Dont get me wrong, I like Jose Enrique, but WTF is he doing playing as a forward? Hes a defenceman.

Its like Daniel Agger slept with Rodgers' wife or something.

"Oh yeah? Have fun with Downing on your left and Lennon going down that wing all game."

either that, or he is trying to beg for new money in January by pointing out how thin the squad is

says no buys in January, plays a LB in part of a front 3....

I think thats definitely part of it except the squad isnt actually quite that thin and I dont think anyone else would be stupid enough to buy a ploy like that.

Johnson just put Bale on his ass, that was a good move.

Why is Downing behind Skrtel? Something is seriously wrong with that picture.

and that's why Enrique is wasted up front

free header, inside the 6 yard box basically, heads it back to a spurs player

Hes a defenceman! What the hell is he doing up there anyways?

That would be like Arsenal pairing Carl Jenkinson with Olivier Giroud and Lukas Podolski.

Seriously, someone should slap Rodgers across the face for this team selection.

Thats great, Liverpool are so hard up for goals they need Spurs to spot us a couple.

Enrique as a central striker hasnt had a shot on goal the entire game. Brilliant plan.

Lovely move by Enrique.

And Bale gets a yellow for diving.

and replays show that

Bale booked for diving. Having seen it again on TV, it was a ridiculous booking. Clearly a foul by Agger. #thfc

Spurs final 2-1

AVB sat too far back in the 2nd half, a team with better finishing could have gotten an equalizer

Rafa off to a great start at Chelsea

another nothing nothing result

Yeah and #LFC says that was a stonewall penalty on Gerrard in the first half. You know better than to trust the official sources when it comes to marginal calls like that.

Finally a MF clean sheet AND United scored the first goal of the match. Two things we aren't used to at this point of the season. Once again RVP with the winner. Thanks, Arsenal!
