Absolutely disgusts me, when I see us controlling the game for nearly the whole half, then we make a couple mistakes and we get punished.
The first goal, Finnan was brought down and could not contest the ball. Mistake 1!! Poll missed that, and we should take him to the cleaners.
Mistake 2!! Alonso was MANHANDLED and brought down in the lead up to their second goal. Given that Carra should have stomped through that ball and sent it into the stands, Poll should never have allowed that play to continue when we had an obvious free.
Mistake 3!! Fowler was clipped in the box. PENALTY, no doubt. If that was ManUre, they would have been paid one.
Absolutely Sickens Me.
Gerrard was quiet, but has come into the fray in the last 20 mins. Carra and Hyypia need to gel again, and dang quick!
Garcia has done well, but not enough, and is lost switching flanks. Fowler has been ok, but always double teamed. Crouch is continously manhandled and its being missed by Poll.Get Diggler in there and mix it up a bit. Get over Bellamy not playing, he's being rested for a very important Euro game and the Cheatski game. We got a far superior team that can cope with that, so enough of the Bellamy whinging!!
As soon as we start playing at their level and become aggressive to the ball, we get penalised. This is the way the game is being played, get in there with two feet challenges. That'll stop the bluesh.ite!
I still think we have made the best chances, and if we tweak the back line, we can still pinch it 3-2. Bring Couit on, and let's attack the b@stards!!
CMON YOU REDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
