We miss Cissokho on the left, the assist for shelveys goal consisted of bony? running straigh across our defence from the right..

Aly would have won the ball rather than let him walk along the 18yard line with it.

What would we do without the Studge?

Y couldn't u play like this against us? Or were we just so bad. Arsenal that is.

As I've said many times. Stevie is not a holding midfield player. He's a play maker

Now, will someone hide that self-destruct button please

We need a pacy DM

Slow centre backs not pushing up to help midfield press. I hope Sakho comes back soon. .

Lars bender?

I love all the hatred for Gerrard as DM here. forget the fact that he's been one of our best players in recent weeks. But no, everyone knew we'd struggle cos he's in there


hes had 3 good games, 4 poor ones.

Take Phillippe off and put Allen on in this game

What we need is that man Javier Mascherano back..stupid Barca ruining him at centre half

we never replaced masch

Gerrard has played well in his new role but people who had the opinion he can't play there have been waiting until he hasn't had a great game to voice the I told you so opinion. No mention of how good he was in the other games.

What has he done besides the goal? Leaves so much space in the middle.

either Gerrard and Hendo are forgetting to track back or Rodgers has told them to push forward

the gap behind them is massive.

Rodgers needs to adjust it at HT

Brendan is still an idealist in many respects, a great contrast to Mourinho who is geared to results first flashy football second. Still I prefer Brendan he has us scoring goals for fun!

hes playing more the pirlo role, never will be a proper dm, thats not an insult, its just not his game.

What do people expect, when Hendo goes forward it leaves Gerrard 1 against 3 Swansea players on the counter

He can't mark them all, we need more numbers in the centre

Exactly, we are getting over run more often than not, it's no good to have one game where everything goes your way if the next you get hammered

I think the full backs are pushing too high up.

hahaah its hendos fault, typical.

One full back needs to push up. More so Johnson than Flanno

Gerrard has played well in his new role but people who had the opinion he can't play there have been waiting until he hasn't had a great game to voice the I told you so opinion. No mention of how good he was in the other games.

Exactly

The smart thing to do is to put a player on him which Swansea have done (Shelvey).

He needs a hand in their and as we are leading Henderson needs to be a little more disciplined with his forward runs.

Gerrard for me has been superb at DM. It's more to do with Coutinho playing that leaves us so open imo as he's playing as part of that 3 in midfield but he plays so far forward it leaves gaps for the opposition to run into. BR has to adjust it somehow so that if we do play SSS&C that defensive solidity is still there

We are missing cissokho on the left, they are attacking best down their right..
