Tough week for Liverpool with a lack of depth providing costly, along with some injuries and little luck from refs/linesmen. Having a 4 game span that included away fixtures against Spurs, City and Chelsea was always going to be difficult though, and picking up 6 points is about as much as could have been reasonably expected.
The second half of the season is a much kinder schedule, and if they can put these games behind them it is possible to put together a nice run. Out of the current top 8 on the table, Liverpool have played all but Man U away. There is every chance to push up the table, and with very little separation from 1 through 8 it should make for a very exciting second half of the season.
