Norwich (A) Post Match

[bradsdad]

this game showed the lack of quality we have in the squad as a whole and how important Henderson is ... need to sort this out now we in the CL

Henderon was a big loss today. Fingers crossed Sturridge is back next week which will allow either lucas or Allen to drop back to the bench.

Yip, think at moment Allen is better option.

Glen ain't that bad, like every player he just has occasional bad games. Don't forget the blinders he's had this season as well

Missed sturridge more today than henderson imo

Not the best performance but the Mancs and Chelsea in the past have had numerous similar performances on their way to multiple league championships.

"Winning spirit" "Winning ugly" etc etc were the phrases uttered when they used to do this.

Today's performance was bad for our hearts. Norwich played very very well. It is a tough challenge to overcome - a PL team playing for their lives. But we got the job done.

He'd want to take them ****ing off though......must be hard to play FB like that.

I disagree about Johnson. He was appallingly sloppy with the ball. He is capable even on a mediocre day of being so much better than that, and as a senior player we have to expect more in a situation like that. Lucas looked off the pace and not comfortable with the formation. Johnson, unless he's carrying an injury, was simply shocking.

I didn't think he was good but didn't see anything so awful. I think a lot of his and sakho's problems on the ball came from the midfield not making space. Frequently I though there were no options on for defenders and when the ball was in midfield that didn't improve a lot. For me Gerrard and coutinho were as culpable as anyone. The one player who did really well after the first 20 for me was sterling.

We looked a nervous team. We did enough though.

Haha, this thread. You (mostly) bunch of moaning miserable mentalists.

If you can't enjoy being 5 points clear with 3 games to go, and top 3 (ahead of our most hopeful target as recently as February), well you'll continue to entertain me at least.

When you lose or drop points in these close games its pretty much pressure getting to you. But if you hold on surely its character building?

There was one part where Johnson was standing off and Rodgers motioned to him to move in, which he finally did. He never presses much and needs to be reminded to do so.
