First of all, I'm glad to be back. I have no idea who David Ginola is or who he used to be. I am my own person. I don't know what he was doing trying to say he was me.
2nd of all, I didn't like Roy's tactics save for when he brought on Ngog to open up space. We had success after that, but when he brought on Jova and Agger I thought we looked worse. We probably deserved to be battered that game.
Konchesky was solid against Nani, but lost him a few times backpost and we almost conceded. Wasn't strong getting forward, passes were poor generally speaking and I thought Aurelio or Insua would have done better.
Poulsen was terrible. Made about 1 good challenge in the 76th and had a decent ball to Meireles but other than that dreadful. I remember him chasing Berbatov, Berbatov giving him a nudge and then Poulsen fall way off. His passing was way off, his challenges were weak and far between and he offered little.
Maxi and Cole were irrelevant most of the match. Cole had the one good ball to Torres before the pen, but he tries too much fancy footwork and forgets to move forward or gets stuffed.
Agger should be starting at CB every week, Carragher isn't and hasn't been a very good CB since 2 seasons ago.
How about Lucas gents? Belter against Steaeu. As well he played 90 in the last 3 times we've beaten United and every time against them he was sublime.
