today, and thats where we should be exposing against this Arsenal...

    Need some creativity...

    can't believe redknapp there, having a go at Flannigan and saying to keep on Cissokho. Is Spice Boy watching the same game as me?

    Well that's not been great.

    Haven't seen anything in Cissokho to warrant buying him at the end of the loan stint.

    Flanagan has been alright not great but better than expected even if he has lost the ball a few times.

    No idea why the ref didn't let us take the quick free kick, he could have easily booked Sagna later on. Would rather he didn't book him and let us take the quick free kick though.

    Skrtel showing why he's not a top defender for the goal, standing and watching while the attacker was still on the move giving him the edge to get to the rebound.

    Coutinho is on for Cissokho. Back to 433 with Coutinho & Suarez either side of Sturridge?

    Fair play to Rodgers changing it early.

    Actually think the back 3 were our best players in the first half. Its the shower of **** in front of them that are letting the team down.

    Hopefully with Coutinho on we can get Suarez into the game, who was kept quiet in the 1st half
