Hope we can get our sheet together for the 2nd half. If Liverpool gets going, we're going to get torn to shreds. i.e. if they put in Suarez.
generally crummy half. still, i'm happy with nil nil. Romeu & Bertrand looking good, strikers?...i don't think we have any. also reffing=crap.
Josh = injury. It was clearly Lukaku on the tackle and it was horrible. Our strikers should not tackle anyone ever again.
Romeu and Bertrand have been good imo. Josh was good before the injury as well, but since then he was just shaking it off. Lukaku hasn't been good but hes certainly trying more than Torres is. We need to find someone who can link the midfield with our 2 strikers. Whenever Torres or Lukaku get the ball they are in very uncomfortable positions and it gets extremely hard to create something. Unsurprisingly, our best chance was the Lukaku header which came from a cross.
Nope it was Lukaku. He should have been send off. Scholes would have been proud making a tackle like that and getting away with it.
Ramirez will step up in the 2nd half. AVB should put in Mata for Malouda, is Malouda on a yellow? hopefully he won't put on kalou I would love to run onto the pitch and cut off Andy Carrolls ponytail.
Its game like this that make me think how would De Bruyne fit into the team. By what i've seen/heard from him, he would do wonders for us right now. Mata as well. I hope he gets subbed in in the second half.
No one really knows. He wanted out when we signed Mata. I thought he looked good during the preseason.
When Benayoun and Torres played together at Liverpool, Benayoun was always creative and great at unlocking defenses and getting the ball through to Torres. I don't know why we never played him/played them together much.
