Today we learned its going to be a long hard season. We lacked creativity and it reminded me of Brendan's first season in charge. We have no answer for teams that park the bus.

Sterling must never be rested again ever. 61m on Lallana, Markovic and Balotelli and I think they created 3 chances amongst them.

We need a defensive coach and if we have one then we need a NEW one.

Team ratings :

Mignolet - 6 - flapped at a few crosses
Manquillo - 6 - didnt do much
Lovren - 6 - had a couple of chances from corners
Moreno - 5 - really needs to concentrate
Gerrard - 5 - largely anonymous with the odd hollywood ball
Lallana - 5 - one good chance
Henderson - 7 - ran and ran both attacking and getting back
Coutinho - 5 - quiet game with some shots over from distance
Markovic - 4 - started brightly , unheard of from around 15th min
Balotelli - 5 - never looked a threat

Subs :

Sterling - 6
Lambert - 5
Borini - 3


P.s. feel free to pick my points apart
 
A 3 for Borini? Is that for making it onto the pitch because I didn't see him touch the ball once :huh:
 
We're going to see what most people said before the season started. A 2 horse race for the title and 3 or 4 clubs fighting it out for 3rd place

Probably.

Maybe..
 
It's clear that, despite spending a lot of money, Rodgers failed to address the weaknesses within the squad.
